教育改革特別強調我們的學生除了在課堂裡學習以外，更需要走出學校，在真實的環境中學習，拓闊學習的空間。香港輔導教師協會及教育署在27年前已開始舉行「暑期工作體驗計劃」，讓中五的同學在不同的工商機構工作，體驗工作世界的苦與樂。在每年的結業頒獎典禮中，學生們都異口同聲地表示此計劃令他們大開眼界，獲益良多。
The Education Reform emphasizes on the lifelong learning opportunities enabling a holistic development of the person. The Summer Work Experience Scheme provides for learning in contexts that cannot be offered during classroom tailored learning. The Hong Kong Association of Careers Masters and Guidance Masters, together with the Education Department, has organized the Summer Work Experience Scheme for the past 27 years. It allows Secondary 5 students to work in different organizations during the summer. Students find it an eye-opening opportunity to understand various work related issues.
