Abstract

In 2007, a School-based Assessment (SBA) component combining the assessment of speaking with an extensive reading/viewing program was introduced into the Hong Kong Certificate of Education Examination (HKCEE). Having operated on a trial basis for several years, SBA is now fully integrated in the new secondary school exit examination, the Hong Kong Diploma of Education Examination (HKDSE), since 2012.
