KTS有英數，英文就小一用小二的書。
APS要識樂器,鋼琴就不計在內,成績表音樂要計分。

其實如果你的小朋友不喜歡音樂而你認同音樂是可受用一生,宣小是一個不錯的選擇.

試想如果將音樂等同中英數一定要計分又不能不學,小朋友是會在學習過程中和同輩影響下產生興想趣,不論他之前dislikes music very much.

以宣小學生年年在校際音樂節取得接近過千優良證書亦證明音樂興趣是可以培養.至於學一些泠門樂器如大喇巴低音大提琴巴松管對入名中如DGS/DBS/La Salle是甚有幫助,因學界是甚小人識這些樂器.

至於鋼琴不計,因樂團是沒有piano.

我識得一個宣小生,他之前對音樂也沒有interest,但到P.5已取得violin Grade8 distinction,跟著入了男拔,到F.4去了英國,還靠他violin的戌績取得3,000磅獎學金,令他的父母歡躍不己!

以一間私校說,music is a good strategy for survival and to enter 名校.

我用學校今年的音樂節通告數過，應該是300張良好證書、179張優良證書和129個冠、亞、季軍獎項。



大拔去年也祇得102個冠、亞、季軍獎項 - 宣小音樂真厲害！

youma,

I disagree with your point and you are too subjective.

If you see the winners of school music fest this year, the 1st three winners of APS students in music fest are listed as follows:
Piano : 43 students
violin/viola  : 21
Cello/Double Bass : 4
Oboe/Clarinet/Flute : 17
Horn/Trumpet/Saxphone/Trombone:10
Wind Ensemble : 14
Chinese instrument: 6
Others : 14

If you see the above winners list,  APS students win nearly in every kind of instrument except for tuba, euphuim and bassoon in school fest.

How can the super famous school absorb so many APS students. APS, by far, bases its foundation on academics but not for music. Further, I trust that only very small portion of parents would spend several thousand on music. The super famous school would not admit the poor academic students to undermine their reputation!

.6.        但一些超級英中(such as DBS, Heep Yun?)門外, 有大把成績最卓越的學生任它選擇, 卻偏就是年年要了一些第二三組別,玩冷門樂器的學生,而這樂器又是英中所缺的，若不是[純]靠音樂實力那是靠什麼?宣小家長很多每月花上數千元學音樂, 總是有原因的,

youma,

It appears that you misinterupt my main point and don't attend to the crux of the question. Would you elaborate your point 2 & 4 by giving evidence?
How do you know that the admitted students were not highly ranked in APS?
