Do you really mean 九龍塘學校 or 九龍塘宣道?

D.Fish

weweroxy,
我所指的是九龍塘學校再要比$500留位費，而九龍塘宣道今日至考完，要到1月至有結果

I hope the above information will be useful for the comparison. English standard in APSKT is high, but the most challenging requirement is the learning of at least one musical instrument. Daily practices are required. It also costs you an extra sum of money on top of the school fees.

Nevertheless, I believe that there are good returns on kids' hard efforts. There are lots of funs in learning musical instruments. The benefits are lifelong. It also seems that learning music improves their abilities in learning academic subjects indirectly.

Pay attention to which middle school net each primary school is within.  Besides, as far as I can recall, the middle school allocation result of APS was slightly better than KTS.  Regarding the requirement of learning a musical instrument, that instrument must be group playing (so piano is disqualified).  The reason is the students have to participate in the music festival and to get prizes.

英文中學% reflects the chance of getting into an English secondary school, but the percentage is not a good indicator of English standard of primary schools.

Some information for considerations:

The banding allocation of each school will be changed  years later under the coming proposal in early 2005. The existing allocation ratio should not be relied on.

The best subject in SFA may be Math. SFA was usually one of the best three in the many Math competitions in the past years (La Salle was usually the champion.) In 2004, SFA gets the champion in HK Inter-school Math Elite competition.

Almost all APS students are good in music. They get most of the awards in the music competitions. (You have to pay more for music training). Some (not all) of Rhenish and SFA students are also outstanding in various ECAs.

APS, SFA and KTS students entering to the English secondary schools are usually not through the second round (by school net and lucky draw), but mostly successful in the first round (by seconary school discretion). School net is not much relevant to those top students.

Famous secondary schools like APS students because of their excellence in music and academics, while they like KTS, Rhenish and SFA mainly for their academics. But bear in mind that many good students from these schools have left for other famous schools (like DPS, DBSPS, La Salle, Maryknoll, , DGS, YMT Catholic, St. Mary) before graduation.

Dear youma,

Are you one of the primary school's parent? (APS, SFA, or KTS).

Your information is really very useful.

Thanks a lot.

我記得大囝囝02年考KTS, 被取錄者都唔需要比留位費, 只係寄番張留位回條就可以, 而03年就要交$150.-, 到今年就增加至$500.-, 唔通學校真係怕冇人讀.

Dear Youma,

Thank you.

Your information is very valuable.

Based upon the allocation results published in the websites of those schools, it seems that school net still had a great impact in last two years. The top 3 secondary schools for graduates of SFA, APSKT, KTS and KRS are listed as follows:

SFA 2003 result

長沙灣天主教英文中學 (24)
寶血會上智英文書院 (19)
拔萃男書院 (14)

KRS 2004

匯基書院(東九龍) (15)
英華書院 (7)
匯基書院 (6)

APSKT 2004

拔萃男書院 (22)
東華三院黃芴南中學 (21)
協恩中學 (16)

KTS 2004
東華三院黃笏南中學 (12)
何明華會督銀禧中學 (9)
華英中學 (9)

The figures in blankets are the number of students allocated to the secondary schools. The link to 2004 result of SFA is broken and so only 2003 result of SFA is listed above. SFA had around 160 graduates in 2003, APSKT and KTS had around 120 in 2004, and KRS had around 90.

Not all students from the above primary schools can enter the most famous secondary schools. Unless we have confident that our kids are top students, the school net is still one of the factors to be considered. The information provided in SFA website is very detailed. It includes the percentages of boys and girls. If school nets have to be considered, boys and girls may also be a factor influencing the decision of selecting the above primary schools.

But as informed that you can choose either home address and primary school address for your secondary school net so if we are living in very good school net, we can choose any primary school that we think the best and switch to the home address school net when choosing secondary school. Am I right?

Dear Bau,

You refer to "跨網派位". There is an application process and an address proof is required. There are banding adjustments for "跨網派位". EMB has the right to reject your application. You may have to ask parents with kids applying secondary schools for the details of "跨網派位".

From the figures, school net has an impact on the last two years' allocation results of the four primary schools. It seems that 跨網派位 cannot remove the effect of school net.
