Helping to Improve the Effectiveness of Schools The University's Faculty of Education is where expertise i n education is concentrated. It has done a lot to foster communication w i t h local schools, understand their needs, help train teachers, and enhance school effectiveness. As the dean of the faculty Prof. Stephen Chung pointed out, ' The Faculty of Education is not only a teaching and research unit, it is also where schools go to for help. We can readily provide them w i t h support and professional services. Hong Kong students benefit f rom our care long before they enter university gates.' 15
