St. Francis 英小, Good Hope or St. Paul Convent

We also reluctant to give-up SFA.

Totally Agreed!

My girl studied at SFA last two years.  This year, she got admitted to another convent school.  We also reluctant to give-up SFA.  It is truely a very top and good school.  Trust me, if you are putting your kids there, you gotto trust them as they have so many years of experience being the top academic school.  Good luck!

Among SFA, GH, St Paul's Convent and DPS, I would only weigh between GH and St. Paul Convent, as they are through-train schools.


I agree all 4 are very good and top primary schools. No doubt and no bias.


However, if it is not through-train, you need to spend a lot of time to prepare for secondary school admission. You need to pay effort on 'winning' certificates and building up a 'heart-breaking' portfolio, which is an advantage for those famous secondary schools.


For GH and St. Paul's Convent, you have more flexibility to plan for/train up your kid according to her ability and performance. For example, if you find your kid to be weak on academics, you could be more focused on academics. At least, for GH and St. Paul's Convent, you don't need to submit a portfolio to your own school. You also don't need to push your kids and yourselves too hard to balance all aspects to be shown in your portfolio.


Between GH and St. Paul's Convent, I would say they are both equally good. You may consider where you live to save time on travelling.


Hope the above helps.

小時候，活潑開心有自信。轉學校後，因為學校要求較高，老師厳厲，自信心下降了。我覺得這是考小學很重要的條件。

Forgot to say, my girl is 2011 P1.
已抽了,抽不到。現在system很不公平, 不是pure lucky draw. 又世襲, 又分區。已試叩門, no luck。
上面3間, 一間收咗, 一間Friday 2nd in, 一間still waiting.
所以依家想下决定 ...

2nd in成點呀？Good luck!

德望咁好, 点解要放棄呀? 間學校都谷架, 但亦着重小朋友多看書. 上到中學有精英班, 上年6科14分有成7x%, 係Band1頭的中學。
反而SFA的升中成績就普普通通, 之前都有家長在這裏問"不明SFA咁谷但升中成績都是一般, 值 ...

DPS有十個位去DBS, 但是没有优势去DGS。

easybring

我不知道呈分不呈分. 只知ghs中學是直資, 直資有結果並留位了(比放榜早的), 即時取消派位, 睇你搏唔搏.

GH 不呈分嗎?

HelenHillary: I would consider the environment near the school as well. How would you like your child to spend his/her time in the environment near SFA or DP for the next 6 years?

HelenHillary

認同peterba的话，個人覚得GH初小可能較循序漸進，想插班所以迭了SFA.本來已經立定心意去SFA，但想不到叩门DP收了，突然又十五十六

peterba

不只sfa,自己覺得像九龍塘小學,宣小等私校都是給我們這些"心頭高"而又失意於小一派位的家長們一個進可攻,退可守...去努力裝備子女未來教育前途的地方.
朋友有些入了九龍塘區名校中學的小學部,唔想太辛苦,休悠地keep到前70%的位置成績上到去就算,現在到五六年級又知驚得唔得;也有些去努力(有人叫谷)的,一早到數X,學X補數,學奧數.操水,踢波入校隊.各適其適.
自己認同後者,相信若子女谷到就要谷.
不相信小學在中下游,到中學可以會容易去到前面;咁到升大學時又要去外國尋求出路?近近地去澳洲讀,呢一兩年貴咗幾多大家都知.我係打工仔,寧願谷小學,都唔想比呢"舊"錢.
個仔絶不是自動波的人,猶幸"話"完後可坐定定温書.學校提供了很多增值的校外證書,考試資訊渠道,自由參加,校園生活絶對充實.

同意呀! sfa畢業 目標都係top官津中學, 如果ghs要預入埋中學部(再比多6年學費).  我想像呢...sfa的學習生活會更緊湊.   家長想要咩呢?  各人有各人打算!

點解男生多女生咁多?

hwm399

對, SFA大多入Band1官津中學.
上年46個女生中:
10人入寶血會上智 (B1頭)
6人入DGS
6人入聖母玫瑰 (B1中)
3人入協恩 (B1頭)
3人入St Mary's
3人入Maryknoll Convent

上年115個男生中:
20人入長天 (B1尾)
14人入九华 (B1中)
11人入聖芳濟 (B1尾)
7人入Maryknoll Father
5人入St Joseph
4人入聖保羅
4人入St Paul CoEd
2人入DBS
它們多屬B1官津, 如說, 免了中學6年学費.
可考慮這是否心儀的中學.

在SFA成績好.不難插入好官津.只可能不想離開.

多謝解答,那小兒不用再出去學了.
外間對sfa的傳言確實令我壓力不少,但實在不想錯過這間好學校,希望它跟kv一樣,只是傳言可怕,事實上卻是一間令人不願離去的好學校.

小兒讀了SFA幾年,覺得很開心;對一般水平學生來講,不覺谷得辛苦(在補習社看見很多地區小學谷得仲勁,功課量及課程深度一D都不比SFA小).
中學排位方面,以女生上年度數字來看,一半以上人都考得Band1頭津校,咁成績都是普 ...

請問SFA有phonic學嗎?小兒學了半年,暑假停了,如學校有教那我就不出去學了.
