The education profession is similar to an ocean-liner in motion, requiring a co-operative spirit among the crew members if it is to sail through the rough sea. In the collaboration between the Institute and the local school community, we can compare the partnership model to members playing different roles in steering the ocean-liner ahead. The "Partnership for Small Class Teaching Development Scheme", being one of the initiatives under the "Small Class Teaching Research and Development Project", is an example of just such a collaborative effort. The collaboration aims to bring about a new horizon in education among participating members, through experience sharing and the study of real-life situations in regard to small class teaching.

Eight schools participated in the Scheme as partners, including Sam Shui Natives Association School, North Point Government Primary AM School, Sir Robert Black College of Education Past Students' Association Ho Sau Ki School, Sung Tak School, P.O.H. Chan Kwok Wai Primary School, San Wui Commercial Society School, S.K.H. Yat Sau Primary School and Holy Family School. For its fifth exchange activity, participating members of the Scheme met at Sung Tak School in Tai Po to conduct an observation class, which was followed by a discussion session on "Co-operative Learning".
