SFA Acceptance Letter

Piaget

Heard that some people have got the offer letter already. Much earlier than the expected date!

In fact I was quite enjoy being interviewed by the students. Since I was in the first session so when the 2 students come to do an interview with me, they felt a bit nervous at the very beginning and their teacher then come to them to calm them down and to give them support. After that they did pretty well during the entire interview, I also did ask them questions in English after the interview like how do you think about the school? are there many homeworks, exams, etc?  They can answer all the questions in English very well and I am pretty impressed and of course this cannot be fake...

當天面試時, 學校有貼出通告給家長: 面試過程太約45分鐘至1小時.

大家其實可以出外再回來. 點解大家要係操場等呢 ? 跟住仲係到投訴 ? 如果你們不是因為此間學校的口碑, 相信大家都不會到深水涉區取申請書.

We went shopping at 高登商場. Lucky that we haven't tried the toilet! But that's a good school afterall.

Would appreciate if anyone who manage to gain a place there, just give some constructive advice to the teacher / principal regarding the interview arrangement pls. I will definitely do.

smartmatt

Arrangement wise, its not very different other schools, long wait for app form, long wait for submission, long wait for interview and comparatively very short interview session.  And, long wait for the result!

At least you had the choice of going shopping, drinking tea, chatting with other parents, etc.  In some schools you have sit thru presentation, student performances, etc.

actually, I feel it is very "fake", force some outstanding students under the hot sun for a whole day in order to please the parents.

Yeah, I was told the students spoke very well, so my wife asked whether they take external supplement classes...you can guess the answer...

如果大家由登記果一刻已經唔喜歡此學校, 為何仲要去interview呢 ?

(不喜勿插, 有感而發)

大家有冇想過老師都好辛苦幫大家interview, 仲要係咁多人當中選出來.

Super agree!  I think this school is sooooo ... inconsiderate!

Georgette

Through this interview, this school gave me the following impression:

inconsiderate; impatience; very traditional; cold-hearted;

如果冇申請, 點多方面了解多一些, 點知buy or not buy呢? 何況我們只於Interview arrangement比些意見, 不是多些意見,討論,才有機會進步嗎? 我們不是直接批評其教育質素呢。如果他們加以改善, 這學校不是更完美嗎???

Agreed. You buy then you apply, if not, actually no need to discuss...

Agree!!!
The interview system is very old style. I am very unlike their arrangement especially the submittion date. Please change la!!!

You know that the school is nearby a market. They let parents go outside to take a walk when their children in room. I saw some parents went to "shopping". One of them bought a home appliance. One of them bought some towel.

你BUY 間學校就讀, 唔BUY就放棄. 當年雖然IN 咗好多間, 但目標只是SFA. 所以當OK咗, 我就放棄所有學校包括政府LUCKY DRAW.

我地3年前去INTERVIEW時, 佢地都係用同一套方法
(排隊交表,
排隊CHECK DOC, 排隊INTERVIEW, 企操場一個鐘等接仔, 同學SHOW OFF 學校既LANGUAGE). 但我依然比仔仔入讀, 因為我BUY 間學校.

2年後, 我依然會講, 我冇後悔.

我不是要HARDSELL間學校, 但這是個人意見.

你地自己衡量吓啦.

I will definately hesitate to send my son to this school if he's being accepted.

I remembered when I submit my application after waiting for a long time, I finally sat down in front of the teacher. I took out my plastic folder & I started to take out the application form & some supporting documents from it. I only took less than 3 seconds to do so. The teacher had no patience at all & she grabbed & pulled my folder out of my hand, with a black face & she said"俾我啦!" in a very annoying voice.

I was so shocked but I did not let go. I pulled it back & also gave her a black face, & then I said "I have some personal docs inside that are not supposed to give to u!"

After I sorted out the docs quickly, only within 2 secs, then I gave it to her, she stared at me with a very black face.

What kind of teacher is this? I swear to god I only wasted her less than 8 secs in total, do I deserve all these black face & staring & pulling things out of my hand?

我都有同感．那天的安排有些少令人不安．流動廁所是最令人氣憤的．有朋友話，當天有老師在高空觀看各家長動態，所以安排所有家長在操場等．老師們的態度比較冷酷．
這次interview後，如果有幸收到confirm信，都要重新想想讀唔讀！？
