This is interesting post. YW vs DBS becomes YW vs LS.
YW is still a school could compare to those top schools.
I am quite confidence to YW future and not worry to what F.5 public examination.
My son is student first YW change to DSS. He is P.1 now and there already some homeworks. For the quality of homeworks, I don't see any drill exercise as he was only required to copy a word three times.
However, English subject is quite intensive as he was required to do composition It is not a one sentence "eter is a boy" this kind of babywords. Instead, prepare a note to parent of a request.
The topic is open however is not a single sentence exercise. It composes of five to sixs lines.
During recent parent meeting, I have an opportunity to meet parents of P.1. I only thought the in school competition would be very keen...
All parents are putting resources to their kids and already build a very strong team. I don't know how other top school student doing but there are already top parents in YW
Lv77 agree.
So far, YW arrange P.1 is quite good.
- English/Math using good method
- Putonghua using Native Mandarin teacher.
Hear that YW will use "Mainland Exchange teacher in Chinese" in future. it is a good idea.
In my view, Mainland has a lot of good heart teacher as experienced in Kingergarten. It will provide a better environment on Chinese.
However, I have a little bit worry on NET (native english speaker) as good NET is very "HOT" in the HK educational Market (international school, playgroup, tuition). It is not easy to have a good NET in primary school.
