Yes. For those who want to work after Form Five, it makes sense to work right after the HKCEE.

And for those who want to take the

A-Levels, money earned over summer can go towards Form Six and Seven tuition fees. This will lessen the financial pressure on families.

Only about one third of Form Five students can get into Form Six. For the rest, diploma courses would be the choice.

Those who do not plan to go to university can get an impression of the work they are interested in over the summer holidays.

After trying, they would be able to find out what abilities they lack. Then when they are taking diploma courses, they can pay special attention .
