My daughter got offer too. She's gonna be my second child to study in Harrow.

You will have like 4 hours of Chinese session per week in year 1. There's 2 SCA and 2 CCA sessions you may customize in a way to boost their Chinese language if you really want to stress on that. Life is always a trade-off, you get more on one thing you sacrifice the others.

4 hrs學甚麼的？要寫？還是只認字？

其實我無跟貼佢中文學成點, 只知有課文, 要寫字, 填充題, 教材並不特別淺, 因為 nature 同 non-nature 會分開上課... 咁當然學校一定唔會谷~~

Is it easier for 2nd child to get into Harrow? How likely the sibling can get an offer too? I heard ...

Yes, you got priority if you have siblings studying there, but you still have to pass their language assessment first.

Thanks for your reply.
Is the language assessment interview difficult to pass? What would be tested ...

Frankly I have no idea about K1 assessment as both my kids were enrolled at Y1. I believe it should be fine as long as they could understand simple instructions and recognize common words.
