Experts from the colleges of education and universities will be invited to the school to give talks on the change.

A trial scheme will be implemented in the junior forms next October and November to test the change and to ensure a smooth transition.

Under the proposal of the Education Commission's Report No 4, all secondary schools will have to choose between English and Chinese for their medium of instruction by September 1994.

Principal Mr Mak Siu-ming said the school was recommended by the Education Department to make the switch.
