No, it is going to be Discovery Bay PIS, NOT Renaissance.  Renaissance College was previously Phoenix IS.  They are 2 different schools.

CSW,

Yes, local school is usually using "model answer" approach.  If you switch your son to IS, you may need to teach him Chinese after school then.

Local school P.1 equals to Year 2 in ESF (British system), it is too late now to apply 07/08, so if you apply for year 08/09, it will be Year 4.  For other IS, it can be Year 3 or 4 depending on the system.

Good Luck.
