自從新校長任竹嬌上任後，與舊梁校長有極大分別。全校開始慢慢地轉用傳統填鴨式教育。開始用分數評論學生的成績，漸漸地脫離最初的教學理念和基石。小朋友在適應上由開心慢慢地轉為沈悶。有意思由活動教學走向傳統教學。今年又不知有多少老師流失啊！

I think the topic is not about whether activity or traditional approach is good or bad, but the key point is:

Originally 港大同學會小學 claims to use activity approach, happy learning etc., and now as 樓主 said, it is changing into traditional teaching approach, which is very different from the original plan.  When parents send the kids into a school, they choose school based on the 理念 told by it, and expect implementation based on the same approach.  If it changes, it is not doing what it has said.  

So say if the school of Tommy's kid is going to change into traditional approach next year, will you still feel nothing about it?

This is the major risk of choosing new DSS or private schools.  I believe if we prefer traditional teaching approach, there are hundreds govt schools for selection and we can save a lot of school fees.

I am not parent of this school, but fully understand the concern raised.

Activity approach does not mean parents no need to follow up anything, in fact parents need to involve more, say reading with the kids, doing projects, going to field trips, etc.  It also does not mean that these kids cannot go into Universities, there are so many people in other countries learn under activity approach and can go into very top universities.

The key thing is if you can choose a good school which can really deliver what it claims.  As most DSS using activity approach in HK are very new, no one can say if those schools are good or not.

In fact it is difficult to implement new concepts in HK as HK people are always expecting good academic results in a very short time (as usual - 急功近利).  If the new schools need to show high standard/good academic results to prove to local parents in only 2 to 3 years and attract more customers in future, it may be inevitable for them to switch back to traditional approach, which push students to perform better in exams by simply memorizing what they learn.

I believe parents of this school will be in a better position to tell more.
