I think ESF is facing the reality that English standard has dropped rapidly for past few years, wich severly affects teaching and academic level. I know many talented students left to study in UK. To be more competitive, ESF has made correct decision.
My experience in ESF for the past few years is that many parents' English are so poor that they actually ask to speak Cantonese to communicate with teachers and school staff when they participate in school meeting and activity days.
When school teachers ask parents to give talks to students, I remember I was the only one across the whole year to give talk to students !
I think ESF has strong ground to adopt new policy that teaching is more effective and realistic with parents' participation.
