Since September 2000, schools in Hong Kong have begun implementing the system of school-based management (SBM), and physical education (PE) has been established as one of the eight Key Learning Areas under the current education reform. Schools are now expending greater efforts on training athletes and deploying greater resources to help student-athletes realise their potential. Jockey Club Ti-I College is a pioneer of SBM in PE and other subjects and has accumulated invaluable experience in nurturing athletes. Many of its graduates have become top athletes in Hong Kong, and budding athletes are being nurtured every year. This paper attempts to briefly describe the uniqueness and special features of Jockey Club Ti-I College and what the school has done to nurture student-athletes under SBM in Hong Kong.
香港的學校已於2000年實施校本管理，而體育科更成為八個學習領域的其中一環，學校亦在訓練方面投放更多資源。賽馬會體藝中學是校本管理的先鋒，在體育及其他方面累積了不少經驗，學校每年不斷培育運動員，不少體藝畢業生更成為精英運動員。本文將介紹賽馬會體藝中學的特色，以及分享培育體育人才的經驗。

This paper adopts a qualitative approach to study the perceptions of six secondary teachers from two schools with a similar background and history of school-based management (SBM). The study aims to explore the views of the teachers in the following areas: changes in school administration and the structure of the school under SBM; changes in the role of teachers and the activities of the Parent-Teacher Associations; the challenges facing principals; and teachers' worries and concerns under SBM. The study is significant as it supplements the limited number of researches on the roles of teachers and principals under SBM in Hong Kong. As serving teachers now play increasingly important roles in schools and work closely with their principals in administrative and educational matters, they can provide invaluable insights into the new era of change.
