Re: IB課程將會成為教學趨勢,現階段有何意見

IB is internationally recognised, students have more choices in applying Universities.  But IB requires high English standard to study, so usually mostly used by international schools.  Teachers need to be very qualified as well.

Logos has also claimed that they will use IB long time ago, but don't know when.  HKUGA and DBS have also said that they will use IB Diploma program.  For CKY, don't even know when they will have their secondary school, not to say if there will be IB.

Re: IB課程將會成為教學趨勢,現階段有何意見

IB 最可貴之處(對我而言), 是有一系列國際承認的curriculum外, 亦非常重視當地文化, 我也很喜歡.  至於本地大學現時不足20%, 不代表以後也是.  隨著越多學校落實採用 IB課程 (Diploma), 大學收生率或也再提高.  我也見過國際學校修IB的學生考上HKU.  最重要還是有好的IB成績, 否則拿什麼cert. 也升不上大學.

Have they got secondary students now?  I guess it depends on when they have their first batch of secondary students lah!  At present, I don't think they would invest so much resources to have this lor!      

If you know Mr Ip (CKY's IB consultant), they are really doing something lah!

IB is not easy to implement, it takes a few years to obtain authorization.  Besides, most schools only offer IB diploma, which is for F.6 and 7.  So take it or not can be decided after F.3 or 4 depending on the student's academic results and standard.  It may be a factor for selecting secondary schools, but not so much for primary.

Re: IB課程將會成為教學趨勢,現階段有何意見

Almost all schools now offering IB Diploma and those considering to offer IBD are through-train schools. Furthermore, there will be no HKCEE. Therefore, if you want your kids to study IBD, it's better to seek for a school whose secondary will offer or are offering IBD.

Hi cow,

This was told by my friend who attended the school's interview lately.  When they talked about the school's IBD course, the principal said they would not invest so much resources to have an authorised program until they see the academic results of its secondary graduates.  The reason was its high maintenance fee each year!  No IB standard guaranteed was my friend's worry lah .....      But let's keep it open lah ....  That's why I said MIGHT BE loh!

IB課程將會成為教學趨勢


我唔覺IB課程將會成為教學趨勢,各國之課程,都是根据各國實際情况定出。最重要的是,各項考試費用、課程注冊收入甚豐,英國、美國不易放棄他們現時所得之利益而轉IB的。IB課程或成為亚洲,特别是東南亞、香港一些國際校之趨勢,但不會是各國的教學趨勢。

其實,學其神髓,用"unauthorised system"即可,又何比錢人使呢?

Re: IB課程將會成為教學趨勢,現階段有何意見

HuiTung,
Thanks for your explanation.

All schools offering IB must be authorized or pre-authorized (some says orally authorized but waiting for format authorization) by IBO, and all the teachers have to be trained to teach IB. Otherwise, it is not an IB course. All IB courses are standard guaranteed.

Up to now, I do have a bit worry whether Logos will try its best to offer IBD for its current primary students in time. We as parents will try our best to push the school to do so.

I concern more about the student's performance for an IB graduate with a HKAL graduate if they study in the same HK uni.

cow,

Don't worry.  Logos will not offer IBD to its primary students ...     It's the PYP that IBO provides for primary students  ....  Not to mention primary lah, unless you are willing to pay more school fee loh!

Re: IB課程將會成為教學趨勢,現階段有何意見

Dear parent,

Of course offering IB is expensive in a sense of hiring up trained teacher, but it can assure you the teachers know what's the direction of teaching and not as our Education dept. said just train the teachers for tens of hours then they will know how to teach "common sense". Also, I am not worry about the standard of graduate under the IB scope since most of the current student I met are lacking of the necessary common knowledge even for those 'so call best (in view of their academic standard)'. IB may not be the only or best sol. but it can at least provide the necessary learning environment for my kids.
For those school just claim to implement IB but through the discussion with their teacher and observation (such as now they already offer secondary school but still not yet apply for the IB and continue to say considering), you will know which school actually will go for it. Of course I don't mean that those schools are no good but personally I hate this kind of marketing method (just like cheating but they are educating the kids).

