德望 VS 聖心

如不計住址(因會搬家就小朋友), 你地會點比較同選擇? 是否兩間都不能算是龍校?
Thanks!

Hi andrewchiu,

Thanks for bringing up a question that would enlighten many parents while they consider the chance of admitting to related primary school.

The interesting fact about SHCK is that the registered number of classroom is 10.  So, the 1 class was not exactly cut but simply they were promoted to the next year and still occupying that additional classroom only.  Similarly, the registered number of classroom of the private primary section is 20.

For the ease of understanding, let me try to illustrate the situation below of the so-called 6-year cycle of SH kinder to private primary school:

2008/09 SHCK K1 8 classes --> promote to 2010/11 K3 --> SHCSPS 2011/12 P1 3 classes
(approx. 220+ girls for 110+ P1 seats) * The most difficult to manage year which happened last year

2009/10 SHCK K1 6 classes --> promote to 2011/12 K3 --> SHCSPS 2012/13 P1 3 classes
(approx. 170 girls for 110+ P1 seats)

2010/11 SHCK K1 6 classes --> promote to 2012/13 K3 --> SHCSPS 2013/14 P1 4 classes
(approx. 170 girls for 150+ P1 seats) * The easiest year to enter private primary school

2011/12 SHCK K1 8 classes --> promote to 2013/14 K3 --> SHCSPS 2014/15 P1 4 classes
(approx. 220+ girls for 150+ P1 seats)

2012/13 SHCK K1 6 classes --> promote to 2014/15 K3 --> SHCSPS 2015/16 P1 3 classes
(approx. 170 girls for 110+ P1 seats)

2013/14 SHCK K1 6 classes --> promote to 2015/16 K3 --> SHCSPS 2016/17 P1 3 classes
(approx. 170 girls for 110+ P1 seats)

then the same 6-year pattern will repeat.  

e.g. the 2011 born girls will need to take note of:
2014/15 SHCK K1 8 classes --> promote to 2016/17 K3 --> SHCSPS 2017/18 P1 3 classes
(approx. 220+ girls for 110+ P1 seats) * The most difficult to manage year which happened last year

The above factual information are available thru www.chsc.hk and the school websites.  There are no secrets but efforts are required to understand them.



Facts to note for the past 3 years was:
(1) Less than half of kindergarten students will choose to eventually return to private primary school;
(2) Approx. half of the gov't aided primary school students are from SHCK (around 70-80).


So to answer your question, it will depends on which year the girl will be entering the kindergarten to know the chance.  Honestly, I have only seen parents give up waiting rather than a kid not being able to offer the seat.

I hope the above information are useful.


Similar situation arise for GH as the first year as their kindergarten re-open, with the great demand of K1 they have opened extra class for K1 while there were (if I remember correctly) 1 less class of K3.  So, the P1 promotion last year was for 150 girls.  For the current year, it is 180 girls and for the current K2 girls, there will be 210 girls.  

GH has a much bigger private primary class structure with 5 classes each and their students per class are relatively higher.  So, for the consideration of seats available, they would have over 200 seats in P1 each year and it would be no difficulty if the preferences are given to all own kindergarten students.  For the year with the 7 classes of K1 which will be promoting to P1 in 2013/14 P1, the difficulty will increase compare to the two previous years.

HI marwai_1030,

Actually last year was the first year that they begin not to offer 100% guarantee to all students due to the larger kindergarten student base so do you know the student who couldn't promote to P1?  Last year, I helped all those parents who come to seek for help and turned out, there were offers to them but some of them have eventually given up the chance as they settle with other school.

As I remember there was once a rumor one student was told she will definitely won't be offered.  Unfortunately with much efforts, we cannot locate that student and help to understand better the case.

For the case of this year, there are still almost half year before school start.  In fact I am very confident everyone who like to be remain here, will be able to done so.  

Don't forget there are two sections of primary school.  Even what you have described is true (though I never heard of it before) for the private section with higher expectation, the gov't aided section will always welcome students from its own kindergarten.

家長能否配合學校要求，都是考慮因素。
試從另一方面看，如果小朋友的能力未能應付該校的要求，就算學校肯給予學位，你和小朋友都感到吃力，因此而破壞親子關係會更甚，小朋友自信心下降而無心向學，結果惡性循環，何必呢?

