Have any comments for above two schools ?? Which school is better for non-chinese students ??

Actually my son is studying in PLK NPL F.1 but it's not really teaching full in English.  Most of the class time, my son told me the teacher have to teach in Chinese instead as most of the students can't understood while teaching in Englis.  I'm very disappointed so that I want to transfer my son to St. Margaret's Co-edu. English Primary & Seconday School in which I heard this school is accepting a sum of non-chinese students.  Is it right ?? How about the English standard of the students ??

Hoping that some of the parents can give me some ideas / more infos for these two schools.

Thanks a lot.

Dear Yoc11,

Thank you for you infos.

My son is 100% Chinese and he is born in Hong Kong but we provided International Education to him since kindergarden & primary school.  Owing to the high school fees of international school and he didn't study Chinese.  I have to transfer him to DDS schools which is offered French as second language instead of Chinese.

Do you know why the study atmosphere among students of NPL is not that good ??

Thanks

Suggest you go to the school and observe the students after school yourself.  St. Margaret Co-ed is still too new and students are mostly band 2.  PLK NPL's students mostly come from PLK TSL primary which is already an English primary with some foreign students, and heard that NPL is an DSS which accepts more band 1 students already.

One of my friends (resigned for a while already) used to teach in that school before. The school has some students coming from China, so they can't use 100% to teach.
Perhaps you can do more observation, maybe the situation has been improved.

Dear WYmon,

Thanks your infos and I knew that NPL is band 1 and St. Margaret is band 2.  That's why I choose NPL for my son.

Unfortunately, NPL also is too new because of some PTA activities was organised in Chinese medium instead of English/Chinese.  That's why the English speaking environment is not well prepared for the students and there are only 1-2 NET teachers too.  Moreover, my son said most of the students have to spent a lot of time to study so that they havn't any time to join ECA / Sports activities. That's mean NPL is emphasis academic result than ECA.  

On the other hand, St.Margaret have about 10 NET teachers and more Asian students than NPL is studying. St. Margaret organised French study tour every year which is NPL didn't have it.  The fact I know St. Margaret is very open to accept parents opinion and will take it into action if it accepted.  

The things I need to consider is the school far away from my home but NPL is very near.  As you know, there should be a lot of after-school activities in secondary and I'm scared my son need to spent a lots time in travelling. In addition, the students are mostly come from band 2 primary school that make me hesitate to apply this school.

On the whole, my son result is not too bad as he got No.8 of whole F.1 in the first-term exam and he is the winner of English speech non-open this year.  That's why I'm so query about NPL standard as my son didn't spent more time to study the exam.

Should I transfer him to the other school ????

jh1228,

I only heard that the students of SM are not very well-behaving, but I don't know if this is true.  That's why I suggest you go there and observe more.  I think apart from no. of NET teachers and activities,  it is also important to check if the qualities of teachers and students are good as teenage kids are very very much affected by their peers.  You may like to check out if there are other alternatives as well.

Another local DSS called YMCA Christian College at Tung Chung also has 30% foreign students and teachers.  They have some students studied in International Schools before. Just suggest an alternative for you to consider.

SM係舊年先至自行收生,之前佢要靠政府派入去, 質數係無保障!所以好多家長都說佢sm中學校風很差, plk既學校間間都講成績ga.  至於顏保齡係十分強調..佢地既學校係講"英文"包括課室裡外!但做唔做到呢? 就唔知啦! SM小學部的英語氣紛很好,政府學視報告都係甘話,SM小學部英語oral程度好高(包括在課室裡外都講英文), 而這點陳守仁既學生就做唔到啦!只係回應老師既問題先至用英文, 而到外面課室就係講中文, 這點係肯定,因朋友個囡囡都係讀陳守仁.這些係睇政府既學視報告先至知! 你double check吓,佢地SM舊年小6上中學味? SM佢舊年已自行收生應該好好多!!放學去睇吓d學風.
SM小學英文程度好高,p4已學中一既英文, 至英文oral方面都很好(小學), 但一定同國際學校有距離!

