Agreed with your points. However, we do not really know each school's case, that's why I would not make a statement that all these DSS are breaking the rules.
I may have a different viewpoint on educators as yours. Yes, our society expect principals, teachers, and educators to have a higher moral standard. Yet, we never have and will not be able to have a test to test these educators' moral standard. Therefore, I'd rather believe in a good control system.

I don't think that all DSS are badly managed. Some may be just ignorant in the accounting records, and some are having bad management. That's why EDB has the responsibility to give detailed guidance and take tight control on the financial issue of DSS. Actually I think its not fair to disclose all the names to the public if EDB never has a detailed rules for DSS to follow, nor they never give any warnings to the DSS for their bad practices.
No doubt EDB has failed to peform her duties to monitor those schools. Yet its not quite right for the schools to take advantage of EDB's ignorance and failure. Nobody will do cirmes simply because there is no police around, right? Schools are educational institution and must have very high moral standard and self discipline.
I will hesitate to put my kids in a school which will break the rules when EDB is not watching her.

If 99% of the DSS schools have problems, the first questions I'd like to ask will be "What EDB has done in the past 10 years to manage the DSS schools?"

I recall years ago I attended a ICAC talks regarding employee corruption. It's not the employees' fault only, employer should clearly communicate to the empolyees that certain behaviour is not allowed. E.g. if you allow a staff to get money from the accounts without proper approval, its the company's fault. Because you are tempting people to break the rules. Educators are not saints, what EDB has done to manage them?

Actually famous schools got lots of money donated by parents and alumni, they in fact can change into private schools rather than receiving subsidies from govt.
Yes or no. Parents will complain famous schools only accept students who can afford expensive school fee.