Thanks!  I am 插班生k2 on coming  sept. thanks your information! 直升小機會大嗎？

過往家長所講也有waitting但最後也收了，實際情況係點我都不敢亂講但機會率比民生高，聖心也有直頭不收，但gh我還未聽到有家長這2屆有不收情況，不過真實情況留待我今年9月後開學本校面試才知道，我有試過問班主任和校長，她們說不用擔心。

每星期三校內有才藝表達，小朋友每人都有機會上台單獨或團體上堂表演給所有小朋友和老師看，學校也有邀請舞蹈表演者，狗醫生等等的來學校與小朋友見面和表演，這也是很難得的，品德上也教得非常好

有phonics ，但具體我不太清楚，今天女兒回來讀了一大段英語，是個故事，中文有句子式的！英文寫a cat a dog a sheep 等。如相對kv那些校就比較淺但啱年齡讀，幼稚園不谷，興趣班有芭蕾舞，英文，普通話，畫班和游泳，游泳就需要自己和小朋友換衫的其他的就老師代勞

Yingcalvin

Can you introduce more the course of k2 ? Everyday have homework? What will teach in English  that you say everyday have eng lesson?

我女讀緊gh k2了，so far很滿意學校各方面，老師細心有愛心，每星期六的興趣班導師是外請，除了普通話是中學部老師外，外請的老師真的非常好，學校安排得十分方便家長，如一次上幾個興趣班不用家長留守，老師會安排換衫和轉班，校長們可以去慢慢嘆早餐傾計，校內好多自己活動，如教動物會帶小動作和小朋友有小組式接觸及了解，又會請拉面師傅表演給小朋友看，等等的環節，每天有英文堂，但朋友女兒在sh只有一星期三堂，學術上如中文就教嘅程度差不多，2間都是好學校，可能要花點時間了解和生活上那樣配合而選取

咁話說呢. 我自己個女今年就讀緊K2.
GH俾我既感覺其實幾滿意.
好多時我都會接到班主任電話來講番我聽小朋友上學點時呀點呀咁.
感覺就是好細心. 好多時一講就半個鐘.
最主要都係囡囡返學返得開心. 好多之前唔係幾好既野都改好左.
反而老師既教學經驗個人就唔太關心. 話之你十個博士學位
小朋友咁細個. 最緊要返學既感覺係開開心心. 你要教佢寫論文?
再者呢度既教師我自己去接過幾次小朋友放學. (慚愧....)
我呢D男人老狗睇得出D老師係發自內心咁關心小朋友既
之前未有小朋友果時陪過朋友去某知名幼稚園接小朋友...
小朋友睇唔出... 大人一睇就見到D老師皮笑肉不笑強顏歡笑. 唉.
總覺得而家太多家長諗得多左野.
小學的事. 暫時總覺得想得太多. 小朋友鐘唔鐘意. 到時先諗.
但如由K3昇上去的話. 朋友仔多應不難習慣吧.
都係果句.  硬係要小朋友嬴在起跑線上.
買多D36奶地溝油俾佢地食好了.
免得未來大個冇抗體考試前食錯野入廠錯過左就無謂啦.

GH的優點, Campus 真係靚D!!!!設施完善,學校的服務亦見細心,而且中學是直資,升中學相對有保障!SH的中學是津貼學校,競爭會十分激烈!

SH的優點,SH 的師生比例為1:9, 優於GH的1:11. 而且SH的老師有55%有超過7年以上的教學經驗,而GH的老師只有41%有超過7年以上的教學經驗. 另外, SH有學卷而GH沒有學卷!

其實GH 和 SH 各有優點,真的很難決擇!

caca316

GH Campus 真係靚D!!!!.......不過其他方面大家是差不多的, 不如比較下兩邊老師的學歷,師資,問下讀緊既人,對老師的comment, 等等.......另外,一家九龍,一家港島,我唸如比較住的地方,大家都應該有答案吧!!!!

I also dont know how to choose between SH and GH. Since we live in Kowloon side and won't consider move to HK, I think we will choose GH.
