想問下如果中三轉到去esf 12班會不會好難catch up?
ESF said due to the year group problem she could only go to Y12 since they wont admit students in Y11 because of igcse

WYmom  Then you can choose RC or DC which don't have igcse.  發表於 13-4-9 09:03

sis used to be quite balanced on both eng and chinese (pth).  i heard that started this year, they have uplifted the chinese curriculum from p2 / 3, using the similar as the elite LS, but just in simplified chinese. maybe parents can consider this one.

Then what happens to English?  I have heard more than one cases where SIS students fail English tests when they want to promote to other IS.  They are typical good students otherwise they would not consider moving, right?

This is what I heard from a parent who has children in SIS.

I heard from my friend that her daughter's classmates' English is really bad (many Chinese words such as la, lo.ah mixed  in English speaking) in SJS.  SJS needs to find the balance between English and Chinese. It seems to be good if school improves Chinese level, but English level is not easy to keep ! Many students in SJS are not used to 3 languages--Mandarin, English and Cantonese if they are not strong in languages.
My kids needed tuition for Mandatin, English and Cantonese when they were in SJS.
My opinion is that you can not avoid Mandarin, you have to use English to learn and you can not loose Cantonese as your identity !

shadeslayer  Yes, Chinese is very difficult to maintain at a high standard (so is English).  If the only criteria is Chinese, children are much better off study in mainland or Taiwan.  發表於 13-4-10 22:55
HKTHK  English level may be difficult to keep but I would have thought Chinese is even harder?  發表於 13-4-10 14:41
WYmom  I think you are talking about SIS, not SJS, right?  發表於 13-4-10 14:29

oh, i think some mis undrstanding here. we are talking about SIS, not SJS.

To me, all non-hk based-IS has similar standard of eng. that why i didnt elaborate their eng. all kid in SIS speak eng and pth only in school and their IGCSE score very gd. i think every school got individual exception , ie some got full mark some got zero mark. if zoom in to 1 or 2 cases, there will be no gd school in the world..i think.  As i know, Sis students can be changed to other IS quite easily. there are quite some change to CIS or GSIS. i have visit their primary secondary session and talk to many gengeral pupils, they are very polite, logial and out spoken even on pure hongkonger. they got 4k application in last 2yrs, but for 100seat only. this is all i know.

Yes, my examples are just a few instances but they are true cases nevertheless.

How do you define non HK based IS? By number of local students? SIS has low percentage of Chinese students?

I do agree that SIS is a great school! My d used to go there and all the people she knows from SIS are all really nice and bilingual! And I personally know kids from SIS that managed to go to STC, GSIS, CIS and HKIS as well
I don't think they have any problem transferring to other IS

I haven't been to RC, I am not sure. I suggest not just go to their open day but find some chance to go to their usual school day. You can see their real face after class, during recess or afterschool. You can hear how and what they chat with peers. On school open school, you can see their trained performance by students selected by school... of course every of them are star ... good english by native kids and fluent PTH by taiwai/ mainlander. I usually go to see by myself before comment on each school,

And usually these schools do not have language policy inside the school. those non hk based IS will have policy ( written or non written ) reeust studnets to speak either english or PTH in school.
