Re: Is Hong Lok Yuen int school good ?
Dear CAAmun,
Sorry for any hard feelings caused to you as I really just wanna express what I know to other moms. I have no means to say that HLYIS is no good, as you said, it will be unfair to the school. However, as a mother who are carefully planning the path for my kid, I really put most of my time and efforts to "look for" school that is "good" (but i won't really know unless my girl is in, so what i depend on is the "words of mouth" from existing parents). I have limited choice since I live in NT and HLYIS/JIS in Tai Po area will be the nearest schools for us.
My aunt is also a "carefully planning" mother, she doesn't wholly satisfied with HLYIS. Due to your question, I ask her and she said, the teachers are good, school environment and facilities are good, location is good (live in same area) but just the "syllabus" is kind of "easy". She had regular meetings with other moms and this is what the same comment of all. Some of the parents transferred their kids to other IS and my aunt didn't do so because: 1) she keeps on self-teaching her girl to keep up the highest standard 2) target school (SJS) has no vacancy 3) don't want to travel few hours to other school in other area; In regards of the %, she says no exact rate but just notice not many students accepted by ESF secondary schools, so compare to other IS without secondary school, such as JIS, the acceptance rate is lower so she believes the reason is strictly about academic result.
Should you kids are smart enough and you are confidence of them to pass the ESF entrance test after graduated from HLYIS, then may be no need to change school. By the way, you can ask the school for exact rate of acceptance to ESF secondary schools.
regards,
Ashleymama
