1. Do the students have English lesson every day?
2. Are there any native speakers (English) teaching / talking to them every day?
3. It seems that the location of the kindergarten is quite difficult to access.  Is it safe if the child takes the school bus to school?  Does the child need to walk downstairs by herself?
Thanks a lot.

1. 4 days a week, 20 mins per English lesson.
2. There are 4 English teachers, but none are Caucasians (I assume that's what parents refer to as Native).
3. Quite safe to walk the staircases actually.  I guess I would have the same concern before school start but as you know how they behave in school, then you wouldn't be worried.

Thanks Ian's answers. May I also ask some questions:

1) Are all the English lessons conducted by native speakers (non-caucasians, white skin foreigner, suppose)? I know in some kingdergartens, some English lessons are conducted by Chinese teachers.

2) Will they teach phonic?

3) Is there any Putonghua lesson in K1? How long each week? And will they teach "Pin Yin"? Is yes, when K1, K2 ot K3?

4) How about the class size? And the number of teachers taking care of one class?

Sorry for so many questions.
And thanks so much!

Yuris

Please find the answers for your questions:
(1) I just notice I have a typo on my last reply.  NONE of the four are Caucasians.  I believe NET teachers are mainly available from kindergartens NOT receiving the vouchers.

(2) Yes, phonics are being taught since K1.

(3) There are PTH classes, but as far as I know they are scheduled for just 1-2 times a week.  They have only two PTH teachers, one for AM classes and one for PM classes.

(4) The class is always full, 30 per class.  There are two teachers at least (to ensure the 1:15 minimum) plus one assistant or other teachers to help in turn.

For parents who are interested on more language training in kindergarten, your primary target should be those who don't accept voucher.  It is because the criteria of accepting the vouchers limit the proportion of language training so it is not up to the kindergartens to have more English and PTH class time.  So, that's why those more expensive ones can have lot more NET teachers.

haha, two of the four are Chinese.  There is one who have been teaching here for long time is Indian.  One more which I can't tell her nationality, but also has a very standard British accent.

1. There are two primary sections, private and gov't aided.  For private, it should be 100% promotion.  For gov't aided section, SHCK students will have highest priority if fail lucky draw.

2. Yes, school bus is only available in HK island.  For outside of HK island, it is available by private nanny bus.

Thanks a lot for Ian's detailed information.

BTW, are you satisfied with the English level of this School? Do you think the level could be higher or lowere or just right?

Since the private section's income are from School fee. Does it mean that they have more resources for teaching and learning when compare with the other section? Do they share the same group of teacher or different?

Thanks sooooo much for your patience for my long questions.

Hi Yuris,

Personally I am more than satisfied with the English training provided by Sacred Heart.  But this is just personal since I emphasized on pure Cantonese training with my elder daughter before she attends SHCK and I can clearly observe the improvement purely contributed by the school.

Of course, I believe many parents would prefer to have more training in English but SHCK school time is already 3.5 hours and to provide such diversity of program, even my daughter will tell me they are sometimes too busy and cannot have time to take a break to play in the playground.  But she still enjoys going to school even if I suggest take a dayoff to Disneyland!  She really loves this school!

Remaining as private section usually means less funds and resources since they don't really charge you a lot of school fees.  A lot of time the resources are subsidized by the school organizer so it is very different with DSS.  However, since they are private, they will have more freedom to decide the structure and contents of the program so it is a matter of whether you believe in their education philosophy.

The teachers will definitely be different since they are two different schools although they both use the same campus.

Ian
