Application for Beacon Hill School (born in 2000)

Ruby1219

Can someone confirm me the deadline for application submission (non-siblings) for kids born in 2000 applying P.1 in Beacon Hill School ?
I read from the ESF forum today that some parents (with kids now studying in ESF kindy in Tsing Yi, born in 2000) had already handed in their applications in mid June and got the reply from BHS that the no. of application this year has doubled that of last year's.
I know that kids from ESF kindy should have NO priority in the application. So, I'm very confused (& scared). Don't tell me that I have missed the deadline @#$%^*(
Please let me know if anyone know the info'.

Thanks,
Ruby

CherylMum,

Really ? I've never heard this and many sources said that ESF Kindy does not have priority in ESF Primary, even the principal of my son' kindy (Anfield), who's been working in ESF before
But anyway, thank you very much for you info'

Hi, Just share some info.

Pupils studying at ESF kindergartens have already submitted application forms in June. From the pre-application talk organized by the ESF TY kindergarten, 97.8% of ESF TY applicants were admitted to ESF primary last year.

Thank you. I'll check with ESF then.

I'd sent email to BHS. They did not directly answer me the question why students from ESF kindy had already submitted their application (seemed admitted silently) but just told me that I should hand in my application in mid September.

Hi Ruby 1219,

It has been a long standing policy of ESF to accept applications from its kindergartens in May or June. Those children have priority over others.

For other kindergarteners, they can only submit their applications in September. How ESF sorts its interview lists is unknown to anybody.
