九龍塘宣道小學 VS 英基下國際小學

Kevin2021

如題，求問問假使兩間學校均來offer, 該如何選呢？一間傳統名校，一間口碑很好的國際小學。多謝！

Maybe I pretend to be you and your question like:

I want to let my kid to try international school, and fortunately he got an offer from FIS (? International stream), I have also waiting ESF for him (better state the name of the ESF primary).

I chose these 2 schools because… (? Location, ? Friends’ recommendation, ? Local / Expat mix / ?IB performance…)

He is also fortunate enough to get a local school offer (APS), and we are locals and knew the local system better. (the Chinese environment is also our concern? The homework / assessment is your favorite to brush your kid or you want to skip the comparison among the kids?)

It takes me to think again if the kid’s priority goes to local system / international system while he was in elementary.

I am not working out which system best suits my kid / my family.

I really do not want the drawbacks of ? System (eg difficult to catch up Chinese / dictation every week…), but if I do not choose local / IS there is something I really love will be missed eg independent thinking / excel by practice…

Thanks!

The choice depends on your knowledge, trust and comfort to the school.

Quick reply: better not to compare 2 schools especially when they are both good schools

So your son got offers from FIS, AIS (American IS) and APS (Alliance PS)?

Well, thanks for your comments. Actually I am still waiting for ESF. Now I have got the FIS offer letter. If you have the offers from AIS and FIS, which school will you choose? any reasons for doing that? Thanks a lot.

A parent has to set a clear goal and commitment to your kid. Say you want you kid to learn Chinese as a must, and a kid sat no, then you have to show your stand clear. If you keep everything hidden, the one who try to talk with you will go nowhere.

樓主，見你提過follow the kids, 其實back to square 1, 你嘅小朋友想點？佢對呢兩間學校嘅感覺係點？

相信佢係好叻嘅小朋友，兩類學校都應付到，而佢可能都未必好講得出自己想點，咁就要視乎家長想要啲乜嘢。

想要balanced life? 想小朋友做神校畢業生？ 想佢對學習有興趣？想佢成績有保證？等等…..

好坦白我自己都諗過呢類問題，都有問好多人意見，不過最終真係好睇你自己想要乜嘢。

我小朋友p.1 & p.2 都係讀宣道,絕對唔適合佢, 因為佢好動愛發問，學校根本唔主張發問 ...

我仔的情況一樣，讀名幼日日唔想返學，每朝喊，好似好委屈。班主任每次放學話佢發夢情況好嚴重,自己鍾意講嗰啲嘢就可以講到好細緻，咁我問佢有咩辦法佢話你訓練佢多做指令,要問到個問題先可以講嘢。我自己都好怕接放學佢，每次都批評我個仔仲要喺佢面前批評。我覺得傳統學校就淨係會睇到你嘅缺點,唔同所有人一樣呢，你就係跟唔上進度。我覺得傳統學校係好適合啲好指令嘅小朋友。上個學年轉返國際，雖然返得四個月學，但係好開心，而且成日有play dates, 好鍾意返學。咁我就安樂晒。
其實我都係宣小畢業，我都好感激間學校嘅，不過有得，負擔得到大家梗係揀返國際學校啦。

宣道一班40個學生，教學方式真係好傳統，民生都類似。我唔明樓主究竟鍾意乜嘢，我比較鍾意IS學制但都唔係完全無不滿，部分本地學校我都可以接受，但一定係新派果哋。傳統學校同IS差別咁大，你真係要問下自己鍾意點樣教育小朋友。

我小朋友p.1 & p.2 都係讀宣道,絕對唔適合佢, 因為佢好動愛發問，學校根本唔主張發問，只需要你靜靜坐喺位聽。但轉到國際學校後佢覺得好開心, 因整個教學形式都好啱佢，所以好鐘意返學。所以選邊類學校都好睇你小朋友個性。但我本人絕對唔認同填鴨式教學

首先，宣道是否算名小，不同人有不同的看法，識人寧選九龍塘學校或王錦輝等也沒選它；另外，傳統和國際學校 ...

如果純睇升中派位(不計龍校)，APS絕對稱得上係名小

當然，KTS、SFA都唔弱，神校附屬小學就更加唔使講  

但WKF數據上就好似有較明顯差別，事關佢間中學只有B1C-2A級別

當然，作為家長係要揀間最適合自己小朋友嘅學校，所以好難用甚麼客觀數據去衡量邊間比邊間好

dse 狀元什麼狀況就唔知，係3大 dean's list, dse生，但做嘢一嚿雲就識一個

我都曾經有個自小美國長大，美國名牌大學畢業既舊同事，佢真係好學者，只適合留喺象牙塔教書或做研究
我覺得有時性格既野，學制都唔一定可以帶來太多變化
