SMC has a very unique interview and offer timetable and therefore many parents are asked to respond to the offer in a very short timeframe.
I hope this sharing will help those parents understand more about the school and therefore find a suitable school for your child.
School hours:
8:15a.m. – 2:40p.m. (Mon – Thu)
8:15a.m. – 3:20p.m. (Fri)
This is a through train school. So students will spend 12 years in this school
SMC does not participate in the secondary school place allocation system, so you can only ‘knock the door’ if you want your child to study in other secondary schools
Class structure:
- 2 classes (around 66 students) on each form in Primary School
- P.1 – P.2 divided into 3 groups
- So a student may be in English Group 1, Chinese Group 3 and Maths Group 2.
P.3-P.4
Chinese, Eng, Math and General Studies – 2 classes into 3 groups.
P.5-P.6 - Chinese, Eng, Math, Integrated Science and Liberal Studies – 2 classes into 3 groups.
Grouping will be reassigned after first exam depends on exam results
Exams:
No exams for P.1
P.2 onwards – 2 exams, 1 test
Exam – 50%
Continuous assessment – 40% (e.g. projects, dictation, homework, quiz)
Test – 10%
Eng:
-School based learning materials – no text books
-All English teachers in primary section are native speakers (I don’t know if this is the case for secondary section)
-Phonics from P.1-P.4.
Phonetics from P.5-P.6
-Inter-class Eng Drama competition every year and everyone will perform
-P.4-P.6 students must take Cambridge exam to get a benchmark (not sure if the cost is borne by parents or school)
