华文语文特选课程 Chinese Language Elective Programme (CLEP)

The Chinese Language Elective Programme at Secondary Level (CLEP-Sec) is introduced by the Ministry of Education to be implemented from 2020. It aims to nurture promising students to attain a high level of language proficiency in Chinese, and enhance their understanding of Chinese literature. The programme also aims to develop these students to become effectively bilingual so as to better serve the needs of our nation.

为了栽培精通双语的人才，提高学生的华文水平和文学素养，教育部在2020年开办中学华文语文特选课程（简称中学语特），鼓励对华文和华文文学有浓厚兴趣的中学高年级学生加入。

PROGRAMME DETAILS

Curriculum Content 课程内容

The duration of the programme is two years. All students enrolled in CLEP-Sec must offer O Level Literature in Chinese, in either full or elective Chinese Language Literature.

本课程为期两年。所有中学语特学生必须修读‘O’水准华文文学（完整或配对课程）。

Programme Activities 深广活动

CLEP-Sec students will jointly attend two signature activities organised by MOE. A one to two-day camp will be held locally during the June holidays of Secondary 3 with a focus on Post-Secondary Educational Institutions’ (PSEI) MTL Pathways and CL-related interests. A one to two-week overseas immersion programme will be organised towards the end of Secondary 3.

Students will also participate in school-based activities and programmes such as Literary lectures, Meet-the-Author sessions, enrichment workshops, project work competition etc.
