我小朋友係可以接受傳統或活動教學,選IS係想佢有多d時間和空間發展,睇多d書、自主學習,唔想比好多唔係好有意思的功課困住佢。另外,IS的英普語境亦比較好。

The way of teaching is different e.g.
Maths standard is relatively easier e.g. Things kids learn at primary LS may not happen until secondary school in IS or foreign country
The way we learn English is different, we read books, discuss in groups, write stories, do speech. No dictation, test in early age. LS more focus on technical side of English language which is understandable as English is not their first language.but having said this, it does not mean IS or kids who study at foreign country is necessarily strong in written or reading skills,
Foreign education system seldom rank students at early age, less test, exam so less competitive

I believe every kid has the ability to adapt to different education system with the support of parents and teachers but takes time. it took me 3 years to listen and speak English in a foreign country naturally starting with zero understanding
A good thing about LS is the diversity of children which is important for kids' development
Now as a parent I also have to decide what to provide to my kid so interest to hear from other parents

RC taught Chinese in Traditional Chinese and the Chinese level is good in standard, and they run IB in whole 13 school years....Besides, most of the IS taught Chinese in Simplified Chinese, for example ESF's school, they run IGCSE in year 10 and 11, then IBDP in year 12 and 13.

Definitely as a kid, I would prefer IS or foreign education as life is much easier and so is my parents but there are trade off... reading and oral in Chinese is fine but writing is much weaker compare to local student so eg if you apply hk govt job, you may not pass written assessment...
I also see the good side of LS but it is not easy for parents nowadays..

I think the major difference between local schools and IS is culture. If you've studied at both schools, you should know what I mean.
I have relatives study at LS and they're very competitive in sports, music and academics. I can see the merits cos parents and kids really need to work hard even at early age and be very efficient in time management and have good EQ which are all good things to master. But I also see the danger of getting into mindsets of valuing too much about beating others and ignoring teamwork and sometimes fun to them is a foreign word.

I agree.. the efforts are huge at early age. it creates lots of pressure psychologically. Some kids excel under pressure but some are crushed. My only worry about IS is that it will become another competitive playground in future years as it becomes more and more popular amongst parents...in the old days we choose IS because we can't study local, now is different..

I joined an information session of an international school and the principal said, nowadays we don't stress on teaching the kids the knowledge, but to inspire him to find the ans/solution himself. I think it is what I want to see in my kid. He knows how to calculate 1+1=2 which is great, but a set of computer can do it all, much more quickly. What he needs to know is WHY he is adding 1 to 1。

Agreed. Nowadays many knowledge and info can be acquired in google at fingertips rather than simply memorizing from books. Learning how to learn and problem solving are more important if you are foreseeing what the world will be 20 years later. Unfortunately nowadays most LS still measure students by countless traditional tests and exams.

我覺得國際學校會對小朋友多作出正面的評價, 比較少批評。老師比較明白小朋友係唔同的成長階段會遇到唔同的問題, 所以對小朋友會多些包容。小班教學, 老師有多些空間觀察學生, 了解學生性格。

Chongcm, sounds like your child is still young and I'm glad you are carefully weighting the pros and cons of each education system. Many has shared their opinion here (and/or in LS forums if you are wise to ask the same question on different forums), so I'll just raise a few points which may be useful for you at this stage:
1) Stick to one language per parent / caretaker, esp when you haven't decided which path to go for. It is easy to parents to mix languages at this stage, which is not constructive to a child's language acquisition.
2) Once you have decided on a certain system, try your best to stick to it instead of switching around. As you have wisely pointed out, each system has its pros and cons, and each child get to only choose one. It'd be better to make up our mind than to have a child try out different systems or even straddle between two at the same time (seriously, I've seen it done before; it's not healthy for the child as all)
3) You are correct to point out the increased competitiveness of IS due to more Asian parents being in the system. Seem like in HK, we are fortunate enough to have choices, but at the same time we don't get to choose this competitive environment which permeates through all schools. Look for what suits your family's philosophy the most, but do be aware that in the end, we are in Hong Kong.
Love to hear your conclusions and questions after 1/2 year of searching...

Disclaimer: I studied in an elite girl school until Secondary 3, then to the US until I gradated from College
Husband is ESF graduate from Primary all the way to F.7.
We were discussing about the background of the people working in his Investment bank, which is one of the top American bank. All the MD / directors / senior management / bankers are either foreigners / mainlanders, while the local grads are mostly in the operation / IT / back office. Don't want to be stereotypical but it shows the skills of the two different kind of education train up.
Our daughter has started Year 1 in ESF. She is definitely becoming more and more expressive and speak up her mind. She really does have a mind of her own and won't be influenced easily unless she's been convinced with "sound" reasons. And this is the kind of skills I now believe is most important - critical and analytical thinking, articulation and expressiveness etc.
But yes it does come with a price, expensive tuition and weak written Chinese (her mandarin speaking is still good) and I'll live with that. I supplement with traditional Chinese writing at home daily and she's progressing well.

As in the business world, the mainlanders here are observed to be proficient in both Chinese and English, well-connected and educated...at least in the banks I know.

The people who know China's education system best are the mainland Chinese themselves, and since there are far more mainland Chinese coming to HK to study than Hongkongers going in the opposite direction, the conclusion is pretty obvious.

