On top of these which I agree, I have the following additional reasons:
1) enough sleep every night instead of homework and cramming for tests till mid-night
I strongly believe that sufficient sleep is necessary for brain and physical development. But the local education system is depriving kids of this!
2) time for reading, sports, music and even daydreaming
3) the way of learning languages by encouraging practice, not by memorising grammatical rules in the first place
4) the English and Mandarin (two of the most spoken languages in the world) immersion environment
5) the integration of knowledge with daily life
6) the encouraging learning environment, instead of a demotivating and competitive environment generally in local schools
