Offer received from YORK

CharmingYoYo

Anyone received offer from YORK?

We received an offer from YORK today and the class will be starting from mid of Jan 2011.  It is the international class.  My son is "BIG" boy.

I believe your offer should be for 尖子班.
Those Big B can start the class soon straight away with an offer being given.

Thanks for your info.

The staff said that we must confirm the offer on 25 Oct 2010.  If we reject the offer, can we still get the offer to study K1 in Sep 2011.

Did you all apply for the Int'l class of K1 next year?  Why the class will be starting from Jan 2011? Is it a PN class or K1 class?

Yes. But for Sept 2011, they will only give you the local stream offer (PM class). This is what the office people told me.

Why still have parents like York?

The principal and the kinder's mission and practice are conflicting and controversal..........

But I appli for local stream am, not international stream. Don't know if they will do the same to capture more school fees? Caused they started N1 class newly. My B is also big B.

Did you report in your application form you are already studing in N1 class.

我07/09交FORM, 23/10聽briefing, 6/11可interview.  但點解已有家長有offer, in咁多round, 究竟仲有冇位嫁? 應唔應該去interview好呢?

I also got the offer today is call "Head Start", but I applied the local stream and asking can my son change to int'l stream as I confused the different between these two stream, the staff told me all studying material are special for this class and that will be efficient for them if study to K3.

IN咗足足一個月，冇RESULT、冇電話，完全唔知間學校想點，就算唔收都應該寄翻封信通知吖，我有比回郵信封的。

Me too... no news yet for my small b (interviewed on 9/25).  I am disappointed about that.

So I'd better expect good results coming from forthcoming interviews (peak month in Nov).... if we can get offers from famous / good kinders (also in Kln Tong) first, I will definitely give up York.

我個仔是大仔來架在10月2號IN架,,,今日收到信但唔收...不過我都知一定唔收因為我從未見過個仔表現咁差架....仲要同個老師搶條"毛毛魚".....可能阿仔都知自已在呢間學校都讀唔來架.....

真不明解何以筆者會作出此言論，請問你子女是否曾經就讀YORK，有一些不快經歷？
我作為一個現任YORK學生的家長，願聞其詳！
不然的話，這麼言論真的對所有YORK的學生、家長、教師及一衆職員頗不公道！
明白校長之前的一些言論及建議方案頗為令人失望！但有關亂收費用一項，作為用家的我；除卻當曰註冊時要支付的雜費外；有關課外活動，小囡統統沒有參加。但沒有什麼異樣！
因此再次懇請其他只是道聽途說的筆者下筆前請多作引證。免得再傷害現就讀學生、家長及教職員。謝！
以上純為本人感受，不喜勿插！

Yes,I also think their existing mangement need to be improved, however, my daughters really learnt a lot from Oct 5 until now according to english,she can create own sentances.e.g, The cat sitting on the dry leaves.  She just two-years-old, that really impress me, before she know many words,but not yet create sentances.  And also when she go home can sing some new songs that I haven't teach her,of course, it is not so clear.  For me, in english aspect, I am no doubt they can able to teach my children.  Just not sure other aspects.

Well.... i understand your situation. U may simply let yr son to try the class from Feb 2011 till summer. If u have not better offer or u feel York's teaching is good, then u may keep your son studying there. If u shift to another better sch, then u only wastes the uniform & book expenses.

所以，為何要INTERVIEW我哋班細囝呢?  就算我哋係後備，都要發一封waiting list既信吖，點可以好似冇咗回事。遲d還有主流班既interview，我還未決定去唔去。

I also received call from York for an offer of "Head Start" class of local stream for my son today. The teacher said they only have 1 class (max. 25 students) and this class is mainly for "Big B" who can start the class in early 2011. Basically, they will under the same class for the coming 3.5 yrs and they expected to teach more for this class as they think Big B has potential to learn more.......

Actually, my son's performance is not good, I think he got offer is totally because he is a big b.....
