Re: 請問有沒有港大同學會小學的家長?
Hello everyone,
I do not mean to talk bad about HKUGA Primary School. Furthermore, my son is still studying there. All I have mentioned before are facts. They are true incidents. They have been accumulating since day one. As a parent, I would love to see things turn better and not worst as time goes by. I would love to see the teaching force grow bigger and stronger, and not the one now with teachers keep leaving and curriculums keep changing with no focus.
Please do not give me the excuse that my son or my daughter is happy studying there, and my child is learning. Therefore, it is a good school. Many teachers have expressed that the school has a serious discipline problem and students are so restless all the time that they cannot concentrate in their learning. All they know is fun and play. School is a tough place, learning is tough; however, it is still relatively easier to acquire knowledge under pressure when you are young than trying to catch up after they grow older. The world has changed. You could get a good job as a secondary school graduate 25 years ago, but now you will have difficulties in finding a job even with a PhD. I think children are too protected these days and they will not be able to handle any pressure when they join the real world in the future.
I have seen many examples like this. School is new and full of new ideas to draw attentions; however, not all good ideas are good. Unfortunately, you will not see the impacts until many years to come. By then, your child will not get a second chance. Look at our education system run by the EMB. The government kept changing our education system for the past 10 years and now they said it is not working and we need to change again. With all the time and money wasted and our children were subjects in their experiments, we can see our standard of education now is much lower than 10 to 15 years ago.
I have a feeling that most people want to attach themselves to the good things and the brand names. And they choose to ignore the problems. If we let this accumulate on, we will get a tumor. And someday someone will suffer from it. Think hard, everyone!
I can choose to keep my mouth shut or talk quietly among parents as many do, hoping to get back into the HKUGA College after P.6. Some are just having their children there killing time because they will move back to their own countries in the near future. If you know the figures, you will see that not only they have teachers leaving in the middle of the school year; they also have students switching schools in the middle of the school terms, too. Why?
At the meeting on last Wednesday evening, a roomful of P.4 parents have directed their accumulated frustrations and dissatisfactions about the school towards the Principal and the Vice-principal. That session lasted for almost 2-1/2 hours. Do you think those parents are all unreasonable or is it time for them to do something for the children? They have tried for 3 years and they want to give the school one more chance before switching their children to another school in timefor P.5 and P.6.
I do not complain nor speak out with no reason. I believe if we take the privilege to speak in this forum, we need to speak the truth to the extend of our knowledge. As long as I am not misleading anyone, I do not need to gain everyone’s approval.
For the record, I have my primary and secondary education at one of the best school in Hong Kong, and I have earned 2 university degrees abroad. I have a clear understanding of the education systems at home and overseas. I know schooling is tough but I enjoyed every bit of it. Learning is a hard process! Remember, “No Pain, No Gain!” But it doesn’t mean it can’t be fun. It just needed to be in the right way.
Remember to be subjective and think further down when choosing a school for your children. Always be brave to correct your mistakes once you found out you have made the wrong choice. You are not buying T-shirt with a brand name attached to it. It is your child’s future!
Signing off. Good luck to everyone!
