Who is this site for?

HKDSE ICT Hub is a free, open-source companion that walks alongside the official Curriculum and Assessment Guide issued by the Curriculum Development Council and HKEAA. It is built for:

S4–S6 students who want a single source of truth covering every learning outcome that may appear in the exam.
ICT teachers who need ready-made teaching plans, SBA scaffolding and trustworthy reference material in three languages.
Self-study candidates preparing for the public exam without a school cohort behind them.

Practice SQL the easy way

You will need to write a lot of SQL for Paper 2A and your SBA. Instead of installing MySQL locally, you can practice queries on the SQL Books online editor — every account ships with its own sandbox database so you can test SELECT, JOIN, sub-queries and more without breaking anything.

How to use this site

Start with the Compulsory Part to revise Paper 1 concepts.
Pick your two electives and follow the dedicated chapters.
Bookmark the SBA guide while you build your Task 1 system.
Run mock exams using past papers from the Resources page.
Use the language switcher (top-right) any time you want to flip between English, 繁體中文 and 简体中文.
