由國際學校轉入培橋, 超級人生交

alan1013

我的女兒在一國際學校就讀P1,想替她轉去培橋, 她的Eng非常好,但中文就....學校也每天上普通話堂, 但和英文程度差天共地, 而且她很自我, 冇規?, 冇大冇細....
想轉培橋, 因想女兒中文好和紀律好些, 因我怕6年後她的性格會太"鬼妹",反而我認為由小到大有道德紀律領

Pui Kiu is not a very discipline school, English of course not so good as IS.

想轉培橋, 因想女兒中文好和紀律好些, 因我怕6年後她的性格會太"鬼妹",反而我認為由小到大有道德紀律領覑她,會較少機會行差踏錯 (我不是說study in IS 會學壞, 我只說自己的女兒性格), 然後將來去外國讀大學, 但和太太意見不一致, 她認為快樂過童年最重要,而且她怕去了pui kiu英文會差鰦,我卻不認為, 各位可否給意見呢?
重有pui kiu已經收晒生(Grade 1)我想coming 9月入到是否"0"機會? 又問女兒在IS ready 升P2的, 究竟我應apply Grade 1 or Grade 2呢?

我覺得有冇規矩, 同讀咩學校關係唔大
係鍾意犯規, 就算學校嚴, 一樣會犯校規
你不如諗有咩方法教導佢重好

當然自己都要教,但小朋友大部份時間在學校, 我就認為校風就好重要啦! 讀咩學校冇關係? 唔係掛???!!! 無事係絕對的,難道正如你說有方法教就無事咩?

想請問, 你地初初係基於咩考慮, 比阿女讀IS? 呢個應該係一個好大既決定, 深思熟慮, 由幼稚園開始, 就安排小朋友入讀English-speaking 學校, 銜接IS小學. IS無論學習語言, 學習方法, 校園氣氛, 評核制度, 學生背景等等, 都同本地幼稚園/小學好唔同.

恕我直言, 點解會到

非常同意FUNG12345既意見,尤其你個小朋友只係P1, 係呢個年紀(或以前),家庭對佢性格既影響絕對係支配性既,相對上學校既影響細好多.汝其要小朋友受轉校之苦,倒不如從家教方面入手啦![/quote]

thanks for all your opinions. 正如我說: 人生交

重有,當初入IS因為希望接受活動教學instead of 傳統教學, 但好像IS教學方法是好, 但卻真的少了傳統學校的一份紀律, 難道我真的只能二選一, 香港真的沒有共有2種優點的學校嗎?

Just wonder which IS are you referring to?  If ESF, the discipline in primary is not loose at all, some parents even said that it is very strict in some of their schools.  So very much depends on which school you are talking about.  Local schools' discipline is... as I have experienced:  answer according to model answers,  "do not do this...do not do that"...  "if you have not done this, you will be punished by..."  so and so....will the kid be happy??

Just my personal experience.  IS is not superior, but its teaching method is really very different.  I have a few friends changing to local schools after 1 year IS due to lower school fees and more Chinese, but they want to change back to IS after P.3 when the pressure of TSA comes...  

Pui Kiu is a Chinese background school using IS teaching approach... not sure if it is good, better take a look yourself.

If you want a more "disciplined" IS, you can also take a look at Singapore International School.

alan1013,

你所要的紀律是甚麼？

很多人將子女送入IS，就是想訓練小朋友自動自覺學習，不會墨守成規。很多家長都覺得培僑像IS一樣不注重紀律，氣氛一樣都很自由，所以如果你想要的紀律是像傳統學校般的話，不如轉去一些傳統名校好過。

參加女童軍或聖約翰救傷隊般的紀律團體，會不會有用？

傳統名校一般比較自由度大d, 但又唔會唔注重紀律
學o既野(特別係英文), 又唔會淺過國際學校
第時想轉返去國際學校或者去外國都唔會追唔上

Is it very strict for ESF Shatin Junior School then?

Agreed with WYMOM, your daughter may change Singapore IS or stay at ESF is better than local school.
Have you watched a Pearl TV program called 'Super Nanny' ? If your daughter's character is stubborn, don't let her study at local school, you and your wife should be teached her by positive ways. All the IS are using + ways, but the local schools don't. If your daughter studied at local school, it will makes her character worst than now.

A lot of local schools dislike the student talkative and active, the teachers will labelled them as a naughty student.

我問過培橋小學是用中文教, 即是數學也是, 救命, 我有兩個小朋友準備由 IS 轉私校，　但又想找一些有 IB 的學校，　方便日後出國讀書．王錦輝是我選擇之一，　但我細仔要 repeat 一年.......

WYmom

citygirl,

Is 王錦輝 an IB school?  I doubt very much.  For IB private local schools, there is only Victoria now, maybe CKY, ISF, DBS, St. Paul Co-ed and Creative Secondary in future...there are only a few English local primary schools, even Creative is a Chinese primary though it may have IBD in secondary!

For boys, DBSPD is very famous and it is gradually adopting more IS method, but of course it is not easy to get in.

I think we should really take a look at Pui Kiu as the class teacher of my daughter highly recommends this school to us. She said this is a good school. So I will target into this school.  However, admission is full long long time ago, I wonder shall I still apply for Grade 1 in the coming school year?
