This paper reports the findings of a study which investigates primary school teachers' receptivity to changes in the Target Oriented Curriculums (TOC) and General Studies (GS) in Hong Kong. In the study, survey was employed. Findings reveal that primary school teachers hold positive attitudes towards GS, but their behavioral intentions towards implementing TOC tend to be negative. Further, multivariate analyses show that teachers' perceptions of the two curriculum changes are significantly different.
