(E) Application for “2024/25 Registration Certificate for KG admission”
1. According to the “Free Quality Kindergarten Education Scheme” (hereafter referred to as
“Scheme”) that implemented by the Government. Each child who can receive education in
Hong Kong will only be issued a registration document and all Scheme-KGs can only admit
students holding a valid registration document.
2. Parents are required to submit an application for the “Registration Certificate for
Kindergarten Admission” (hereafter referred as “RC”) to EDB from September to
November 2022. The “RC” will be open for applications from September 2022. At
the same time, EDB will announce and upload the details of application onto EDB’s
website (https://www.edb.gov.hk). Upon receipt of the applications with all necessary
information and documents provided, EDB will generally take six to eight weeks to
complete processing of the applications and issue the “RC” to applicants who are
eligible for receiving subsidy under the Scheme by post. If a student cannot obtain an
“RC” as he/she can receive education in Hong Kong but is not eligible for receiving
subsidy under the Scheme, EDB will then issue a“Kindergarten Admission Pass”
(hereafter referred to as “AP”) to the student concerned for registration and admission
to a Scheme-KG but the parents concerned are required to pay full school fees before
deduction of subsidy under the Scheme as shown on the Fees Certificate of the KG to
which the child is admitted.
3. According to the mechanism of the Education Bureau providing free quality kindergarten
education, the validity period of the “Registration Certificate”is generally three years. If
parents arrange for their children to receive kindergarten education for more than three
years, they are generally required to pay the full tuition fee before deduction of the scheme
subsidy. Under special circumstances (for example, relevant registered medical practitioners
or professionals have certified that the children have special needs, so that their years of
study in kindergartens are longer than the normal three years), parents may apply to the
Education Bureau to extend the validity period of the “Registration Certificate”.
Kindergartens should notify parents by letter to tell the matters they need to pay attention
to when parents express their intention to arrange for their children to receive kindergarten
education for more than three years.