Dear Catcatmon,


很多謝你的寶貴意見. 請問在那裡可以看到關於SM政府學視報告呢 ??

其實除了就讀中一的大仔, 我還有就讀小五的二女和就讀小三的細仔. 兩人都是就讀SM小學部的.  非常認同你所提出SM小學部是做得越來越好, 更是一年勝一年. 因學校是非常接納家長不同的意見, 從善如流. 當然比起其他名校, 還有一大段距離. 因小五是學校第一次辦學, 統稱白老鼠, 初期在行政及教學上是頗混亂的, 有些家長甚至轉至其他國際學校. 相反地, 學校多收一些海外回流學生來填補那些離去生. 可能學校開始多人認同及接受吧.  慶幸小女很用功讀書, 從小二開始名次都是全級十名之內, 更拿到獎學金減免學費, 學校更提供更多進步獎鼓勵學生不斷學習和進步呢. 而現時的小三相比姐姐同期時, 學習內容更豐富吸引, 相信由小學部直接升上中學的學生及程度是無問題的.

無奈地中學部還未完全成熟引致大仔轉校時都不敢投她一票.  直至大仔在NPL讀了半年, 但出來的感覺真的與相像及坊間所說的有很大距離. 令我不知所措及非常失望, 大趺眼鏡. 可能NPL是保良局辦學, 予人感覺是可靠可信.  而SM因以前中學評價很差, 所以很多家長都不太接受.

但近期與SM中學部的家長閒談時發覺中學部已大大改善, 所以我老公想大仔轉至SM讀中二. 但本人很矛盾, 很難才考到NPL, 現在叫我放棄有些可惜, 真不知如何抉擇???? 人生交差點 !!!!

PS : 這篇中文足足用了差不多二小時, 因我的中文打字是很.....慢....的, 之前3次都不小心按錯鍵, 令到內容完全無晒, 簡直想喊及放棄, 但為了小朋友將來, 我一定要寫下來.  多謝大家支持 !!

Hi jh1228

原來你係SM既current parent, o甘你比我更清楚了!
視學報告係問小學部既家長比我既! 我搵唔番! 報告內容話佢地小學生英文oral 程度高, 但都有講唔好既野架,如:校長觀課不足, 老師不是專科專教,可能校長first priority 請左些流利英文既老師先,我想你會比我更清楚.
我去過SM既open day, 佢地小學部d學生英文好好, 中學就唔知啦! 如想公開考試成績好, 我覺得保記既學校會好好多,but想小朋友活d, 唔係死讀書果類,  一定係SM,  保記既學校係好傳統同保守.

我朋友女兒讀PLK既小學好嚴架! 兩個小朋友一齊去toilet,出來比老師處罰.
我將會送細女去SM讀小學,佢唔多識講中文,所以無mud選擇.今年10月會去面試.

你個小朋友好叻喎!全級10名.



對不起, 我老細係外國人, 所以係寫字樓每次都要打中文, 佢以為我覆緊大陸客d e-mail, 其實我打中文都好唔掂,下次再傾!

Dear IH,

Yes, all the primary students will promote to the secondary section of the same school BUT the Assistant Primary Head Teacher will call the parents many times to request them to push their kid work harder if their results are not good enough to meet the school standards.

Dear Virgokaren,

My eldest son studied Year 7 at KGV under ESF last year. He had a friend transferred to DBS but back to KGV a year later because he cannot adopt the school environment as all the students are communicating in Chinese outside the classroom.  I heard that the school request the representatives of school who are joining open competition have to miss the school lesson to have more training instead. The school fee also quite high after changing into DDS school.

I think most Chinese will speak Cantonese after class at
local schools.

Does your son speak Cantonese at home?

As WYmom said YMCA Christian College at Tung Chung
also has 30% foreign students and teachers. It might suit your son.
