334 Scheme


The 3-3-4 Scheme is the academic structure for senior secondary education and higher education in Hong Kong. This scheme began in the 2009 school year. By 2012, HKDSE replaced HKCEE (O'Level) and HKALE (A'Level).

Its core subjects are Chinese language, English language, mathematics and Liberal studies, with three elective subjects. It is different from the old curriculum because students under this new academic structure only receive three years of senior secondary education and four years of university education. In order to move on to university education, students must get a pass on those four core subjects in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE).

As a result, there is no more needs for a genuine sixth form college. The first and now only such college in Hong Kong, PLK Vicwood KT Chong Sixth Form College, is thus changed to mostly a senior secondary college.
