For girls, if U are pretty confident to get place of Marymount which is , band-1 , free of charge and also has very nice campus at mid-level then Marymount will be my choice.

For SSCPS, if you register, you need to give up lucky draw. SSCPS is a band 1 school, but now students can go SSC without any draw. SSC changes to a DSS.

Dear Jack0128, how to use this school as a lucky draw.  If I register SSCPS, I have to give up lucky draw anyway.  

Is this school a band 1 school?

Pls advice.  Anyone same as me? Need to decide on next Mon.

Both are good schools with good facilities, but the teaching approaches are slightly different.  Other than location and fee, it comes down to whether your child is active and willing to pick up one musical instrument (required by SSCPS).

Very simple.

SSCPS - English & PTH school is much better,$5,500.

True Light - $2,800. Chinese school, but use PTH to teach chinese. The rest of the subject is Cantonese.
People use this school as a back up for lucky draw only. 6 years later need to choose/draw again for the secondary school.  The English level same as the normal school.
My friend's son is studying there, reasonable homework but a lot of dictation and test. Just finish exam this week, next week has a Quiz la.
About 20+ children in a class, 7 boys.

I think depend on where you live. First must select the one that closer to you. (except you willing to move.)

Other than the concern of cost and location, I think SSCPS is better  and more free for kids (though the second point may or may not appeal to parents).
