2013 Direct School Admission (DSA) Exercise - Admission to Year One 2014
Dunman High School is inviting promising Primary Six students to join our Dunman High Programme (DHP) in January 2014. Our 6-year Integrated Programme prepares the students for the A-Level Examinations without them having to go through the O-Level Examinations. The programme provides academically talented students with an enriched curriculum that aims to: develop intellectual depth and higher level thinking; inculcate active citizenry; develop a global outlook; cultivate an enterprising spirit; build strong bilingual proficiency; and gain a deep understanding of China and Chinese culture. DHP students are leaders equipped with skills to succeed in the future, in particular, the new Asian era.
