My child is at KCIS P2, he is very interested in "Maths" and "Science". Heard that GSIS is strong at Maths and Science, did anyone know about it? If so, will consider apply GSIS. Thanks.

有冇攪錯? GSIS 強項是數理

通常考IGCSE 前, GRADE 10 考, IGCSE MATHS

GRADE 11 考C1,C2,S1 (ALEVEL  AS LEVEL MATHS ) 以前

SCIENCE 方面, 一般會較快其他學校國際學校1年左右

香港無學校會叫學生grade 11 考as level maths

但提一提你

入面小朋友

是谷出來

且成個氣氛, 學生不是想讀律師, 不是醫生 , 就是想去名牌大學

氣氛現實

我舉例, 佢地grade 7, 8, 9 時

開始教igcse 的知識

無乜書, 上堂抄野, notes,  做實驗

之後老師印igcse revision guide  給佢地

之後父母再谷, 再鬥排名, 各比併

如果小孩性格純真, 樸素

此學校絕對不適合

因為對手太強, 且現實

性格純真, 簡單的小孩很易不開心

這裡是專業人士的縮影 ,困獸鬥

我狂谷, 都要第2次才考到

Hi, HIHinsurance

Thanks a lot for your information. Would definitely re-consider about it.

這的確是一間學術上很催谷的IS, 認識一位朋友仔在Grade 9-11不停考公開試，然後在Grade 12完成AS level, 並終如願被拔尖入了醫學院。

做物讲到甘鬼得人惊? 可怕是因为力不从心, 还是要sure win.

如果是好料子, 一样可以成绩好而愉快,
如过未算好料子, 只要唔好大想头, 成绩已是不坏
如果读得太吃力, 可以转校, 外面还是好风光.
最难走的是一路读, 一边骂, 无论成绩何如, 总觉得不甘!

每间IS 也有 Science & Maths genius , 如果喜欢science & Maths, 去那里的分别不大. 喜爱的可以上网学不少advance courses.

I think a very good backgorund and connection plus a very outstanding performance at the admission interview is required. The Mandarin is SImplified version. Many students have regular private tuition.
And yes, it is very good academically.

my son is a GSIS student since year 3 till now (year 9), he is very 性格純真, 樸素, but he loves and enjoys the school wor.
Comparing to local schools, GSIS is still much more relaxed.
My son is particularly interested and good at Math and Science, this was one of the reasons why I thought GSIS suits him.
However, to math talented kids (my son and a few boys in his class), they still feel Math lessons as too easy and boring. Most of them would take self-pacing/advanced online math courses e.g. EPGY, CTY.
I think GSIS is a rather 'academic focused' school amongst int'l schools, in fact their other subjects such as English, ICT, Geography, etc) are also very demanding as there are tests since Year 7 and many projects and book reports required.
But it's very different from local schools that, parents are not required/expected to help or involve in their homework or projects at all. I never check my son's homework, push him to do test revisions etc, and he is still doing fine and happy.
True that some parents put their kids in tutorials after school as these parents are aiming at top schools and universities overseas for their kids.
Agree with annie40, it's a matter of whether the school matches with the kid's personality and parent's expectation, either you like the school and try your best to accommodate, or just leave it if its not suitable for your kid.
