ESF IGCSE [複製鏈接]

My sister’s daughter is studying there.

EFS Island school
year 10, 11, 只教 8科IGCSE科,不是10科.

學生想考多科,要自修其他科目, 而且每星期只需要上14堂學科( 每料只有2堂/week), 其他堂用來做

活動, ECA, 興趣班, 體育 自修....  ( 好 relaxed).

EFS Island school. For year 10 and 11
they only teach 8 subject and they teach 14 lessons only per week. If you want to take more subjects, the  student will do by self-study and take extra lessons in other tutor center.

EFS Island school will do teaching for only 14 lessons per week instead of 25 lessons or 30 lessons per weeks. The rest 12 lessons will be for ECA or PE or home study only.

This is the time table of Island school of Year 10:

Mon: PE and Global Prospective, student project discussion lessons

Tue: 4 academic lessons and 1 lesson self study

Wed: 1 academic lesson and 3 lessons ECA (Sports or activities) school end 2:35pm

Thru: 2 academic lessons and 3 lesson ECA

Fri:
5 academic lessons

Summary: 14 lessons per weeks, 6 lessons ECA, 2 lessons PE, 1 Lesson self study.

Other International schools (IGCSE) will teach at least 25 -30  lessons for academic per weeks and ECA will be after school hours instead of school hours.

So they always have a place available for year 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. No need to wait and pay for any nomination right. So this year they have total about 120 students new student ( 20 -28 new students per each year/grade. They are non-selective school.

If you want a school more emphasis/focus on academic for IGCSE , this school is not your choice.

Anyone knows the teaching lessons/hours per week for other EFS schools like

KG5 , South Island, West Island, Shatin college

I only know that EFS Island school will provide 15 hours /lessons for total 8 subjects
( including PE and Global Prospective). If student need to take more subject, they have to do self study or get tutor outside the school.

But other international schools or UK schools for GCSE or IGCSE will provide

at least 25 lessons to 30 lessons ( 25 – 35 lessons) per week for student.

The following schools will take GCSE/IGCSE for year 10 & 11

Kellett
School:
30 lessons per weeks, ECA after school ( 6 lessons per day)

French International school: 28-33 lessons per weeks. ECA after school

Korean International school ( International section): 25 lessons. ECA after school

KCIS: 25 lessons ECA after school

How come Island school will provide 15 lessons only? And the rest lessons for ECA or self study for year 10 & 11. during school hours.  One year teaching lessons only  15 x 30 weeks = 450 hours ( Island school) , but other school offer at least 25 hours x 30 weeks = 750 hours lessons . This is so big difference.

Other parents from other EFS schools for kids studying in  year 10, 11, plesae share comemnt.

ESF school Island school學校Year 10, 11班每星期24堂是正確的,但我的論點是在24堂裏只有15堂是真正係教學用途（13堂教學科igcse加2堂PE)其他9堂用來做一些活動及興趣班包括有 Sport, culture, dance,design or self study lesson看學生選擇students choice . Island school 叫: Element .
但這9堂完全不關  IGCSE課程, 所
以有些學生也要外出補習, 以補學校教學不足處'因時數教少. 或學生靠自修.

我可給 Island school  time table 給參考便知道 academic lessons per week

所以作為家長我們可以有選擇權去選一些學校提供正常每星期25堂學術教學,並非只是提供 15堂教學,因為其他國際學校學校每星期是最少每星期有 25 lessons foracademic  subject teaching for IGCSE course

所以在此請問其他‧家長學生是否知道  South Island, West Island , KGV, or  Shatin college的教學 lessonsper week.

你問: 至於其他學校每星期26-35堂，真是要看每節多少分鐘

我只知香港FIS, KCIS, KIS, Kellett school,Harrow HK 及 UK state schools  Year 9, 10, 11 每節 55- 60 分鐘 , 上學術科是最少 25 堂/per week

我只想問 有沒有家長知道其他 ESF schoosl 是否不一樣,還是不同呢
