一向我都有留意SM, 每間學校都有好處或壞處, 視乎你 buy邊方面多些, 唔應該係一面倒的, 亦不需要有一個學校代言人係bk, 亦相信每位家長係把事實向大家分享的。 ...

Absolutely agree with you.

bk係言論自由既地方, 如果大家都唔發言, 唔回應, 咁基本上就唔需要bk既存在.

係bk發言既家長都只係同大家分享對學校既所知同感受, 看觀自然亦會自行消化同分析, 唔係人地講咩就全部信哂.  各人觀點唔同, 大家有不同 ...

kls12,

The selection process / criteria of each school is to screen out those students that fit in the school.  A student being rejected by one school does not mean he / she is not as good as others being accepted.  Indeed, I would say he / she does not fit the school.

SMC is a modern school that do not put heavy emphasis on dictation and test.  It has its own assessement program in which the course work of students are also counted.  

To me, the number of dictation, tests and examinations is meaningless.  This cannot be used to qualify the standard of the school.  As parents, we care what our kids have learnt and are they happy in the process.  These cannot be measured by marks.

Teachers of SMC will help those students in need to achieve the required standard (through the enhancement class during lunch), not to let them repeat.  So, this is not a good benchmark.

G-Ma,
讀直資或私校其中要買的,是學生的質數,出名的學校會吸引到好的學生去讀,SMC的英文環境很好,但學生的質數如何?
有沒有默書測驗考試?
有沒有人留班?
成績表是什樣編排? ...

KLS12,

1. 家長肯為小朋友花心思搵學校, INTERVIEW一大輪, 仲要每個月比學費, 就知道大家都係有心培養小朋友, 所以學生質素唔會差, 咁當然當中一定有頑皮D既學生, 但唔會係"壞"果種.  

2. 小一無考試, 但會有默書, 測驗.  小二開始有考試, 亦有默書測驗, 但同其他學校比較, 壓力唔算好大.

3. 有, 小三聽講有1-2個會留班 (實際數字唔清楚)

4. 成績表 -- 小一係評估.  小二開始會有分數, 平均分.  名次係成績表係唔會SHOW出嚟.

大家都係平常心討論, 心平氣和最緊要.

我反而唔明點解要特別開一個新身份發表代言人言論?

我數到果8位net teachers只係小學部, 中學部既仲未計落去, 所以全校應該有1x位 net teachers.

hi morshi-morshi,

如果主任同學校有對你地作過咁既承諾, 咁就真係要向學校反映一下.  我地果年就無咁同我地講過, 所以當我地見到有幾科都係net teachers教就覺得係bonus.

按今年既班級編排睇, 係p.1同p.2有外籍老師做class teacher, 高年班既都係chinese 做class teacher.  不過每班英文同mod lang 都係由net教.

選擇得sm當然我係好認同佢既教學理念, 但都唔係盲目幫佢講說話既, 平心而論以同樣要比2千幾到3千蚊學費既其他私小, 好似民生, 宣小, 九龍塘小學, 我相信佢地既net teachers/外籍學生比例應該唔會有sm咁高.  

有日我個囡同我講佢學識咗"鼻屎"英文點講, 我問佢邊個教你架? 佢話係外籍同學仔 .
所以英語環境真係好重要, 多d鼓勵小朋友同外籍同學溝通, 呢個都係一個互相學習既好機會.

I really think that there are more NETs in SM than other traditional subsidized school.  Don't forget that we only pay less than $3000/month. Actually it is not sufficient to employ large proportion of NET in school. But at least, they can provide an environment to learn and speak English. Students in the international school  
/CKY /victoria/St.Paul pay more than $5000 /month, so the school can employ more NETs. As I know, it is quite difficult to employ NETs in HK.....
I really think that it is "一分錢,一分貨"....

pink-l,

I totally agree with U and our expectation to SM is quite close.

Ms. Lee told us in the interview that there should be one NET/one Chinese for class teacher, and they also increased a higher % of our school fee last year for hiring more NET to expend  more lesson, but I didn't see the ratio of NET is increased for teaching the subject except English/Modern Language.

I love SM and have the same learning theory with all of yours, that's why I sent my kids to there. I also appreciate all the teacher who care our kids so much.  But It's a big difference of living or communication with a native and a Chinese fluent in English.

Monkeydad & G-ma,

I know you love SM very much and same as me, otherwise we will not pay and send our kids to there.
