Ethnic minority children are amongst the most marginalised groups in Hong Kong, with one third in poverty, a higher Form 5 school drop out rate, a lower university admission rate, and a higher crime rate compared to their Chinese counterparts. Perhaps more distressing is that 57 percent of ethnic minorities with special education needs (SEN) drop out of school between primary and secondary levels. Those who are non-Chinese speaking (NCS) and have SEN are a minority group within a minority group, and have historically been ignored by the education system in Hong Kong.
