Don't know how to pick?? AIS or CAIS or SWCC(YMCA primary new in Shamshuipo started last year)??

As would like my kid study U in USA, thought AIS would be perfect match PLUS no need to buy debenture. But heard it is not so good and the school is small ... etc.

Heard CAIS is good and will move to a brand new huge campus in 2016, but need to study religious that I really not like my kid to study in any religious subject. Also need to but debenture when move into the new campus.

SWCC, new and small old campus. But heard it is good school with good hearted teacher.

Pls comment how you pick from these 3 schools and why??

My girl is now studying Grade 1 in CAIS. I would say it is a good school as:

1, teachers and staff  ...

CAIS students are following Alberta curriculum and granted Alberta diploma instead.

My girl is now studying Grade 1 in CAIS. I would say it is a good school as:

1, teachers and staff at the school are very caring and affectionate to students.

2, the Chinese standard is high if you compare with those really "westernized" international school like ESF, KIS.

3, the students are in general very discipline (again, to compare with other international school, according to the school bus nannies) as CAIS really emphasize on Christianity and moral teaching.

Some other points to note:

1, current campus is old and not attractive, but they will be moving to a new one which should be ready on 2016.

2, the public exam which their current grade 12 students are now taking is Ontario Diploma and AP which will be more favourable if you plan to send your kids to universities in US or Canada. But of course there are some students in CAIS end up going UK or even staying in HK.

Actually there is a thread / topic earlier called "請教 CAIS 家長" which provides a very detail discussion about the school which you may have more information from it.

Good luck in you application!
