In the introduction of new Senior Secondary Curriculum, Wa Ying College is one of the pioneer schools that offers Design and Applied Technology (DAT) as a technology-based elective, while most other schools offer the more common electives such as Finance and Information Technology related subjects at the initial stage [http://intranet.waying.edu.hk/waying/newspaper/TVB.htm]. And this brave take proved to be a huge success as in the first HKDSE exam cycle, the highest achieving DAT candidate was a student from Wa Ying College. However, due to the school's policy that no elective course should be offered with less than 10 students, no more DAT class were opened after the first HKDSE exam cycle, despite some capable students with potential in the subject showed great interest in reading the subject. Nevertheless, the school has reopened DAT class starting from 2019-2020 academic year.
