Are you sure?  I thought both schools are private independent schools and a minimum of 70% of students are required to be HKID holders.  But the school is free to accept other students for the rest of the places.

CKY一開始就定位為bilingual學校，不會，也不能收外藉學生(一方面是政府規定，另一方 ...

Thanks for your comments!
Pardon my ignorance, given CKY and TSL(陳守仁）are both PLK （保良局）private schools。why is it the case the TSL can accept up to 20-30% kids with are not native Chinese while CKY can't? Do they operate under different rules? Thanks so much for sharing!

Spot on. IS do not have the 70% limitation. However, if you look at the student mix of some of the IS, they probably have more than 70% local and mainland students, eg YCIS or KCIS.

I think this strict sense of IS is not very useful. All non DSE schools should be discussed here.

Get your facts right, TSL is a DSS and HKTHK said HKID holders not native Chinese. Many South Asian students have HKID.

HKTHK 我認同你。cky是私立校 可收30%  非本土生。他也有幾個外國人照片在校刊上。既然全部都是廣東話mother tounge,點可以支持到好像國際學校的語言環境，加上小一學生是用廣東話授課。怎能把cky和IS相比較？

學校比左6年學費減免，阿仔讀得好開心。

ISF 係有窮人既，5係你地想像之中咁藍血。

仲有，你地講果的 ~ 6球， 其實得好小人買左，可以交建校費代替。


阿仔班同學英、普都非常好！小學部更好，因為高班好多都係插班生。

我好感謝學校！

I think the switch from Cantonese in P1 to Mandarin in P2 is the reason why there aren't more native English speakers at CKY.  For non-native Cantonese speakers, I really don't see how it is possible to transition from one dialect to another as the instruction language in such a short time.

***既然全部都是廣東話mother tounge,點可以支持到好像國際學校的語言環境，***

這正是CKY的特點，學生雖然未必個個如Eng. native speaker講得夠地道，但與西人溝通絕無問題，且不少同學不單在學校講英文，在校外也有不少會自然地講英文，有些在一二年級不會在校外講英文，但到三四年級就連到同學家玩也講英文(而家長就明明不會跟小朋友講英文)。

至於為甚麼沒有非廣東話為母語的學生，可能學校在收生時對學生的中文能力要求高。

Totally agree

Many students started to learn PTH at their first year in CKY, so it's not matter of switching, it's a matter of how fluent they talked pth.

不用緊張，我無說cky不好，我只是說cky不能和在IS範疇內作比較。學你所說有廣東話授課，這他有他的特色。 IS用英語和pth因為這是國際語言。至於話有同學英語講得好，我可以分享一下。我有兩朋友他們的家庭是native eng. 仔女從小到大都講英文。入左cky便成為所謂曰常都說英文的一群。上年開放日上台講英語的小朋友我每星期六都會見到他，他爸爸是外國人。我不會看幾個例子就認定什麼，我也在放學時間進入cky, 在操場一組一組三五成群的九成九都係在講廣東話。唯一一個說英文的是一個小女孩對菲律賓工入說話。我或大家從來前也大部份係英文中學，上課書本全是英文，又如何？

Not sure where I remembered this from but someone once told me that P1 Chinese instruction was in Cantonese?

Yes, 1st year Chinese taught in Cantonese, but they have PTH lesson.

想問吓你個小朋友讀邊間幼稚園？通常ISF喜歡收邊間幼稚園嘅学生呢？
