On 28th of June, 2014 Mr Silva presented the paper “Spanish in Secondary Education in Hong Kong. Law Ting Pong Secondary School”, at the II Conference for Primary and Secondary Teachers of Spanish in China.
The paper was co-authored by the teachers at LTPSS Spanish Department, and has been accepted for publication at the reputable journal “Tinta China”.
Spanish language was introduced in LTPSS in 2008, first as a CCA. A year later became a subject in Junior School, and has been also included in the NSS catalogue of electives, eligible as a Category C language for DSE. LTPSS is a leading school in Hong Kong in the field of Spanish as a foreign language, only comparable with the best international schools.
In its second edition, this annual Conference was held at the Education Office of the Embassy of Spain in Beijing. A numerous group of local and foreign primary and secondary school teachers from all over China attended and showed great interest in the academic strategies LTPSS puts into place for the development of the subject.
