Any comments for this school ? Is it hard to get in ? I'm not so familiar with IS, but start to think of it because my son is very active and I'm feeling the pressure for doing homework and revision is getting to harm our relationship. Almost all my friends think he would be better off in IS than local school (demanding one), although local school was our original plan. He will go to P1 in coming Sep, my plan is to let him (or me) try in local school first, and if things not going in right track, we need to make the decision to switch in P2 or P3.

Very long waiting list in IS route now, most primary space will be occupied by kids come up from its IS kindergartens or other IS kids.

It is not impossible but you need to prepare for very long waiting list especially in those polular IS and you need to prepare your boy's English to reach very fluent or naive level for the interviews.

For Cdnis, unless you have some sorts of priority like passport holders, corporate debentures, sibling, the chance is low as too many applicants. You still in the the waitlist even you pass the interview.

CNDIS而家好難入，理論上加拿大passport holder係有優先，不過太多加藉人士在香港，所以無也用。有同校sibling會有優先，但都不是保證有位。

local system的催谷確實不是每個小朋友都適合，建議你多找幾間IS研究吓，不要只叮一間，萬一孩子有需要都可以馬上行動。

CDNIS focuses on helping students to develop their own thoughts and ideas.  It's very different from Asian teaching (e.g. Singapore International School) of which CDNIS focuses less on individual homework/ assignments but more on  and group project & presentation.  I worked with two CDNIS students in their last IB diploma years (Grades 11-12) and their training is almost like a mini business degree at university level.  You may PM me if you have other questions.

hofl,
Thanks for your reply. So in your opinion, are the students there have good learning attitude and motivation ? This is what I think IS should be. Am I right ?

This is a very good school with nice campus. However, its very difficult to get in. unless you are very rich. ie. corp debenture + donation. Otherwise, very low chance..............

回復 chongnicole 的帖子

Hi Chongnicole

My daughter is currently attending P2 in a local girl's school and would like to switch her to an International School from P3.... if CIS has such a long waiting list even we are Canadian passport holder.  Do you have any good recommendation on HK side?  How about ESF Bradbury, Kiangsu-Chekiang or FIS?

Many thanks

CIS一般指漢基，比加拿大國際(CNDIS)更難入和貴族化。

加拿大國際係越來越難入，但有個好處是報得名就一定有得in，同埋你小朋友轉P3，要考筆試，吳同話pre reception只考口試，有實力的小朋友會表現到優勢。如果你中意，難入都照報啦，今年投行裁員潮，d外國家庭relocate，可能會多番d位。

ESF Bradury我不太認識，但ESF學校（除了RC）有Category one 、two之分，歧視了會說廣東話的小朋友，入讀機會較低。加上，英基的學校不夠重視中文，這是較大缺憾。同樣有cultural diversity和開放快樂的校園生活，相對來說，英基的吸引力就較低。當然，如果你不在意中文就另作別論。

蘇浙國際部 - 有2、3個舊同事/普通朋友的小朋友讀過，評語都幾好，它有點介乎local school和國際學校之間。英文程度不是加拿大國際、英基等國際學校的水平，但中文就應該是在國際學校的前列。

法國國際 - 都有不重視中文的問題，同埋學術水平不算高。有朋友報了名，在排隊，未有interview機會。

你還可以考慮新加坡國際、弘立和滬江維多利亞。

其實好視乎你為什麼要幫小朋友轉校，是因為local school功課壓力太大、影響了親子關係？還是為去外國讀書作準備？是好希望馬上轉？定係要考到好先轉？

Hyahome,

It depends on both school and student.  The school, by all means, has every good intention to help the students to develop their skills and values.  However, students need to put in the time and effort to learn.  The two girls I worked with have very good attitude, are very positive trying out new things and are not afraid to take challenges.  They received scholarship and was accepted to Ivy League school in North America.
