Fight Back to School 2 (Chinese: 逃學威龍2) is a 1992 Hong Kong action comedy film directed by Gordon Chan and co-written by Chan Kin-chung, and produced by Jimmy Heung. The film stars Stephen Chow, Ng Man-Tat and Cheung Man. It is a sequel to the 1991 film Fight Back to School.

As per the original Fight Back to School, this film is set in 2 schools in Hong Kong: Shatin College and Chinese International School.

Plot

Star Chow is an officer in the Royal Hong Kong Police's elite Special Duties Unit (SDU). During a meeting with his senior officer, Superintendent of Police, Madam Yip, Star jokingly suggests he wish to be reassigned to the traffic unit.

Star immediately finds himself demoted to Constable engaging in traffic duty on the streets of Hong Kong. After being made the scapegoat for a failed high school terrorist investigation, Star hastily resigns from the police.
