About

Description
While Hong Kong has one of the most developed education systems in the world, education inequity persists and is often overlooked. Education resources are unequally distributed along socioeconomic lines. When a student’s socioeconomic background dictates their access to quality education and resources for pursuing alternative pathways, education no longer works as an important means for underprivileged students to achieve upward social mobility. Our Vision All Children In Hong Kong Have Equal Opportunity To Learn, Grow And Realize Their Potential
For over 25 years FOCUS has been a trusted resource for Hong Kong parents, educators and medical professionals seeking to learn how to better support the academic and social lives of children with mainstream learning differences. FOCUS aims to improve educational and life outcomes of children with AD/HD and SpLD by expanding understanding and raising awareness of what it means to have a mind that learns differently Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
