The Direct Subsidy Scheme (DSS) is instituted by the Education Bureau of Hong Kong as a means to enhance the quality of private schools in Hong Kong at the kindergarten, primary, and secondary levels. The Hong Kong government encourages non-government secondary schools which have attained a sufficiently high educational standard to join the DSS by providing subsidies in order to enhance the quality of private school education since 2001/02 school year. Under the scheme, schools are free to decide on their curriculum, fees and entrance requirements. An existing DSS school is granted a subsidy based on its operating history; the subsidy is calculated according to the average unit cost for each local student enrolled.
