I would like to share with you, the parents of Raimondi Primary School, some experiences that I have after spending the past 5 years for my kid to study there. I think the reasons behind the most recent changes are not unexpected.
The School has been trying very hard to excel itself and stand out among the primary schools in HK by the introduction of policies like:
1. the use of PTH to teach Chinese
2. teaching English half an year ahead of other primary schools (like using 5B/6A textbooks for Primary 5 students)
3. teaching Mathematics mainly in Chinese with some English supplement to the selected topics
etc
Based on my obsevations over the years, I think the above policy has failed to achieve its purpose by raising the students' overall standard in terms of their language skills and study interests. On the contray, the non-standard course structure, in particularly point 2 and 3 above, has confused many students and parents in terms of assisting their kids in revising the tests and exams.
The co-ordination among the teachers to assign homework to students is close to "zero". Poor students are 'hit' by quite a heavy workload during the assessment period or even few days before the exams. Studies there is no longer an enjoyable experience. You know what I mean! I have heard that students stay up until 11pm and beyond during the assessment period. Sigh!
I think the new headmistress could have contributed the falling standard to the 'assessment' system. As many students do not take the assessments very seriously because they are not counted towards the final results. That could be used as an excuse to explain the falling standard, i.e. the low admission rate to its Secondary School this year. By doing so, the new headmistress does not need to do many things to revisit various old and poor policies. The students/parents will then become scapegoats!
