Message from the Head

Welcome to the Department of Special Education and Counselling
 

Welcome to Our Department

We are committed to supporting individuals with diverse educational needs and supports across the lifespan—from early childhood through adulthood and into later life—as well as the caregivers, educators, and practitioners who support them. Our work promotes inclusive and special education, counselling, and lifelong learning, while nurturing compassionate educators and contributing to impactful academic research. 

 

Our expertise spans a wide range of fields, including special and inclusive education, speech-language pathology, guidance and counselling, and educational neuroscience. Through these areas, we offer high-quality education and training that prepares students to become skilled professionals equipped to serve diverse populations——with empathy and excellence.

 

We believe education is a lifelong journey. While it opens doors to opportunity, it is the support of others that helps us move forward. This belief grounds our commitment to building inclusive environments where everyone—regardless of age, ability, or background—has the chance to thrive.

 

Our academic and teaching staff are dedicated to advancing inclusive practices through innovative research, progressive teaching methods, and strong community engagement. We value interdisciplinary collaboration and global perspectives, working together to expand the reach and impact of our work.

 

We walk alongside all stakeholders—students, educators, caregivers, and community members. Together, we can build a more inclusive, supportive, and equitable society that celebrates lifelong learning and personal growth.

 

We invite you to explore our diverse programmes and see how our department can support your educational goals, whether you're beginning your journey or continuing it in later life. For more information, please contact us at secenq@eduhk.hk.

 

We look forward to supporting you and hope you find inspiration and purpose in your lifelong journey toward inclusion and success.

 

Sincerely,

Professor Jennifer Jolly
Head, Department of Special Education and Counselling
