2. If an applicant can only provide a certificate issued by an English tutorial school showing one subject passed, does EAA consider the applicant to have the required educational qualification?

The Estate Agents Ordinance requires licensees to have completed an educational level of Form 5 of secondary education or its equivalent. EAA considers a Form 5 curriculum to include languages, mathematics and other subjects. EAA will not accept a certificate issued by English tutorial schools showing only one subject passed as proof of attainment of the required educational qualification.
