Australian International School

Any existing parents can share if the discipline and acamedic result are good at AISHK? Anyone can share the IB syllabus? Only start in year 11 and 12?
I would like to apply for my son next year and now I'm doing some research.
He is an Australian so will it be a little easier for him to get into AISHK?
Many thanks for your information in advance.

I'm thinking if i should enrol for son now to Reception or I should let him finish local kindergarten (English teaching medium)?
The reason i choose international school for him is because I am afraid he cannot adapt or he will feel unhappy about the intense competition under the HK education.  
Any parents who had the same dilemma before can share with me your experience? Thanks!

thank you anniewmau.
I will then apply for my son to the Reception class. Hope he can be offered a place as I will send him to Aussie as I studied and worked in Aussie before. many thanks!

As I know that some kids need to take 2nd interviews and some kids no interview is needed to get in. ...

Thanks for the information.
I start to feel a bit worried to hear that some kids got rejected. Do u know any reasons why those kids got rejected after the interview?
I plan to send my boy to the reception class but I have no idea about the selection criteria of AISHK.

Thank you Anniewmau.
Do you know the chance of getting in if the kid is invited to attend the interview?
