Unlike HK, UK schools' cutoff is 31 August instead of 31 Dec. I think UK schools consider age of the kids rather than what grade he or she is in hk schools, as UK system and curriculum are different from hk
我問了數間學校有關2016年9月入讀Year 9的適合歲數, 他們回覆"born between September 2002 and August 2003 would start at College in September 2016 in school year 9". 但是有些學校會接受較大或較細年齡的, 最好先發電郵去心儀的學校問下。 另外, 有些學校已不接受申請了, 如果打算出年讀, 要快些著手申請了。
