I pay deep salute to those DSS schools that provide quality education to children, especially those newly founded ones. My daughter benefitted from it very much. For some regional subsidized schools, they provide quality education to their pupils. However, they do not have enough able pupils to get outstandling results in the public competitions. It is because around half of their pupils are allocated by the government. They may even have special education needs.e.g. Autism, dylexia.Family and financial problems are also serious. However, the teachers are skilful to tackle these problems very well. Also, for the first round of some schools, it is no different to central allocation because they have to enrol whoever he/she is. They do not have enough intake. Owing to demographic reasons, they may be suffering from stringent classes. They have no source to attract pupils from other districts either. One school in Tseung Kwan O took up the solemn duty by enrolling these pupils. However, other parents did not accept this very much. Finally the school wound up. Next school year, as reported by the Government Department, 100 classes of P 1 wil be cut because of the lagacy of SARS. In conclusion, many schools provide quality education but they may have inadequate pupils for P.1. Some schools have the situation on the other way round.
I believe the most preferred schools you are talking about are SPCC, DBSPD, and DGJS (isn't it a private school? still, I can't think of a DS girls school that is comparable to these 2.). Are you saying that apart from these 3 schools, all other DSSs are just mediocre? By that you mean a lot of parental tutorial is required for those studying at these mediocre DSSs while those top 3 can train the students well without requiring much assistance from the parents? Well, based on hearsay, DBSPD requires the full time moms to provide a lot of assistance to their kid.
1.agree that parantal guidance are always needed, especially on reading, what to read, how to read, when to read,
2. are our teachers too spoiled that they believe parents should take up the teaching, not teachers?
3. there are teachers in hk who said this: ( but they are not hk teachers but IS teachers): 别給孩子答案，如果他不明白，請孩子來找我們，我們會教他.
4. if an average child's abilility is 70% out of 100% and parents want 95%, parents would have to do the teaching.

My daughter has just been promoted to S1. I am writing this message to share my feelings after my daughter has completed her primary school life in a DSS school this year.
