What is SLP?

• Provide supplementary information on secondary
  school leavers competencies and specialties, for
  giving a fuller picture of the students, in terms
  of whole person development.
• Under the NSS education, students should be
  encouraged to build up a profile to record and
  reflect on their learning experiences and
  achievements.
• It is both a learning tool and a means to
  demonstrate personal development and the expected
  qualities of student.

Example on OLE programme description Visits to
the elderly home(Which one do you prefer?)

• Students have opportunities to learn how to
  serve as volunteers in elderly homes. Three
  visits have been scheduled over the senior
  secondary years.

homes, such as offering variety shows and
conducting activities. Through the experience,
students enhance their communication skills and
develop sense of empathy for the elderly.

An example on OLE Programme Description
Cultural Services Volunteers Scheme
The Scheme is initiated by Leisure and Cultural Services Department. School helps train up students to provide voluntary service to promote arts and culture. This broadens students horizon and awareness of the need to raise the quality of humanities. In the process, students enhance their leadership, communication skills and creativity.
35
An example on Students Self-account
I enjoy very much to get along with people Among the activities I joined previously, the most impressive one was the Cultural Services Volunteers Scheme. It provided a chance for me to broaden my horizon and realize the importance of collaboration with people of different cultures to make a better world in future. This has encouraged me to know more about people and to cater for their needs. Therefore, I have set a career goal to engage in marketing research and service business.