I believe that those Mainlander enrolled in the Universities in Hong Kong are trying boarden their experience and trying to go out and learn, just like those Hong Kongers going to other countries. As some others mentioned that there are quite a numbers of students in Mainland when comparing to HK.
Anyway, I have no idea about the education system in Mainland but there is a fact that they are a lot more aggressive and proactive in their learning attitude. Maybe that's their culture. They will not give up any chance in front of them. There are many good examples from my friend who teaches in HKU. Based on his observation, the local students are no way to compare with those from Mainland. The professor and lecturers are all with similar comments.

像前面有人說的,能從內地考入HKU的,很可能都是各地狀元,每年高考一千萬人里拼出的幾千人,可想需要怎樣的毅力和能力。而在hk同等成績的學生可以有更多選擇,未必留港讀大學。所以在本地高校出現這種被「碾壓」的狀況也不難理解,收生質量決定的。

If the reason for mainland Chinese coming to HK to study is simply to broaden their experience rather than being attracted by a genuine difference in terms of quality of the education system, then we should see Hongkongers being just as eager to go in the opposite direction since China's education system is just as good if not better, but we don't see that happening. Furthermore, when we talk of mainland Chinese coming to HK to study, it doesn't just occur at university level, there are long lines of uniformed children crossing the Lowu border every morning in a southerly direction, and zero going the opposite way.
I'm not saying HK's education system is good, it certainly is not, but if you compare it with China's, you can see how people vote with their feet, and lastly, would YOU send your children to attend school in China? Like I said, there is no need to go out of one's way to fantasize about China's education system :)

As I have stated earlier, in the investment banks I know, all the bankers / traders / MD / directors are either foreigners or mainlanders , while the local graduates (and they are the top of the classes) are mostly in operations / IT / back office.

You will be surprised to see the increase in no. of local students going back to China (or Taiwan an ...
Assuming there is such an increase, are you saying they go (back?) to China to study so they'll be trained like a mainlander and thus have a better chance of becoming MD / directors / senior management of an investment bank or some other corporation? Haha, I'm sorry to say I'm not convinced, the mainlander MDs you've seen are in their positions not BECAUSE of an education in China, but DESPITE of an education in China.
In any case, I do respect people who put their money where their mouth is and actually practice what they preach, so when you consider education choices for your children you should position schools in China as the top choice :)

I only say what I observe, I don't know why there is an increase in the no. of HK students going to China to further their studies, maybe they want to be MDS, or maybe as simple as they like the campus / education they offer, I don't know. And I do not believe all mainlander MDs get to the top with only or any connections at all. Those people at the top are very smart and do their job well.
I'm not here to praise or trash China education as I do not comment on things I do not know or have any first-hand experience. Even though this is the cyber world and one can practically say whatever they want with no consequences, I would appreciate you do not put words in others mouth and making assumption or recommendation for others believing you know best or being smart.

I agree, I never doubt the quality of the people, I'm commenting on their education system.
Lastly, if we don't know something we can always ask, there are enough mainlanders in HK to make asking easy.

Mainlander MDs are highflyers despite their education.

I have said this for HK typical students or poor parenting in the past but I guess it applies to Mainland China education too.

That's what I meant. These mainlander MDs are smart and they got to where they are in spite of their education in China, not because of it. If anything, the rote learning spoon-feeding rigid education they received in China was a hindrance rather than a help.

大投行有很多大陸人高層系時勢使然。而家絕大部分的 deal 同 IPO 都同大陸有關。
系八九十年代,仲有好多香港公司deal 時,大投行有好多香港畢業生做到 MD,其中唔少系香港傳統 local school 畢業。就算系大學都唔一定系外國名校返黎,個時每年都有請 中大、港大 畢業生,其中唔少做到 MD。
大陸中小學比香港更谷!而家大陸有 D 錢或有D辦法的父母,都爭住將孩子送出國讀書,而且越推越前,很多初中就出國。
就算清華北大,佢地D 學生硬知識就世界一流,但學校管學生的手法就系好似香港中學管學生甘。我常想,呢班甘聰明的學生如果有個自由開放的環境讀書,成就應該會更大。
至於國内學生點解表現比香港學生好?兩個字: 鬥心!
呢個系同佢地成長環境有關,因爲從小在學校、社會嘜都要鬥一餐至有,佢地從小就學識要爭,同埋知道搞關係的重要性,識得討好要討好的人。就算國内,富裕大城市的學生努力程度及鬥心都唔及二三綫城市及農村。在此我不作價值判斷,無話岩唔岩,大陸環境就系甘。問題系你會唔會比仔女系甘 ge (强調鬥爭) 環境成長?

Perhaps it just so happens in your social circle. I am a professional and many of my fellow classmates who graduated from HKU are holding MD/ VP positions in top-tire i-banks such as Goldman Sachs and UBS, we graduated from an elite program at HKU. I get to meet different senior management on a day-to-day basis and from my own observation, i do not see the big gap you've mentioned between Hong Kongers and mainland Chinese. There are smart and less smart people all around us, may or may not be related to the education system. But one thing I found quite interesting in your posts is that you place much emphasis on a person's job title, seems like you link job titles to a person's ability / intelligence which makes me quite uncomfortable. I hope this wasn't what you are trying to say.
