Look it up on ESF website.

My advise is you would really need to know how to play the ESF and international school admission game before you choose this route.

1. Does your child have foreign passport ?
2. Does he ONLY speak in English (i.e. Cat I)? (Ability to speak in Chinese means he can join local schools as ESF is primarily for students who cannot benefit from local stream).
3. Are you willing to give $400,000 (four hundred thousand dollars nomination fee for a better chance of interview for DC & RC primary schools?
4. A significant no. of my friends who graduate from ESF Kindergartens cannot get admitted to ESF primary this year. Do you have plan B (that is if your child can only speak in English)?

If your answers to all the above questions are yes, then congratulations. Your chance of getting onto the through train schooling from ESF kindergarten is high!

1. Does your child have foreign passport ?

Although ESF do not mention anything about foreign passports on any of their official statements, it is widely believed that children with foreign citizenship do enjoy a slight preference. I would treat this as hear-say but if the child does have a foreign passport then make sure this fact is included on the application form.

Hehe, if you understood what I posted, you wouldn't be asking this question {:1_1:}

Enter the foreign citizenship in the application form and include photocopies of the foreign passport. As I said, this is only hear-say, there is no guarantee that doing this will increase the kid's chances, but it certainly won't reduce it.

In fact, a foreign passport does not really help. My daughter did not have a foreign passport but she went straight in. The only reason was she fit in one of their main criteria, i.e. we came back from overseas. I met at the interview a girl who had a foreign passport but was failed. She spoke good English but she spoke Chinese as well. But as Fattydaddy said at the end, it doesnt harm to show your foreign passport.

Holleo,Mighty, May ask you what is the content of the interview for PYP at ESF?
Thank you.

作者: Mighty 時間: 12-7-25 15:43

The interview had nothing to do with PYP. Although my information was a few years ago, I am sure the principle has not changed. The school just wants to see if you child understands English. During my child's interview, she was asked to draw and play with other kids. The teacher also talked to her in a very casual way. She was crying before going into the classroom so I was allowed to go in with her for a while. The atmosphere was very friendly and casual. I was quite surprised despite the short interview time, the teacher understood a lot about my child (as we had several email exchanges afterwards). The teachers are really child experts.

Can anyone tell me if ESF's application is based on first come first serve basis or on suitable age? Thanks!

I would suggest parents to go thru the admission policy and procedures directly.

Radiomama is right that everyone should go through the school webiste before applying. But one thing is for sure...that it is not on a first come first serve basis nor based on the child's age.

Thank you so much Mighty!
i went through their website and got an idea that we shd apply at suitable age. Just worried if sometimes even they've stated that way might not be exactly what it is. Thanks again!

This is very true that graduating from esf kinder doesn't guaranteed a placement to esf p school. So if that is the case then what should we do? Bcuz esf kinder only offers up to k2.

You make sure you apply to other IS like cAIS as a back-up

作者: rubyfall2011 時間: 12-8-25 11:00

Regarding the ESF admission policy category 1, does the "Chinese" inlude Madarine? or just Cantanese? Thanks.

作者: sschiu 時間: 12-8-27 22:29 標題: 回覆：rubyfall2011 的帖子

Obviously, both Cantonese and Mandarin are Chinese.

But I heard someone saying that the school is for those can't speak Cantonese and can't adopt the local school, so those mandarin speaking student are classified as cat 1. Please can someone clarify.

其実在這裏問都是HERE　SAY,　THERE　SAY的答案、何不愠個普通話人、打去学校、　仮切是投資移民、説小朋友剛来、只懂説普通話、直接問這個CASE是CAT　１定 CAT２、最直接了当LA.

作者: md23 時間: 12-8-28 09:59

Read the policy, speaking Cantonese is Cat 2, speaking only Mandarin is Cat 1.

普通話人都係CAT.2呀!  除非係ABC/CBC嗰 D, 即係吾識睇寫中英文!

我屋企就近有間ESF, 我近呢十年都未聽過有學生/家長講普通話架!  就算個家長講廣東話, BILINGUAL, 小朋友都係講英文架!  近來就多咗韓國人, 小朋友都係英文台!

其實大家仔細理解英基個要求, 你都會好清楚學校要收邊類人仕!  間間 IS 都會提醒家長, 家庭需要提供良好英語環境以幫助小朋友就讀 IS 需要!  ESF仲寫明Y1-6嘅英語要求, 以供大家參考!

我見最多大6, 都係耀中!

第一類別 (CAT.1)

以英語作為母語或第二語言的學童，且不會說廣東話及／或讀寫中文。

第二類別 (CAT.2)

可以進入本地學制，但同時符合英基入學要求的學童。

在每個類別中，以下學童有優先機會接受面試：
現正就讀英基教育服務有限公司幼稚園（只限第1班學生）；*
曾居留海外現再度回港的英基舊生；
父親或母親現時是英基的全職僱員；
英基舊生的子女。
