Dear all,
Hi all, I saw some of the threads discussed here talking about the differences between international schools and typical local school (i.e. better English in IS, duck feed teaching approach in local schools etc). I wish to draw a more 'apple to apple' comparison here - IS vs local direct subsidies schools, as they are closer in terms of school fee, and teaching approach (I suppose most directly subsidies schools nowadays no longer use the very 'duck feed' teaching approach and they also try to provide more resources and exposure to students). How would you compare these two streams? Ideally speaking, if your kid is accepted by all the above schools, which one would you choose?
The reason why I'm asking is, my son got accepted by a popular local kindergarten and he will be in K1 in Sept. I am still considering which stream to put him to for primary. Some people told me to try local first, coz if you are not happy with local, you can always switch to international, but definitely not vise versa. How true is that? I heard that ESF schools are also highly competitive. How high a chance can one get into ESF primary if he studies in local kindy? Can anyone shed some light?
Thanks so much! |
