Put it this way, if a school is incapable of preparing a rejection letter that is more subtle and po ...

I actually agree with you. Even an ordinary parent like me can think of other ways to express rejects with certain euphemism.

But the parents with the blunt reject letter couldn't care less about the school. It is the parents' ego that was hurt.

Obviously you could not care less about the school's behaviour as your child is not getting in. Your child could not care less about the reject as you either have not told him/her, or the child forgot about this in 10 minutes.

In the adult world, one has to get over many things that you have no control of.  Have companies ever tell job interviewers real reasons for a reject?  You will never heard from them, let alone a letter, or a reason.

What is wrong with standard templates?  You are saying this as though it is seriously wrong.
Obviously the school received a lot of applications.  Among those they cannot admit, there are different types, according to their selection criteria, like

- English is not strong enough
- Child is not proactive enough
- Cognitive development is not good enough
- Parents not Christian
- a combination of the above
(I made them all up)

If they use a number of templates for replying parents, is there anything wrong?  What does that have to do with integrity?

Just because they don't have enough places does not mean the real reason for your son's rejection was not English.   It was an interview, they don't owe you a detailed evaluation report of your child's development.

PS.  I have nothing to do with ICS and none of my friends and family's children study in ICS.
