History

In 1970, the Education Department founded Kwun Tong Government Secondary Technical School. Because of the changes in Hong Kong's education policy, the school name was changed from Traditional Technical schools to the same as Traditional Grammar schools, Kwun Tong Kung Lok Government Secondary School (Kung Lok refers to Kung Lok Road).

In 1990, the school began setting up the student union.

In 1993, Kwun Tong Government Secondary Technical School Alumni Association was set up.

On September 1999, the alumni association’s name changed to Kwun Tong Kung Lok Government Secondary School Alumni Association.

The school's basketball team has had an outstanding performance, up from D1 level to D3 level in just four short years.

The school implements The Hong Kong Award for Young People.

In 2000, the alumni association designed the poster for the new wing and donated a banyan to commemorate the 30th anniversary.

In mid-April 2010, the school made headlines across Hong Kong newspapers due to bullying problems and alleged inaction by teachers.
