History
= Establishment (1991)
=
The College was established on 26 July 1991 as a co-educational college to focus on Hong Kong A-level Examinations. It was Hong Kong's first and only government-subsidised sixth form school, on the former premises of Po Leung Kuk Wu Chung College, which had relocated to Sha Tin. In its first year, the school offered 16 disciplines. Use of English was the only compulsory module. The social sciences stream offered economics, principles of accounts, pure mathematics, business studies, and geography. Dr. Chan Siu Kui Darnay was the founding headmaster, previously having served as the head of Po Leung Kuk Tang Yuk Tien College in Tuen Mun.
It opened on 12 March 1992.
The official ceremony for graduation includes the speech days. The first speech day was held on 8 May 1993, officiated by Professor Gungwu Wang, CBE, then vice-chancellor of The University of Hong Kong. It developed into a tradition for the College's founding father, His Excellency Sultan Vicwood KT Chong (MBE, JP, Doctor of Laws), to hand out diplomas to honourable graduates.
= Academic Excellence
=
The College became a symbol of academic excellence, with positive results in Hong Kong A-level Examinations and high admission scores. Pass rates for all subjects have never been below the Hong Kong average, while credit rates for all subjects have been significantly above those of Hong Kong's since 1995.
Education
The College started offering joint-degree programmes with overseas universities such as The University of Victoria, Canada and The University of Ballarat, Australia in 1996. Then headmaster, Dr Chan, noted when he signed the agreement with the vice-chancellor of Ballarat University, Professor David James, that the College had decided upon such direction due to the qualifications of its academic team.
In 2000, the College was in preparation to add community college courses, offering associate degree courses with the first graduation held in May 2004.
