Secondary One places allocation results to be released tomorrow
The Education Bureau (EDB) today (July 7) reminded parents that the results for Secondary School Places Allocation (SSPA) 2025 (including results at the discretionary places (DP) and central allocation (CA) stages) will be announced tomorrow (July 8).
SSPA allocation results
————————————
A total of 48011 students participated in the SSPA System for this allocation cycle. Based on the total number of students allocated DP and the first three choices through CA, the overall satisfaction rate is 95 per cent. According to the number of students allocated DP and the first choice through CA, the satisfaction rate is 85 per cent.
The respective satisfaction rates for DP and CA are:
* Among the students allocated DP, 68 per cent were allocated the first choice; and
* For students allocated through CA (including Part A for Unrestricted School Choices and Part B for Restricted School Choices), 91 per cent of students were allocated the first three choices and 74 per cent were allocated the first choice.
The EDB hopes that parents and students accept the allocation results with a positive attitude. The learning effectiveness of students does not hinge merely on the schools to which they are allocated but rather on whether students have a proactive mindset in learning. It is important for parents to continue to support and encourage their children, and avoid burdening them with their own expectations.
Announcement of allocation results
——————————————————
All Primary Six students participating in this year's SSPA System should return to their school tomorrow to collect the Allocation Slip and Admission Slip. Parents can obtain the allocation results by the following means:
Please refer to the series of related videos and the Parent's Guide on the bureau's homepage (www.edb.gov.hk/en/edu-system/primary-secondary/spa-systems/secondary-spa/general-info/sspa_eplatform_parents_guide.html) for details on creating and logging into an eSSPA account, as well as viewing the allocation results via the eSSPA.
Completion of registration procedure
———————————————————
All students must report to the allocated secondary schools this Thursday or Friday (July 10 or 11) for registration. In case neither the students nor their parents or guardians are able to return to the school and collect the Allocation Slip and Admission Slip in person, the parents or guardians should authorise a representative in writing in advance to collect the documents and complete the registration procedure on their behalf.
Should any parent or guardian have genuine difficulties in collecting the Admission Slip and registering with the allocated school personally or through an authorised representative, he or she should inform the schools concerned or the School Places Allocation Section of the EDB before the end of the registration period so that alternative arrangements for registration can be made. Failure to do so will be taken as giving up the place allocated.
Arrangements under inclement weather
————————————————————
In case of inclement weather or other special circumstances on the day for announcement of the allocation results or on the days for registration, all schools and parents should pay attention to announcements on radio or television for special arrangements for announcing the allocation results or registration.
Enquiries

For enquiries about the allocation results, students and parents may call the School Places Allocation Section of the EDB on 2832 7740 and 2832 7700 during office hours.
