Lingnan is suitable for boys. The school adopts both activity based approach and traditional approach to the teaching of the lower grades. In the upper grades, as told, on top of traditional teaching, the school encourages inquiry learning. Students will do experiments and other sorts of activities to acquire knowledge. Generally speaking, boys' learning interest can be aroused more easily in this kind of environment.
97%學生派到頭三志願！ - this may not be a good indicator. what matters most is band1% or allocated to Eng school%. But I believe Tak Nga's result should be quite good.
Lingnan had its first secondary school allocation result in 2012. The first year result is usually not too outstanding since the banding % is set by the government, not based on the actual performance of the students. I've read a number of comments and found that the result was regarded as quite OK. As a parent, I of course hope that going forward the result can get better and better, and I believe this is a reasonable expectation too, based on the quality of the teaching team and the curriculum.
"10所收生成績未全面達標的英中，下學年需以中文教授主要學科 (stated in an article dated Dec 2009)" Tak Nga is one of them. I just found this info on the web. Also, this secondary school was classified as Band 2.
德雅！歷史悠久，口碑好！ - yes, Tak Nga should be a good school with 好口碑. 歷史悠久 however does not necessarily mean that the school is suitable for everyone. It is reasonable that if parents would prefer traditional approach and the linkage with a secondary school (even if it is a band 2 school), they should prefer Tak Nga to Lingnan.
