Po Leung Kuk Vicwood K. T. Chong Sixth Form College (KTC) is a government-subsidised sixth form college in Kowloon, Hong Kong. It was established on 26 July 1991 with the vision to provide quality education to secondary pupils matriculating after Hong Kong Certificate of Education Examination, and prepares pupils for the Hong Kong Advanced Level Examination. The continuing education sector of the College also provides adult education and once offered associate degree courses. The College also offered joint-degree courses with Australian university The University of Ballarat in 1996, and The University of Victoria later.
Being the first and only sixth form college in Hong Kong, the College reformed its structure for the new Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education curricula. It is now offering education to form four to form six pupils (24 classes). Its main feeder is Po Leung Kuk Tong Nai Kan Junior Secondary College.
The current headmaster of the College is Dr Lee Poon Shing, former headmaster of Fukien Secondary School Affiliated School and vice-president (teaching and learning) and Dean of humanities of GT (Ellen Yeung) College. The current president and supervisor is The Honourable Ms Angela Leong On-kei, also the current chairman of Po Leung Kuk.
The College was established on 26 July 1991 as a co-educational college which focused on the Hong Kong A-level Examinations. It was Hong Kong's first government-subsidised sixth form school, on the former premises of Po Leung Kuk Wu Chung College, which had relocated to Sha Tin. The site was originally that of a primary school. In its first year, the school offered a total of 16 disciplines with Use of English being the only compulsory module. The social sciences stream of the College was highly innovative, offering economics, principles of accounts, pure mathematics, business studies, and geography. Dr Darnay Chan was the first headmaster of the College, previously having been the head of Po Leung Kuk Tang Yuk Tien College in Tuen Mun.
