St. Paul's Secondary School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

St. Paul's Secondary School (SPSS, Traditional Chinese: 聖保祿中學) is a Catholic girls' secondary school in Ventris Road, Happy Valley, Hong Kong. It was founded in 1960 by the sisters of St. Paul de Chartres as an extension of St. Paul's Convent School to meet the growing needs of science education of girls in Hong Kong. Its former principal, Rev. Sr. Damian Lai, has retired in 2006. Her job was replaced by the vice-principal, Ms. D. Wu.

There are five classes in each of Form 1 to Form 5, and three classes in each of Form 6 and Form 7, constituting a total of 31 classes. Among the 10 classes in Form 4 and 5, 6 of them are art classes and 4 of them are science classes.

Half of the Form 1 students come from St. Paul's Primary Catholic School and the rest come from other primary schools. All Form 4 and Form 6 places are filled by its own qualified students.
