國際學校通常是一間較free的學校，少功課，no exam。local school 就較谷，尤其一些出名的直資學校such as 拔萃，那麼國際學校學生在學術知識上，會否比local school差？

國際學校通常是一間較free的學校，少功課，no exam。local school 就較谷，尤其一些出名的直資學校such as ...
我拋磚引玉，表達個人的看法。
G-girl的問題，都是大部份以本地 傳統學校作標準的家長看法。其實外國學校的教育理念與亞洲地區有很大的不同，他們著重個人的價值，故此由幼兒開始已著重找出每一個孩子的個別能力，不管是孩子已顯露的還是隱潛的能力。學校主動製造機會給每一個學生去發揮能力，所以自小孩子已被訓練多讀多寫，不要害怕犯錯，不用害怕權威，小孩子會錯，但老師和其他成年人也會錯，大家就在討論中互相學習，找出正確的方法。具體執行是大家要在輕鬆的環境下快樂地學習。
"學校較自由，少功課"
是，特別是幼兒班 至小學，因為學習不是在表現功課的多少和深淺來反影，這段時間 (孩子 12 歲前) 應是各自去吸收不同的知識，找出孩子的興趣和能力，所以功課都在上課時與老師和同學一起以 小組 project 形式 或個人獨立完成，放學後只有少量甚至沒有功課，讓孩子愉快地學習。引伸是這段時間孩子會被引導多看書，多發問，多出外見識，多和其他同學交流意見。活動教學便是在這基礎上的其中一種教學形式。上堂時看電影便是其中一種學習和引導討論的方式。既然在學校是看電影作學習，回家看電視也可以是一種學習。同樣，在學校看圖書後與同學討論是一種學習過程，回到家中看其他圖書也是一種功課的延伸。功課不一定是在書台上的。
" no exam "
國際學校對學生的評分不單一在考試和測驗，他們更著重孩子平日的表現。所以他們的計分方法很著重孩子在學校的堂上功課和活動參與。
其實，國際學校學生的壓力會由 Grade 9 之後才開始，到時的壓力會與傳統學校差不多，有比較多功課和 小組project，老師也會將學生細分小組，因能力而施教。舉例來說，同班的同學上數學時，部份上正常的代數，但一部份較有能力的學生已在學習函數。同樣的，在學習語文課時，大部份可能上中文班，但某幾位同學已在學習另外一門語言，因為他們的中文能力已達到或超班了。
到了 第十二班，大家會有很多功課和壓力，因為與傳統學校一樣，要準備入大學了; 三月一小測，功課可能會深入過老師教導的，因為學校認為大家已開始獨立了， 應該自我學習甚至自我向難度和深度挑戰，要為進入成人的社會作準備了。當然假若功課上有不明白的，可以找老師查問，老師和學校會提供協助，不是屬於你那一班的老師也會幫你解決問題，因為高年班的師生已由傳統的師生邁向朋友關係，在社會上朋友不是互相幫忙嗎？ 當然也有部份同學欠缺動力，可能是個人能力原因或是興趣緣因，但這些都是正常的，反正人生的比賽不是在進入大學來體現，到大家退休時才結算吧。
" 一間較free的學校，少功課，no exam " ，這才是我們孩子應該擁有的童年學校回憶，也是我們這些過來人家長曾經希望的。
可以這樣說，傳統的本地教育制度把學生變成同一模式，老師們也給壓成同一模式。但在國際學校，孩子還是快樂地百花齊放的。
請參考七月八日的明報報導，一個在讀高年班國際學校學生把功課寫成劇本，老師不單鼓勵，更協助學生在美國找到了贊助，會把劇本拍成電影，這就是發揮學生潛力的一個例子。昨天本地傳媒提及的兩個9歲外籍女童在大浪灣執拾垃圾的故事也是把孩子的內在價值觀顯現出來的另一個例子。

學術知識 can have many definitions. Do you want breadth or depth? Are you referring to the elites or the average?
At the end of the day, it is not really relevant since your child is an individual and not the average.

其實學校本身就不能比較，本地學校己很多款，而國際學校也有很多款，只有電器之類的產品才可以列表形式比較。每間學校也有優點和缺點，我們的小孩也有優點和缺點，作為父母，只是作導引的角色及發揮和啓發她發掘自己的長處。

Free, no exam, no homework, have nothing to do with 快忘記
My personal experience from having attended a traditional primary school in Hongkong. When I was at that age my granddad used to spend time with me in the evenings just chit-chatting freely about anything and everything. We had a small balcony where granddad kept some plants, one night a huge white flower suddenly sprouted up from nowhere, and my granddad told me that the flower was special, and it would wilt in a few hours as described in the saying "曇花一現", and sure enough by next morning it was all shriveled up. Another time we talked about growing potatoes, and we went to fetch a potato from the fridge and soaked it in water to see if it would grow. These are just examples of little bits of knowledge I learned from my granddad which I still remember vividly, till this day almost half a century later.
Do I remember anything from the exams and homework I did in that traditional primary school? None, nothing, zilch, and I'm GLAD that I had forgotten them all, it was like watching a boring movie that lasted for 6 years and you were not allowed to leave the cinema.

While I see many benefits of IS's discovery approach to education, it is also not being honest to ourselves if we say academically they are the same at various stages.
I think the following is reasonable conjecture. At least in the primary years, the intense drilling in all subjects local school gives local students more knowledge. This usually means better Chinese in all aspects, more mathematics.
The PISA tests showed 15 year old HK students are among the best in reading comprehension, mathematics and science. But also the least willing to read for pleasure. Some food for thought.
Then in the senior secondary stage and University, I don't think there is a difference academically. But the international students are typically good at solving problems.

