Round 2 of the WYHK-DSS Consultation (Posted on 12th October, 2017)
We would like to thank all stakeholders who have given their valuable comments during the Round 1 Consultation! All comments and feedbacks collected have been classified and summarized for consideration by the Jesuit Education Board (JEB). The raw comments and feedbacks were also available to JEB members for their inspection.
After two meetings of careful deliberation and discernment, the JEB decided that the school should proceed to Round 2 of the Consultation on the proposition that WYHK be switched to the DSS mode of operation along the lines of the model contained in a revised proposal. It also considered key issues related to the specific DSS model to be adopted and the consultation method, including school fee levels and the approach in conducting stakeholders’ surveys at the end of the exercise.
Based on the direction of the JEB, Round 2 Consultation will consist of:
1) Release of
a.The Interim Consultation Report(http://web.wahyan.edu.hk/attachments/article/359/Intrim%20Consultation%20Report.pdf), and
b.The revised WYHK DSS proposal (http://web.wahyan.edu.hk/attachments/article/359/Consultation%20Document%20(Revised).pdf)
2) Arrangements for Feedback / Consultation Sessions with stakeholders
3) Collection of Stakeholders’ views subsequent to 1) and 2)
The JEB will then discuss the feedbacks collected in this round of consultation and decide on whether or not to submit an application to the EDB.
Thank you once again for your sincere interest in the future development of our school. The issue at hand is complex. It is important that we remain calm, objective and open-minded and try to gain better understanding of the context of the school (with the myriad factors it needs to balance), the evolution of the education scene in Hong Kong in the years to come, as well as the detailed contents of the DSS proposal before passing our judgement. You are thus strongly encouraged to read the two documents uploaded and attend the upcoming consultation sessions.
Yours faithfully,

有關香港華仁書院建議申請轉為直資辦學之次輪諮詢 (張貼日期: 2017年10月12日)
我們感謝各持份者於首輪諮詢階段提供不少寶貴的意見！校方已將所有收集之意見分類及整合予耶穌會Jesuit Education Board (JEB) 作出考慮。同時，所有回饋及意見的原稿亦有呈交予JEB成員檢視。
JEB經過兩次會議，審慎考慮首階段所收集的意見後，要求校方就現有諮詢文件的直資模式作出某些調整，然後展開次輪諮詢。JEB亦同時就申請轉為直資辦學模式的具體細節及諮詢形式，包括學費水平及持份者意見調查所應採取的方式作出指引。
根據JEB的指示，次輪諮詢階段應包括:
1) 公布
a. 首輪諮詢階段後的中期諮詢報告(http://web.wahyan.edu.hk/attachments/article/359/Intrim%20Consultation%20Report.pdf)，及
b. 經調整的香港華仁書院直資計劃建議書(http://web.wahyan.edu.hk/attachments/article/359/Consultation%20Document%20(Revised).pdf)
2) 安排次輪諮詢會
3) 隨1)及2)後，收集各持份者之意見
JEB將會研究次輪諮詢所收集到之意見，然後決定會否向教育局遞交轉為直資辦學之申請。
我們再次衷心感謝閣下對學校未來發展的關心。擺在我們面前的議題是複雜的，希望大家都能秉持冷靜丶客觀和開放的態度，嘗試在作出判斷前深入了解學校的處景（包括需要平衡的各種因素）丶香港教育在未來可能的演變進程及港華直資計劃建議書的詳細內容。因此，我們懇切鼓勵閣下仔細閱讀已經上傳的兩份文件，並參加即將舉行的諮詢會。
