The Grant Schools Council, representing twenty-two mission and denominational grant schools, was Hong Kong's first schools council founded across denominations to channel concerns and opinion to the government. This book examines the development, struggles, and achievements of the council and the member schools from their colonial beginnings to the postcolonial years of reform.
