A spokesman for the Education Department said the teachers, on satisfactorily passing the final examination, would be awarded the
status of "Qualified Kindergarten Teacher".
They would be eligible for admission to the Department's Register
of Teacher if they have five years' approved teaching experience in
Hong Kong schools.

Sub-office, Kowloon Central Post Office Building, Nathan Road.
