The 22 projects under the "e-Learning Ancillary Facilities Programme " will be released in batches starting from 2025. At that time, the Quality Education Fund (QEF) will provide funding for all publicly funded schools in Hong Kong to order the relevant projects, aiming to enhance the quality of e-learning support and assist schools in developing innovative technology.

To this end, we have specially established a School Trial Program to encourage schools to understand the features of the projects before ordering. The project team will provide technical support to schools interested in participating in the trial program, allowing them to test the projects in advance. The project team will also collect user feedback to continuously improve the projects.

There are a total of 11 projects available for the first batch of the trial program. If you wish to trial other projects, please stay tuned for updates on this website.

For details and information about the projects, please visit the "Quality Education Fund e-Learning Ancillary Facilities Programme" webpage.
