Zhiwei Education Plan: New Opportunities for AI Education in Primary and Secondary Schools

Following the Chief Executive's emphasis on the importance of STEAM education in the 2024 Policy Address, the Hong Kong Education Bureau officially issued a circular (No. 227/2024) on October 25, 2024, launching a program called... "AI for Science" A special funding plan.

This is a significant milestone for science heads in all secondary schools in Hong Kong—AI has officially transformed from an adjunct to "Information Technology" into a core subject. Junior High School Science The core teaching tool.

However, when faced with a new circular, many teachers' first reactions are: "What can this money buy?", "What homework does the school require?", and "Do I have time to process it?"

Vinci AI has compiled this for you. One-stop application and implementation guideThis will help you clarify the details and make good use of resources.

Part 1: Plan Details – Who is this money for?

1. Plan Objectives and Targets

The "Wisdom as a Theory" project is a project aimed at... Junior High School Science (S1-S3) The pilot program has only one core objective:Support science teachers in mastering AI and integrating it into their daily classrooms..

• Eligible schools: All publicly subsidized secondary schools in Hong Kong (including government, subsidized, per-place grant and direct subsidy secondary schools).

• Funding amount: Each school passed by one pen $100,000 (HKD 100,000).

• Validity period: Once approved, it can be used across academic years, until... August 31, 2027.

2. Where can the money be spent? (This is crucial!)

This is the part that schools are most likely to misunderstand. The education bureau hopes this money will be invested in... "People (teachers)" 　and　 "Knowledge (Resources)" It refers to the "on" rather than the "hardware".

✅ You can (and should) use it for:

1. Teacher professional training: Arrange for science teachers to enroll in short courses, lectures, or workshops offered by colleges, universities, or professional organizations.

2. School-based support program: Collaborate with tertiary institutions or professional organizations to jointly develop teaching materials or curriculum plans (the maximum for this project is $50,000).

❌ You "cannot" use this for:

• Purchase tablets, computers, or general electronic devices.

• Purchase general AI software licenses or scientific teaching aids.

• Laboratory renovation project.

• Subsidize students or parents to attend courses.

💡 Expert Interpretation: The Education Bureau's signal is clear—Don't buy an iPad, buy a "teaching methodology".Instead of buying software that will become obsolete in a year, it's better to invest in an AI skill that can improve teachers' lesson preparation efficiency in the long run.

Part Two: The School's Commitment – What to Do with the Funding?

This grant is not a "free lunch"; schools must commit to completing the following when applying: The three major KPIs (Key Performance Indicators):

1. Resource output: Minimal Development 2 Examples or resources for applying AI in junior high school science teaching.

2. Classroom Practice: The fewest 1 time Open classes or demonstration classes (either within or outside the school).

3. Experience transfer: The fewest 1 time Experience sharing session.

For busy science teachers, designing these AI lesson plans and preparing open classes from scratch is undoubtedly a huge administrative burden.

Part 3: How Vinci AI can help you solve your problems in one stop?

Vinci AI understands teachers' pain points. We have partnered with... University expert teamA system was designed that fully meets the requirements for the allowance and canSolution to directly generate the above KPIs.
