ST. Stephen College 學校功課多唔多?是否直升中學?

ETK

My daughter is a P1 student now at SSCPS. The homework is more than I expected, but it is reasonable compare with other traditional schools. However, she really enjoys her school life there.

ETK,

請問英文是否nat teacher 教?默書多不多? 將來會否轉IB School ?  請指教?

ETK

What is "nat teacher"? Do you mean native teacher?? If it is, most of the English teachers are native! You can check on the school web-site. The kids do not have many English dictations, it is about once every three weeks.  But the kids have Chinese dictation once a week. I do not think SSCPS is going to change to the IB system.

ETk,

請問此校校風如何，是要求嚴格定自由開心，另中、英、數程度深嗎？小朋友語言能力高嗎？學校語言環境如何？很抱歉太多問題，THANKS！

amy28,

I would considerate it is a relax school and the children do have descipline, eventhough they are active.
The work load of SSCPS is really higher than I expected, but it is manageable. My daughter went to Victoria Kindergarten, therefore her Chinese is not very strong.  However, the children from my daughter's class are confident in speaking English & Chinese . Our Maths is taught in English and it is the same standard as most schools.  We use Longman and we use the year one book!!
I love the campus and the canteen.  Most of all, my little is having a great time! Good luck.

ETK,

請問課堂以外同學之間是用英文或普通話溝通, 學校有沒有規定? 我小朋友都係讀維多利亞k2, 中文追不追上? 維小中文程度低實在有點擔心, 請問各下為何不選擇維多利亞小學而選St. Stephen, 是否St Stephen 比較維小好?聽聞今年有多位k3生選擇St Stephen 而放棄維小直上, 不知維小是否辦得不好還是其他原因, 來年本人即將選校請多多指教?

Leechi,

Don't worry about Victoria.  It is a very happy school. The main reason I have chosen SSCPS was the campus and canteen.  And my daughter fell in love with SSCPS the day she went for her interview. And she was praying the school would accept her and luckily she got accepted.
I have to be fair, my daughter's Chinese is not very strong due to our family environment, I have not made her read many Chinese books since she was a kid.  And it is too late to start now.  So it is not all to do with Victoria.
I know most of the kids who study at Victoria now are very happy and relax and they do learn, not much homework. But with SSCPS is not as relax as Victoria, but the kids can cope!!! It is up to the parents!!
SSCPS's teacher ask the student to speak PTH and English , but the kids switch back to cantonese most of the time.
