Dear Larchai,
Education is a years-long commitment, and in case of primary school, you are talking about at least 6 years of commitment (and 12 years if you really go to their "through-train" secondary school as well).
There are many criteria in choosing schools, such as method of teaching, medium of instructions, public examination results, students' conducts, courses offered, traveling convenience, etc.
But among all those factors, I would think that "traveling convenience" should not be such a big deal in Hong Kong, especially among families with average income or above. For example, I would seriously doubt that anybody would turn down an offer from DGJS or St. Paul's Co-ed preparatory primary schools simply because they are far away.
In case of medium of instructions, there are a host of DSS or privately-run primary schools thats has more renowned traditions, better public examination results, use English as the medium of instruction, and are not that much expensive than Delia (Man Kiu) English Primary School, such as St. Clare's Primary School, Po Leung Kuk Camões Tan Siu Lin Primary School, and the like. Of course, it would required your kids to compete with others to get into these ones, as all renowned schools probably are.
I think those are probably the reasons why not that much people would talk about Delia (Man Kiu). It does not meant that it might never become a renowned school someday, just that it is not there yet.
Of course, if you would like to put your faith in Delia (Man Kiu), do so and involve passionately as parents to make sure your kids receive the best possible education as provide by this school. As "early adopters", you have the advantage of having a less-than-keen competition when applying for it.
But for the many of of us, we might be taking a more prudent, maybe even "conservative" route in choosing schools. Hence, the relative lack of discussion about this particular Delia school.

simply speaking, is it that DELIA brand name is not good at all in HKG, so even if it is DSS, cheap, English speaking environment and close to the MTR, it is still not interested by most of the HK par ...
