Opening a New Chapter by Inheriting the Past: Analysing the Educational Dimension of Hong Kong SAR's New Developmental Horizon through Comparing the Policy Addresses of the Past Two Years

In the past two years, Hong Kong SAR has gradually entered a critical period of transition from governance to prosperity, inheriting the past and opening a new chapter in its development. The education dimension of the three policy addresses in the past two years shows that the policy priorities of the two governments show a continuous context on the one hand, which is manifested in the common focus of promoting talent introduction, strengthening national education, paying attention to special groups, diversifying advanced paths, supporting teachers' teaching, and developing scientific and technological innovation undertakings. On the other hand, the 2022 and 2023 Policy Addresses of the new-term Government highlighted many innovative measures, such as focusing on STEAM education, attracting foreign talents more aggressively, strengthening teacher management, focusing on the concept of patriotism and love for Hong Kong, innovating vocational and secondary education, and increasing the integration of the Greater Bay Area. Facing the new chapter of future development, it is necessary to comprehensively improve the government's governance capacity and governance level, continue to carry out national education in depth, attach importance to the development and construction of basic education, unite social synergy in the field of education, and promote the integration of education in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
