我知嘅有 YMCA, Anfield, Think, YCIS, York, 金巴倫，方方，民生等。
小朋友的特質普遍是快樂、純真和可愛的。

I was born and raised in HK, adopt traditional HK style education, so I can't compare the UK curriculum between CS and other IS.
The following are only my experience and point of view in CS.

Curriculum:
its suitable to my child, not pushing and the classwork are usually fun as my child told me.
Maths and Chinese compare to Local schools are easier but they do teach the same level curriculum as Hong Kong education department provided.

Teachers:
Most teachers and TA are kind, patient and caring. They teach in the gentle, child-friendly way. Until now, most of the NET are British, they do help my child to develop her spoken English very good.
Luckily we have a super good class teacher this year, he makes my child eager to do better.

Admin management maybe a bit fresh and inefficiently but staffs are friendly and likely to solve problems for parents.

Though our academic maybe not so strong as CKY or TSL, CS's education concept approach to international school, they provide a happy learning environment to our kids.

Don't know what had happened. My replies couldn't be shown. Thanks for your comment. It helps me to understand a lot more. May I also check whether most of the yr 1 kids are k2 or k3 graduates? Any comments from other parents are mostly welcome.

Choosing to go to P1 after K2 or K3 is a good question. The school encourages students to finish K3 before attending P1. My son is studying at YMCA kindergarten - K1. As I know, most of the K2 students will skip K3 (I have asked current K2 parents). In my point of view, not fast = good, i would choose to finish K3.

Yes. You are right. For parents, is better to let the children go to p1 after k3. But for the child, if mostly will leave after k2, the child will feel very loney if they cannot go to p1 together. That is a problem for my child. She is in YMCA k2 now.

The school follows Uk curriculum that children start primary at 5 year-old. I wonder why the school would encourage children starting at 6 year-old.

With more mature cognitive skills in language, thinking and problem-solving, I actually think 5 yr-old is a good starting age in formal school settings. Before that children should enjoy their time in kindergarten, developing important skills other than academics.

Agreed. However, the curriculum is not purely UK and it's blended with local math and chinese curriculum. It may be a bit hard for a 5-years old kid especially if their parents wanna take regular Chinese class

Thx, does the school use materials of local primary one for their year one students in maths and chinese? If so, that might be a little challenging for kids coming from those 'happy kindergartens'

It follows local curriculum and uses local materials but I think the level is a bit easier than the traditional schools. I think it's a plus coz I think it's the optimal level for hk kids and they can really learn something

agree with Jules S and 小書. I think parents should make their own decision. If the kids are from non-YMCA kindergarten, why don't let them finish K3 with others?
For my own kid, he was born in Sept. As of today, he is not confident to speak up in the class and he is not the type with mature cognitive skills in language, thinking and problem-solving. K3 can help him to work on his weak areas and he would become a "middle B" in P1. But one year can make a big difference for his development, i would observe and decide later.

Why the school is so weird to encourage kids to finish k3 before enrolling into its P1, while they set the age limit just like other international school?
It's actual practice against its application guideline will make the kids age range very wide in p1 ie more than 1 year gap. Outgoing kids will always get along easily with friends in class but the shy ones will find difficulties in making good friends, I suppose.

Yes..its weird ...last year..the headmaster said K2 can apply for P1 ...this year at open day..she recommended to finish K3 to go to P1.

I think they changed the admission preference as they noticed that one year younger to take P1 causing both learning and teaching problem in practice.

But strange is that...for 2016 P1.. they offered ymca kindergarten K2 students to P1 but at the same time offered outsiders who doing K3 from traditional kinders after the first batch interview.

In my opinion, it seems that this will create an unfair learning environment in the first primary school year for those who are from ymca K2 kinder.

Firstly, they will be one year younger than outsiders.

Secondly, they will start their P1 without K3 academic background like outsiders.

Hope it won't be a nightmare for those younger boys and girls from ymca.

Hope they won't lose their confidence and passion of learning.

Hope the primary one teachers will be capable to manage and teach younger ones and able to bring them upto an age 6 level as outsiders when they are actually 5 years old.

ymca kinder should consider to suggest all students to complete K3 before going to P1 so as to eliminate such age and background differences.

Please correct me if I had anything wrong above.

其實真係好取決於小朋友自己本身raedy 上year 1 未。我個女K2 完後上, 班裡有一半讀完K3 的. 但我覺得老師做得不錯, 由於小班的關係, 程度參差的老師也可顧及. 我個女讀得好開心, 早上自己起床換衫驚遲到!

YMCA 是一間比較新的學校, 不是一般的私立, 而辦學模式也比較創新, 所以有些方面也在尋求最好的模式, 這個是可包容的.

至於K2 還是k3 上year 1, 有人覺得學校指引confusing, 唔合理, 有人覺得創新有彈性, 這就取決於父母buy 唔buy 這套教學模式及理念。最後都是父母最清楚小朋友喜歡的方法及他們預備好上小學沒有。這真的是一間全日小學來的, 所以會是一個steep learning curve for the children.