Thanks,

唔駛驚入唔到HK D大學。現在出生人口在5萬下,大學現在學士學位大約二萬幾。十年後相信學位有三至四萬。撇除幾千個出國讀U, 呢三幾年出世都人人有書讀, 就算Band 3 生都大部分可以入到本地大學,更何況水準規格更高的IB DP畢業生。

坦白說,入IB學校最終目標當然想入英美名牌大學。首富中東石油王子可以捐錢搭夠, 小市民只好把孩子送入IB學校,貪佢一個試就得,吾使考HKALE, GCE AL, SAT, GRE, TOEFL咁多個試。

今朝Metro講中國打算明年保送7千精英出國讀書。唉其實孩子將來要競爭入英美大學的是這些千中萬中選一的國內精英。國內每年高考生接近千萬人,挑選出來的可想而知。

要知道IQ135以上的佔平均人口2-4%,國內精英是每年考生的0.1%,屬極度資優。

香港的孩子現在怎能不打好基礎,而且要放眼世界。

英基籌辦的全港首間私立獨立學校啟新書院
「一條龍」私校IB課吸學生

英基新校聘IB專家任校長 首重師資培訓 2005年11月8日

【明報專訊】由英基學校協會轄下教育服務公司籌辦的全港首間私立獨立學校,啟新書院(Renaissance College)將於明年9月開課。配合該校中、小學「國際教育文憑」(IB)課程,英基聘請現職IB亞洲總部的Peter Kenny擔任總校長。這位IB專家表示,亞洲地區中IB在香港發展最迅速,提醒IB成功關鍵在教師配合,未來會集中新校的師資培訓。

IB發展迅速 成功關鍵在教師

於明年9月開課的啟新書院,位於馬鞍山,以本港學生為招徠對象,將加強中文與普通話課程,中、小學「一條龍」採用IB課程。經過公開國際招聘,現於IB新加坡亞洲總部擔任項目統籌的Kenny,將於明年1月到港履新。過去3年在IB總部,他主要負責發展小學課程和師資培訓,曾參與本港中學推行IB的諮詢工作。

曾到文萊任教 被書院特色吸引

據IB總部資料顯示,現時亞太地區共有25所學校,註冊採用「一條龍」IB小學至高中文憑課程,本港名校如拔萃男書院及聖保羅男女中學,亦正研究引入IB高中文憑課程。

Kenny表示,IB課程在亞洲發展迅速,尤以香港和新加坡為甚,但他提醒,IB能否成功推行,首重教師質素﹕「教師需要對一切保持好奇,願意主動改進自己,接收各種資訊……學校要有能力吸引這些人才。」

今年44歲、生於澳洲的Kenny由1988年起擔任教師,並於1998年到文萊任教音樂,展開他的海外教學生涯。在英基協會的減薪風潮中來港履新,Kenny表示是受啟新書院的特色,以及香港作為教育樞紐基地所吸引,薪酬只屬其中一項考慮。

5年合約 首要目標提升教學質素

未來5年合約期間,他首要工作是透過師資培訓,提升教與學質素,並會加強學校的課程發展。啟新書院小一名額150個,中一名額180個,但中一級會取錄英基鳳凰國際學校的學生,尚餘名額供外界申請。英基教育總主任甘榮恩表示,會要求入讀學生符合一定英文水平,小一入學面試以活動為主,中學則會設筆試。

啟新書院小學每年學費62,500元,中學每年86,000元,均高於現時英基轄下受政府資助的學校。Kenny表示,學校將撥出10%學費收入作獎學金,評估學生表現和經濟背景後,頒發給有需要學生。

啟新書院新校長Peter Kenny曾擔任音樂教師,是小號的高手。他笑言,執掌新校的各種挑戰中,首要任務包括成立音樂團。(李曉雯攝)

英 基 串 龍 私 校 IB 課 吸 學 生

最好不要等到中學才選擇入讀IB school, 要在小一便作出決定,因為會容易些。這些非IS的學校全是一條龍學校, 除了李寶椿應該很少公開招生。插班位不多而且對Communications in English要求甚高,有朋友由英小教會名校插班入讀也追得很辛苦。這些學校包括DBS,DGS都不再參加中一派位, 插班入讀只能靠實力了。競爭比中一自行收生只有更激烈。

現在Logos和培僑的中學部學生都是讀HKCEE syllabus, 不是讀IB syllabus。Logos第一班考IBD的應是現在的DS1生,即小四生。四五年後到他們開始IB syllabus時,現在中學部老師便要再培訓或換血。培僑一樣。現在的中學部只是過渡期為免浪費已分配了的校舍而辦。

Re: IB課程將會成為教學趨勢,現階段有何意見

EdT, thanks for your advice.  For me, I won't select schools because of IB.  IB is just one of the choice. If I really want it, I would prefer schools which have good experience in it, such as HKIS or 李寶椿 and also prepare the kids well enough to study it.
