What I believe is only current/past students' parents of the school really know what is happening in the shcool and how good/bad the school is.
Every school always has something to improve....that is reality! Even a very famous school, students recently said to newspaper their school did a wrong thing in donation treatment.
And, I believe parents should spend energy to comment on their own kids' school for problem/improvement, not other schools because (1) you are not the user, so you dont have enough insider information. (2) If you like criticising others, your kid will like criticising others too after they grow up.
"Try to learn good things of others, insteading of criticising weakness of others". Our lives will be happier!
There is no point to start an argument here. And it's too early and unfair to make a malicious judgment on the integrity of our principal. I believe truth will come to surface soon once full explanation from our school is sent to authorities concerned to clarify all unnecessary doubts arising from the accusation.
I feel sorry for Y2KChild who claimed to have encountered some unpleasant experience in our school. However, as a regular volunteer at school, I have never come across those people yelling at me or being rude to me. That's quite strange!!

I don't want to dispute with anyone here or defend for anyone, either. Currently, the issues on Logos are still under consideration by D of Audit and Secy for Education. I am afraid no one including myself is in a proper position to be the good judges. I trust the Government will seriously make appropriate decisions to work for the best interest of those students in the DSS schools involved. So continued accusation on a particular person would not make things better!
Agree. I believe this public issue will go on for months. Legco will force EMB to disclose all the school's names, althought EMB is trying to avoid that. AD's original intention is to push EMB to improve monitoring and set up better guideline (no clear guideline at the moment) how DSS can use their fund as compared to Gov't schools (obviously they cannot be the same as Gov't introduced DSS some years ago was to reduce Govt's burden in education and allow DSS having FLEXIBLITY in teaching and using fund (esp. own fund, not the Gov't subsidy part).
And, I really admire what Logos' Parent Association said they dont support other DSS names to be disclosed as it really hurt the innocent unless AD can show something DSS is breaching the CURRENT EMD's regulation/guideline. (Logos Parent Association is in a high ethical standard)
Just remind myself a poupular quote in HK recently "真的假不了"

EDB and AD only hand picked 4 DSS schools for detail audit, if the hearsays in the news are correct:
Logos - Donation, HR procedure, properties....
LPCUWC - International school became DSS and receive government fundings
HSCC - HK$220M surplus or extra funding from HS
and one more DSS.
Even disclose some more names, they are not going through detail audit and 19 DSS schools even no official agreements with EDB, so AD can't audit them...... That's ridiculous......
EDB prefers to quiet down the issues as most mismanagement and or wrong doings of DSS schools are due to their careless or under-par management.
Money was donated by parents and Parents' Association was formed by parents and its committe was voted by parents.
What wrong with that if Parents' Assocation decided not to use the remaining donation yet after discussing in PA's meeting with minutes recorded?
And most importantly the money is still in the financial accounts of PA. PA is a limited company and it has been audited by independant audit firm every year according to HK Company Law and HK accounting standards.