For those who truly believe they benefited from a traditional Hongkong / Chinese early education, try to remember something, anything, they learned from the homework and exams they did, try to recall even a single question that appeared in an exam paper, most would find that an almost impossible task.

Mighty> so where did you go after the 6 boring years? I bet wasnt 'local' anymore (^-^)!
I had the luck to go abroad after that.
Thanks to my granddad's "unorthodox teaching" I manage to retain much of my Chinese, especially the proverbs (成語), like one time he taught me "曹沖秤象", we actually made a little paper boat and tried it out 
I believe it is not how much knowledge one can cram in at the time, but how much of it is retained for life that matters, although cramming does make a child appear to be more "clever" at the time.

We have seen numerous cases of top LS students switching to IS but not the other way round (to my knowledge...) What does this mean?

Another complication is, how does one measure success?
Some years ago I was acquainted with an organizer of a certain "social club", the kind which single people would join and meet regularly over various social functions, and I was invited to a few of their events and got to know many of the members. They came from many different professions, but there was one that stood out like a sore thumb, there were more people from this one particular profession than any other, and guess what it was, the medical profession. These people were not the hum-drum general practitioners you find in little clinics down in the shabby local mall either, many of them were consultants and specialists who worked in big hospitals. Academically they were tip-top, having been through decades of drilling from local primary school onwards, financially they were rolling in money, but socially they were about the most bland and boring people you would ever meet, because they knew very little else besides medicine, and the most juicy story you might hear from them is how they cut people open. Little wonder they joined the club, right?

IS 都會注重學術成績, 只不過, IS 係小學時重點希望小朋友可以主動學習, 及鼓勵多睇書, 不抗拒文字, 所以如果與同年齡Local school 小朋友, 純學術知識有機會比IS 小朋友好. 但學習動機如主動睇書(不是教科書或公仔書), 可能IS小朋友會好啲.

依D IS v LC 問題就算講多20年都唔會有結論. 公說公有理 婆說婆有理. 首先最緊要知道自己想要D嘜先, 愉快學習? 想學校教你孩子越多野越好? 學好中文? 學好D英文? .........? 跟住就係要多D了解 IS 及 IS .嘅主要分別, 長處與短處. 因應自己的要求而作出選擇. 最後選 IS 又好, LS 又好, 記住 IS 學校都不是間間一樣, LS亦然. 總之一定要多D了解. 情形就好似你問 "貌美如花" 嘅女仔好, 定 "賢良淑德" 嘅女仔好? 咁我梗係首先要問你, 你要嚟做老婆或拍散拖先? 做老婆咪揀個 "賢良淑德" 囉. 但係 "賢良淑德" 嘅女仔都不是全部一樣, 有D好動, 有D好靜. 唔通你事旦出街揾個"賢良淑德" 就算?

是的，身边很多这样的实例，中、英、数全科补补补.......我开始以为大家只需要补习中文一科就够了，没想到是全方位的。
看着、听着、体会着身边的故事，感到很无奈，有幸自己一直坚持，但这条路不容易走呀.....曾经也受到某程度的影响，有一段时间过分“参与”，搞到关系紧张，不单自己有压力，也令到孩子吃不消。试了大半年后，决定“放弃”，结果出乎意料：一切重回轨迹。
不是对孩子没要求，我告诉她，假若全班20人，在没有补习和任何辅助的情况下，只要保持在10名或以内便好....我不会再叨唠，她也可拥有自己的自由和爱好。
每个孩子的天赋不一样，我的孩子不算笨，但也不是聪颖的那种（非资优生），可她跟从了我们一条明确的学习方法：课堂上专心听讲，这已经保证了中游。而当孩子自己再努力一点儿的话，中上成绩就一定是有的。

我小朋友K2開始轉了去間國際學校，我睇返佢今年year1學期尾派返屋企啲worksheets,如果以k3來講，我唔覺得學校所教的很淺，英文可以自己聽完故事後用短句答問題，當然有些字佢自己拼出來不對，但文法算ok;數學已教到成數；中文需然是簡體，但佢被編到用小二課本還要每星期要默十個字的小組，而science 同social science所學其實部份同其他科目有關係。
國際學校一個topic可以用一兩個星期去教，而且不同的科目會教啲同這個topic有關的東西，他們要小朋友從小就學識從不同的角度去看一件事，我認為這才是通識的精神。
本地學校就完全唔同，要小朋友所學的東西很多，不過各科就無物關係，而且還要操練教署啲評估考試，大家會以分數來決定一齊，這情況在大部份亞洲國家都一樣。
兩種學校教育的概念同手法不同，所以很難作比較，最後都要看父母想要小朋友學到什麼

其實是父母心態問題。用本地學校的家長心態來讓孩子讀國際學校，才會要孩子補習和多學些父母想孩子學的東西，所以出現了讀兩同間幼稚園的現象！ 其實要孩子去補習社即是要孩子上完國際學校的課再上另一所學校(補習學校)，殊途同歸，都是要孩子上兩所學校。國際學校的基本教學理念被這些父母變成與本地學校一樣了。

Just my opinion.
Teaching you to 'memorize' to make it look like you have learned more is different than teaching you to 'think'.
Teaching you to memorize is like turning you into a computer. You have a lot of data but you can't start processing anything until someone gives you a command.
Personally I prefer my kid to be proactive and think and problem solve (even if it means not having as much data in the hard-disk i.e. the brain).

The idea that we need to memorize a lot of things is OUT! We can always goolge and find it. The important thing now is to have critical thinking, creativity and analytical thinking which I am sure IS graduates will be able to learn more about haha!

I think some memorization work is still needed. Some things like Chinese words, stroke order, multiplication table, …. do need to be memorized. Memorization textbook is another thing!
