Mamamu1126

請大家俾D意見呢兩間學校，同㨾係一條龍，你地會揀邊間?

no-bully

Of course, RC is better than YC.

咁睇YC waiting list 都好長，到已家都冇聲氣。不過當初報呢間都係當買多個水泡，其實不是我心儀。

ESF 報名係有時間限制,而YC係隨時都報得名,有無位都要睇報名時間. ...

esf 和 ycis 的收生要求不同。

ycis  係排到你，有得 in  就有得讀，好少聽到有人考唔到，尤其係 year one，某程度上算係先到先得。換句話，入唔入到，係睇你 interview  條隊排第幾。如果有 30 個位，你排 40 ，好大可能連 interview 機會都冇。

esf  要求學生有高英語水平，因此 esf  申請者雖然多，但到 interview   時被 reject 的亦多，變相就算排到好後，都未必真係冇機會。如果有 30 個位，你可能排 60  都有機會有得讀，因為前面 59 個，可能多過一半被 reject。

記得online報 YCIS year 1 是二月初，很快YCIS 打電話來說現在沒有位， 要wait list 很長。 你可以考慮 吾 ...

聽過好多都係咁：申請時話冇位，要 wait，但一般等一兩個月就會話比你聽有位。

冇位會call你，有 chance 退返報名費，咁要讚吓耀中先。

記得online報 YCIS year 1 是二月初，很快YCIS 打電話來說現在沒有位， 要wait list 很長。 你可以考慮 吾報 退回 報名費。 我說我想繼續申請，wait 都沒所謂。 不夠一個月，ycis 打來叫我女兒interview。 interview 後不到十天，就收到email話取錄了。

不過去年 YCIS year 1 收的外來生真的不多。 女兒班 23 人， 只有兩個不是底班直升。 ah女真是好彩。

In fact i think all schools are 隨時報得 when your kid meets their age requirement, depending on the availability of a seat. My son got into his current school in the 3rd term of Year 3, he was offered an interview by ESF in Oct when he was in Year 4 (we applied a year earlier).

So I rather stay in yew Chung cos their through train system and the kindergarten n primary  offer is garanteen.   Now my son already started Playgroup there . He loves it so much

ESF kindergarten students will continue to have priority when applying to Renaissance College.
However this year's intake (2013-14) of K1 students will be the last batch to enjoy priority when applying to ESF primary schools as well as Discovery College (in 2 years' time).

May I know whether ESF kindergarten students have priority entry to RC and other ESF primary schools?

mienmien

Agree with sschiu. YC has more chinese and they put great emphasis on mandarin too.

The two schools are running very different curriculum. RC is an IB through train school from Yr 1-13 ...

YC uses British National Curriculum for primary and prepare students for IB diploma throughout primary and secondary curriculum according to the school. RC and a lot of ESF schools are also mainly Hong Kongers (except those on the Island side). YC is well known around the world and has excellent connection with universities around the world.
And the most important of all, YC is a Christian background school and the children are generally well behaved.
