Well, my friend told me quite a lot of homework not very difficult but the point is if you score under 90 marks in the test or exam then you are one of the last in the class. Most of the people can get 95 or above.

Wrong, we are just regular middle-class family and many of the classmates are of similar family background.
咁亦真係幾多富貴人家......我果時幫我老闆個仔攪生日party, 係會續個問邊個係xx club member方便 ...
It's not surprised to see that there are some students with ordinary family background (ie no connection, middle class, without prestigious social status, nor from a family of listed companies , nor from a family of long line prestigious occupations .....). The principal emphasizes to the parents that they have students who have successfully applied for subsidy. So if they don't accept students from this sector, how could they claim they are a fair and impartial. So tactically, there must be some students with very ordinary background, and in fact there are many smart children out there. But this is a minority in the school.
I knew a couple of families whose children got accepted are having prestigious background or they know ppl sit in the committee. Are their children really smart....sorry only the Principal knows. Don't you observe children of HK gov't secretary always been accepted. And the rest indeed are mainly pretty rich.
My cousins have been studying there since primary school...and I have heard stories about those rich children......
So accordingly, the school want the parent can pay much time with the children's work and homework in school and at the same time to be rich or at least middle-clas. So does it mean that either the father or mother (one should be high salary professional while the other is full-time dad or mum). Otherwise, i don't know how can the parent be so dedicated to the school.
Besides, anyone knows the drop-out rate from school from P1-P6, high or low. And what sort of school to go if drop-out. Thx
Smart and bright students compared of academic results and extra-curicular activities results; others compared family background, i-Phone etc, if not what can they say in school!!!!!! But they are still friends. I just share my sons views in a top notch DSS boys school.
BTW, SPCC is the school provided a lot of scholarships and subsidies for kids come from low-income families, that why their school fee is most expensive one among all DSS.
But as somebody says, even 90 marks need to see parents. Then i want to know how parents and children deal in this enviroment. Is it really 7x24 pressure among students and parents not matter this is coming from the school or not.
So, what sort of student is suitable in this school? I am confused here whether high acadmeic standard only or taking more part in extra-curriculum activites.
