Hoi Ping Chamber of Commerce Secondary School was founded in 1973 as a co-educational aided school. The Alumni Association was established in 1981. The Students' Union and the Parent-Teacher Association were set up in 1987 and 1999 respectively. Hoi Ping has long been a Band 1 school in Kowloon City district.
In 1998, its use of English as the Medium of Instruction was approved by the Education Department of the HKSAR.
To facilitate progress, the school set up the School Development Team in 2002. Based on the school's "Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats" analysis and their teachers' opinions, the team has formulated the School Development Plan 2003âÂÂ2006. The major concerns are:
True to its plan, HPCCSS has sustained rapid growth and improvement in recent years, including: encouraging and employing the use of IT technology, the construction of a New Wing (pictured), which includes classrooms and a new library, and the promotion of a wide variety of new activities, including dancing and drama. It was noted for its excellent athletic achievements, such as in the Boys Inter-school Athletics Championships where it was awarded the fourth position in 2004âÂÂ2005.
The New Wing was completed and handed over to the school in August 2005, with a new library set up, using new equipment. There are thirty classrooms, two supportive education rooms, four laboratories, two computer rooms, a geography room, a music room, a needlework room, a home economics room, an art room, a multi-media learning center, a language room, a library, a student activity center, a STEM room, and a multi-purpose room. All the rooms are air-conditioned and furnished with computer nodes for accessing the Internet.
Plants have been allocated throughout the school in an effort "to beautify the learning environment." Activities are organized for students to take care of these plants and take part in 'green'-ifying the school. Announcements are often made to remind students about protecting the school environment.
There are altogether forty clubs available, despite the lack of activities during the COVID pandemic. Students are encouraged to join extracurricular activities and, in the meantime, work hard to achieve top academic results. The Students' Union also organizes activities for students, ranging from selling affordable stationeries to chess competitions.
