大部份學校的截期都是8月31日或之前出生的, 有截年尾的嗎? 例: 如5歲入讀YEAR 1, 開學時 (即八九月) 要足5歲, 一般要求最遲8月31日出生. 但ESF和ICA入讀YEAR 1可在入學那年的年尾出生, 即4歲8個幾月就可入讀Y1. 我上網查了很多間popular點的, 基本上都係截8月底.

sorry, I should have specified. Looking for secondary. NIS offers only primary. AIS' school year is too different from practically the rest of all schools in HK, so I won't be considering. CAIS teaches traditional Chinese, and I am looking for simplified. SIS...well -- a bit too traditional in its methodology for my taste.

Basically, the rest on the list all have Aug 31 cut off....唉!

Let me present my situation here. My kids are going to ICA and frankly, we all love it. Recently, through some medium, I was even able to verify its academics - which is more comparable to some popular (truly western...and I am not just talking about ESF here) IS than I thought. (Schools such as SIS are so academically intensive that I wouldn't even dare to make a comparison.)

ICA 今秋會開Y7, 學校一直有尋新校址抗建初中, 但暫時未能成功. 所以我不得不為孩子先尋後著. 小兒是十二月尾細仔, 基本上就是全級最小的那個. 我問了幾家學校, 因為他的年齡, 即使程度達標, 轉校後要重讀一年. 在他低年級時我覺得沒太大所謂, 但到他高小或初中重讀, 而他的程度絕對跟得上時, 他心裏很不願意.

英基當然是一個選擇, 但我們要入讀Island School，因面臨搬遷到大圍４年讓舊址重建的問題，所以老師和學生turnover不少，而且我們住港島，去大圍上學，又是臨時的，將來又搬回來，很多不穩定的因素，所以希望找別的選擇。

多問幾間學校，很多時8月31日的cutoff只是為初入學而設，高小初中插班時年齡要求未必那樣嚴格，通過入學試便可。

如果小朋友已讀開, 唔會因為四年relocate轉校好理解, 不竟有哂peer group. 但未落搭的家長唔會咁諗, 有睇過我以前的posts的媽媽都知, 我2個細路都係Glenealy讀過, 細個個仲差3個月就讀滿2年. 當時我有同其他Glenealy家長傾過下, 其實冇人想去大圍的, 有後路的都諗定, 去得大圍咁遠返學, 就唔洗一定諗Island School. 苦於而家因遷校舍, 好多本來係Island School的esf小學學生已千方百計申請South和West Island, 所以ESF小學內部升呢2間中學的申請已爆哂錶, 有ESF小學已呼籲家長可申請Island School, 因Island仲有位.

而我同其他家長一樣, 去得大圍返學, 不如諗下其他學校, 比自己多d選擇, 唔洗一定諗Island.

補充少少，例如CAIS 的網頁也說六歲入小一，但小二或以上 Student placements are determined on an individual basis for Grades 2-12。我也認識有九月出生的孩子在其他31/8 cutoff 的學校十一歲考入七年級。

其實依D情況會係學校主動要佢升，定係家長申請？

作者: heebo 時間: 16-5-26 14:45

通常都是家長主動申請。但亦認識有小朋友考試後，學校建議讀低一年級，不知是程度問題抑或是因為沒有空缺。

GSIS ( kindergarten is by 31/8, but upper form is by assessment.)
Harbour School. They offer middle school year 6, 7, 8
KCIS cuts 31/12 but they use traditional Chinese.

If in the end only Island School give you a place, you will probably have to take it anyway. However, you are already outside the ESF system. So you need to wait until all ESF primary students settle down with their choices. The places released eventually available to outsiders are probably not going to be as many as you thought.

"去得大圍咁遠返學, 就唔洗一定諗Island School. " You are stuck in an awkward position and not like you have a lot of choices or options. If I were you, I would be happy to take any offer. Which school(s) do you mean when you said you can have other choices? ICS? YCIS? AIS? RCHK? CAIS? Some of them have 31/8 cut off but even if they do not, honestly, with the transition phase from primary to secondary, a lot of students in IS or LS is looking for a chance to switch to the IS secondary school they like. It is not going to be like the piece of cake you expected.

If in the end Island School is the easiet choice, then you probably have to take it anyway. I know a few families that live on the island with kids going schools in NT. If you are too concerned with travelling time, you might wish to consider moving to Tai Wai.

Last, about the cut off date. I strongly suggest that you call the schools up to speak with admission officers. Some schools are very flexible with the cut off date if the student is much older. The most extreme case is a child 2 years older than his peers. So a responsible school would always be willing to consider a student's application on its own. The first thing is you need to somehow "beg" for a chance of interview. Then you can put forth your case to the interviewer.

Good luck.
