I appreciate your fair comment. I know you are one of the fathers/mothers of SPCC's students after I read through a SPCC thread in another section. However, I believe you are not the kind of people as what I have described before.

Your ideas are also my ideas.

Our discussion should be based on facts and figures and should not have any harsh comment on any school.

Thank you for your sharing of the quote.I have no kids to study in SPCC, QC, DGS, DBS or BPS yet I respect each of them as they are famous and respectable schools in Hong Kong and produced tons of leaders in different fields. I have strong interest in comparing different schools and education system in Hong Kong. That is why I want explore from different objective standards to see why SPCC is the cream of the cream.

ABC-DAD

Since Spcc or other DSS'S didn't hurt anyone,nor did thier parents, teachers and students, my humble idea is :
Their outstanding results now n ever didn't deserve the  harsh comments here.
Take note if there is any positive comment for our failure.
Please excuse my poor expression.
With Google Search, you may find a better Look of IT.
Pls be mercy to my English.
May I salute to the brillant results of schools of all kinds of disciplines.

Yes, SPCC has been the cream of the cream....but cream of the crop always come from other schools like QC, SMCC, 聖言，培正 this year!

Please excuse my ignorance of your quote. Could you advise what you are going to say?

匹夫无罪，怀璧其罪
此成语出自《春秋左传-桓公十年》。原指财能致祸，后也比喻有才能而遭受忌妒和迫害。
《春秋左传-桓公十年》：“初，虞叔有玉，虞公求旃。弗献。既而悔之，曰：‘周谚有之：匹夫无罪，怀璧其罪。吾焉用此，其以贾害也？’乃献之。又求其宝剑。叔曰：‘是无厌也。无厌，将及我。’遂伐虞公。故虞公出奔共池。”

The cream of something means "the best of a particular group of things or people".

Cream of the cream means "the very best"
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/creme+de+la+creme

To me, cream of the cream means "the best of the best".  

For your reference only as I don't really know the answer

Unless I am wrong in understanding "cream of cream" which means the "best".Please correct me if I am wrong in my understanding.

QC and BPS are government schools. Although they are feeder schools for some government primary schools, the students entering into these 2 schools are also the best cohort of the same age group.

I don't agree that DGS and DBS are not cream of the cream too.    QC and BPS both have 70% uncontrollable student inputs.

Yes, it has the biggest advantage. I think QC, BPS, DGS, DBS,, to name a few would have such biggest advantage. Why SPCC is the cream of the cream but not QC, BPS, DGS, DBS etc?

It does not guarantee, but it has the biggest advantage.   It's much much easier to produce excellent products when the raw materials are of top grades.

I agree with 88muimui entirely.  The result of a school has a lot to do with its students' background.  To me, the achievement of a school such as 鮮魚行學校 is in no way less than those of any of the top local or IS schools in HK.

http://hk.news.yahoo.com/%E7%AA% ... 0%A1-224826799.html

Sometimes I wonder how well the top schools will fare if they exchange all their students with those of say 鮮魚行學校 whose students are handicapped by factors such as 連課外活動都負擔不起，還要面對家庭問題........

We need not be unduly proud of producing "cream of the cream" students.  Getting cream out of the cream is comparatively easy.  It's far more difficult to produce cream out of nothing.

Even if SPCC has the cream of cream students, does it guarantee that it is a cream of cream of Hong Kong education?

If you really know, I am happy to take this weekend to search for the outstanding history of SPCC.  It is a big project.  Please kindly allow me a few days.

What makes SPCC unique amongst schools in Hong Kong according to the ex-principal of the elite band-1 school?

Shootastar

回復 peremum 的帖子

peremum

Would you please let us know why SPCC is the cream of cream of Hong Kong education in terms of:

(a) public examination results - HKCUU, HKDSE or HKAL;

(b) the percentage of the graduation class admitted to the 8 local subsidised universities;

(c) annual music achievement amongst secondary schools in Hong Kong;

(d) annual sports achievement amongst secondary schools in Hong Kong; or

(e) any yardsticks you think suitable for comparison purposes.

Thank you.

Your inability to distinguish between the different St. Paul's just show your ignorance.  SPCC has been the cream of cream of HK education for more than 60 years.  I personally heard a ex-Principal of a elite Band 1 Secondary school (she has been in education since 1960s) said that SPCC is considered among educators to be unique in her own class above all other schools.
