Recognitions from SCOLAR and EDB
The MATESOL programme is recognised by The Standing Committee on Language Education and Research (SCOLAR) as English language major degree programme; it is also included in the list of “Programmes Accepted for Grants under the Professional Development Incentive Grant Scheme for Language Teachers”. MATESOL graduates with relevant teacher training will be eligible to apply for full exemption from the Language Proficiency Requirement (LPR) for English Language, which must be met by all English teachers holding a regular post in a public sector school or a local private primary/secondary day school offering a formal curriculum in Hong Kong.
For details about the recognition and LPR, please visit the websites of Education Bureau & SCOLAR.
