Scope and Content

The records in this series relate mainly to the organization and work of the Panels established by UMELCO, OMELCO and OMLEGCO (Office of Members of the Legislative Council) and subsequently by the Legislative Council relating to education. They also include some records relating to manpower from 1983 to 1985 when that policy area was monitored by the Panel on Education and Manpower (see item (1) in Note).
The series documents the regular and special meetings of the Panels, and joint meetings held with other Panels and meetings of subcommittees.
Among the subjects covered by the records are: student travel, civic education, language bridge programmes, private tutorial schools, target related assessment, student suicide, training facilities for autistic children, secondary school places allocation system, information technology (IT) in education, mother tongue teaching, Chinese immigrant children and administration of University Grants Committee-funded institutions.

Physical Description
|
Records in this series are files in both hard and soft cover manila folders. Enclosures are attached using Treasury tags.
Records for the period between 1981 and 1994 were originally held in lever-arch files. The contents are hole-punched in the top left hand corner suggesting that they were originally maintained in manila folders using Treasury tags and were subsequently transferred to lever-arch files. For records preservation, the Archives has replaced the lever-arch files with hard cover manila folders.
