The first sentence is still confusing - was it the first secondary school founded by a government anywhere, or just in Hong Kong? - RedWordSmith 17:17, 9 Oct 2004 (UTC)

First one by the colonial government of Hong Kong. It was I think also the first English grammar school founded in Asia but I have to check on this.

The first English grammar school is perhaps St. Paul's College. — Instantnood 15:47, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)

I've reworded the introduction. Hope it's clearer now. Aranherunar 07:47, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Number of As

May I know if there is any sources providing number of As per student by year for secondary schools in Hong Kong? — Instantnood 15:47, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)

what about A-level? and the # of As from 1975-1990. I believe QC also has the most 9A then.

[edit] Section "Brief History"

I suggest changing it to "History". "Brief History" sounds like a thing that existed only for a few months - Queen's College has been around for over a century. Aranherunar 07:36, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Misleading subtitle

I think 'commited crime' is quite misleading. I suggest 'criticism' instead. Yfjonas

Thanks for the suggestion, but I think 'commited crime' is a record subtitle in a historical way. So I think changing it into "Student's Crime History" would be more appropriate and prevent any misleading. Narold 13:39, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Nice suggestion. How is it criticism that the students committed crimes? Did they attack the herbalist to criticise the school? Aran|heru|nar 15:37, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

I think all kind of school history should be included. Whatever is about the good or the bad side. We should base on neutral standpoint to make it clear. Narold 06:31, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
