Includes the revised syllabi of the elective subjects available for study at Northcote College of Education for the full-time two-year and three-year courses.

When both courses were introduced in September 1980, each student was required to elect for study three subjects which he/she intended to teach after graduation from the courses. With effect from September 1984, the syllabi were recast into units of study and students would only be required to study two elective subjects. It was hoped that the reduction in elective studies would pave the way for more flexibility and further improvement of the course curriculum.

Includes meeting particulars, reports and memoranda, on the planning, implementation and review of courses on the use of Chinese for secondary school teachers for teaching specific subjects. The courses were developed jointly by the Advisory Inspectorate of the Education Department, the Colleges of Education, the Hong Kong Technical Teachers' College, and the Institute of Language in Education.

Includes draft syllabi of the college units offered by the Music Department at Northcote College of Education for the full-time two-year and three-year courses; and first draft of the units developed jointly by the Science Departments of the Colleges of Education for the full-time two-year and three-year courses.

The common units were available for study at all four Colleges, whereas the college units were offered specifically to students enrolled at a particular College.
