弘  立  書  院  舉  行  下  學  年  插  班  生  的  入  學  講  座  ，  吸  引  數  百  家  長  出  席  。

　　私立一條龍學校弘立書院，昨舉辦開放日及下學年插班生入學講座，該校表示下學年二年級至十一年級的插班生名額，視乎各級離校人數而定，強調若申請人數激烈，可彈性開班：又指學校較覑重學生的面試表現及學術成績，提醒家長毋須替子女提交「豪華裝」履歷表。有家長希望女兒脫離主流課程，減輕功課壓力。

　　弘立書院設有小學部及中學部，提供小一預備班至中學十二年級的課程，小學部採用校本課程，覑重普通話及英語，中學部則採用國際文憑(IB)課程，並實行十五至二十二人的小班教學。該校昨日舉辦開放日，同時舉行下學年二年級至十一年級的插班生入學講座，吸引約四百名家長出席。

　　書院招生部經理周迪遒在講座上指出，插班生的名額是視乎各級離校人數而定，「若個別年級吸引很多人申請，而大多申請者均通過入學評估，學校可嘗試開多一班，取錄合資格的申請者。」有關申請將於本月二十二日截止，六月中旬前公布結果。

　　至於下月進行的入學評估，周迪遒透露，將設有中文、英文及數學科三份考卷，以及普通話及英語雙語面試，「中英文科均設閱讀理解及作文兩部分，雙語面試則想了解學生的對答能力。」他透露，會邀請申請學生進行小組活動，觀察學生的合作性及溝通技巧，又邀請家長與校長面談，了解家長對學校的認識。

　　不少家長關注到子女課外活動的佔分比例，周迪遒笑言，學校招生辦公室空間太少，未能儲存幾寸厚的「豪華裝」履歷表，「學校歡迎家長提交子女參與課外活動的額外資料，但始終申請學生的語文水平較重要。」

　　該校本學年學費約十三萬元至十七萬元，下學年的未訂定，申請助學金的新生則可獲兩成至全數減免學費，視乎家庭收入，以四人家庭為例，每月總入息少於七萬七千元便初步符合申請要求。

　　出席講座的家長吳先生稱，女兒現於中西區一所小學就讀小三，功課十分繁重，有意替女兒申請下學年轉讀弘立書院的四年級，「女兒每晚做功課兩至三小時，故希望女兒脫離傳統課程，減輕功課壓力。」

ISF is not an international school in the traditional sense.  But we should broaden our definition of IS to include non local curriculum schools.

Whether it accepts Chinese westerners or any nationalities, its curriculum is still IB. So according to your new comment about broadening our view it is truly an IS?!

No body would dispute YCIS, KCIS being an IS for many years.  But what is the percentage of local HK and Chinese in these schools?  Much higher than ISF I bet.

I am not saying the international student mix is not important.  But for forum discussions, it is not very useful to define such a narrow sense of IS.  Where do you want ISF to be discussed?  Local primary forum?

Hi caa, the "less IS" was I quoted not shadeslayer. most parents applying ISF think it is an international school. It is an objective expectation though only clear-eye parents like you know it is not. No matter what, the definition of IS becomes vague that we can only identify LS which using local education system for admission, promotion to secondary and public exam....

It's written in their latest newsletter that ISF is seeking concurrent accreditation  through two international school accrediting bodies: The Council of International Schools(CIS) and The Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). Why did ISF keep on telling parents it is not an international school? What's the benefit of not being an international school?

Think of it as the definition given by the EDB.  It is not something that a school can choose.

That's why EDB in HK makes us all confused and complicated the things. Parents just follow you will to pick your best choice.

Yes, once the school is given a PIS status by the HK government, it is not an IS in the strictest sense.  It will always have 70% HK resident rule.  I don't think it can easily be changed regardless of what the school does.
Newer International school like Harrow were given IS status from day 1.

Bottom lines is, when choosing a non local curriculum in HK, one should lay eyes on more than just traditional IS.

Personally, I think it is pointless to debate what is an IS and which one is real.  For schools that do not offer DSE, they should all be called non-traditional schools with the understanding that it is a broad spectrum.  Branding some as real, implying that others are fake, will just poison the discussion and make it unnecessarily contentious.
