History
From 2005, the School of Early Childhood Education was renamed the Faculty of Professional and Early Childhood Education (FPECE). This change followed the Hong Kong Institute of Education’s achievement of self-accrediting university status in 2004 and the implementation of a new academic structure in September 2005, which consolidated four existing Schools into two Faculties: the Faculty of Languages, Arts and Sciences, and the Faculty of Professional and Early Childhood Education.
The newly formed FPECE comprised one academic office and four academic departments, including
(1) Programme Office: Early Childhood and Special Education Programmes;
(2) Department of Curriculum and Instruction;
(3) Department of Early Childhood Education;
(4) Department of Educational Policy and Administration; and
(5) Department of Educational Psychology, Counselling and Learning Needs.
