Dropping Out of School 輟學


鏗鏘集:輟學 Dropping Out of School

在現行法例下,6 歲至 15 歲兒童必須在學校就學,如學生連續缺課七天,便會被定義為「缺課」,學校必須呈報。根據教育局提供的最新數字,目前全港有逾5000個缺課個案,創九年新高。不過,部分每星期只上課一、兩天,甚至幾小時的學童,便不計算在內。有處理輟學學童問題的青年機構表示,這些潛在個案比想像嚴重。學生斷續缺課的時間越長,便越難重新融入學校生活,過去政府及各社福機構一直為缺課學童提供不同類型支援及課程,成效怎樣?本集會一一探討。

Under current laws, children aged 6 to 15 must attend school. If a student is absent from school for seven consecutive days, he or she will be defined as "absent" and the school must report it. According to the latest figures provided by the Education Bureau, there are currently more than 5,000 cases of absenteeism in Hong Kong, a nine-year high. However, some students who only attend classes one or two days a week, or even a few hours, are not counted. Youth organizations that deal with the problem of dropouts say that these potential cases are more serious than imagined. The longer students are absent from school, the more difficult it is for them to reintegrate into school life. In the past, the government and various social welfare organizations have been providing different types of support and courses for absent students. What are the results? This episode will explore them one by one.

Hong Kong Funeral Community  紅磡殯儀社區

深入紅磡殯儀社區 大眾避忌的殯儀從業員生活日常

紅磡有一個區域,自帶一種生人勿近不敢打擾的感覺,連街坊都覺得沒甚麼不好走進來怕不吉利。40年代港英政府籌建和合石墳場應付葬地不足的問題,當年交通不方便和合石又離市區很遠,為了方便市民和先人告別,政府就在現在理工大學的位置興建了永別亭殯儀廳,慢慢令長生店花店開始聚集。以機利士南路同蕪湖街為界,中間的寶其利街、曲街、必嘉街至到世界殯儀館後面的安靜道,因為高度集中殯儀行業在這個長方形內,所以形成一個獨有的殯儀社區和生態。

今集《700萬種生活》,跟著入行成為殯儀策劃師10年的阿溡,深入看看這個一般人不想走進去,但每個人遲早都會體驗的殯儀社區。

In-depth study of the funeral community in Hung Hom: the daily life of funeral practitioners that are avoided by the public

There is an area in Hung Hom that has a sense of "keep away from strangers and don't dare to disturb them". Even the neighbors think there is nothing wrong with entering for fear of bad luck. In the 1940s, the British Hong Kong government planned to build Wo Hop Shek Cemetery to cope with the problem of insufficient burial land. At that time, transportation was inconvenient and Wo Hop Shek was far away from the city. In order to facilitate citizens to bid farewell to their ancestors, the government built the Yongbieting Funeral Hall at the current location of the Polytechnic University, which gradually attracted the gathering of Changshengdian and flower shops. With Gillies Road South and Wuhu Street as the boundary, the middle Bulkeley Street, Qu Street, and Baker Street to Anjing Road behind the World Funeral Home, because the funeral industry is highly concentrated in this rectangle, it has formed a unique funeral community and ecology.
