I agree with you!

I voted with my feet, my girl had local dragon kindie and IS offer. We chose IS because my husband and I want to see her character development into more independent n confidence over academic.  So far very happy with her development. I think it is pointless to compare the 2 systems... It really comes down to what aligns to parenting values.

I really don't agree with this narrow view. I worked in many international firms and I think IS foreign students have advantage.

恭喜你選擇了這樣開心的學校給女兒，我也是期望我小朋友能考到心儀的lS，也極度嚮往冇功課的快樂親子時間，我極不喜歡LS，因為小時候也曾經在LS就讀，中學，小學也是Band1，但又如何，我不享受上學，後來在外國就讀高中及大學，便明白不同教育上的極大分別
講真，要考入lS真的不容易，大把人交完Form，連面試機會也冇呢！點入呀？仲要話將來冇人請添？我識好幾個本地大學的講師，教授，他們一定知道LS及lS學生的分別，根本不同層次喎！

有咩層次唔同呢？

Perspective 同exploration skills 唔同. Local school 太spoon feed, D學生應變能力差D

Not necessarily. It depends on individuals. Both my children study in IS and I was brought up in complete local system. I think I used to be far more independent and resilient than them. I think as parents get to be more sophisticated, we tend to intervene too much (myself too). As a result, the new generation gets less and less resilient. No matter it's IS or LS, the most important thing as parent should do is to let go.

Of course, school is only one element of child development. There are lots more aspects such as character, home values, etc... I think it just comes down to choosing a school that aligns - however, I do think generally speaking IS students tend to have better language and problem solving capabilities compare to LS.

I dare not generalise. Both LS and IS would excel. Some kids in IS can hv very gross behaviour too but some very disciplined.

Discipline 好唔好同讀IS LS 冇関係，名校學生都有偷竊同吸毒。E d係好睇本身家教

I welcome different views. I was also expressing my views as well and I would not easily jump to absolute conclusion like you. The purpose of this thread is to compare 2 systems, therefore I would tend to express my observations from different angles too.
I advice to the person who raised this question is that it is better to stay objective and don't focus too much on comparing the success or achievement of kids from the 2 systems.
Pls read carefully my message above, I was just quoting my observation on my children, I didn't try to generalise that's the case for everyone too.

Frankly speaking, I thought IS would be much better than LS when my kids were small. However i still hv doubts of whether that's true or not. So I tend not to jump to absolute conclusion. But one thing for sure, kids hv much better work life balance in IS. Again, I don't link that to academic success.
When choosing between IS vs LS, to certain extent, it really depends on your intuitive sense.

家族中從IS 畢業的有三位醫生、一位大律師、一位獸醫；LS畢業的有一位老師、三位會計師、一位高級公務員。

結論是：只要肯讀，IS or LS都可以啊

I think the reason why many parents are trying to compare IS vs LS is not because of the "outcome".

As your son is also in IS, I am sure you would agree that we do not only look for "outcome".
We also care about the "process".
IS and LS have very different ways of teaching and nurturing students.
The most obvious would be in primary school, when the teaching style are not even similar.
But even in secondary school or even at the level of IBDP, you will see that IS and LS are very different.
I am not going to say which is better: there is no such thing as "better", but different parents have different views of a "more suitable" style.
One thing parents need to bare in mind. If you choose IS, be prepared that your child might have a very different set of goals or priority compared to a typical local child.

The percentage of top score (scores with 43 or up) students going off to 非神科 is definitely much higher in a typical IS IB program than local IB program.

PS   For those who cares, please re-read what I said here. I have never said IS is better. In fact, I do not think IS or LS can be suitable for everyone. So ultimately, choose whatever YOU LIKE. And thus, no need to "remind" me how wonderful LS is.
