但是学费这个问题也不是中国人推高的，毕竟大多数也不是富豪

No wonder cdnis is getting more and more academic now

I think there is pros and cons to the move made by CDNIS.  My only point was that I hope they adhere to a good nationality mix, and not become another YCIS/ISF where they are very focused on profit-making and therefore keep charging very high amounts of tuition which can be afforded by "one specific nationality".
If they can keep their diversity mix strong and their tuitions fair, then I think this is a smart move to streamline things.

I’m sure even though it will be bilingual, it’ll still be streamed (just like VSA) so native speakers will still be in different class to non Chinese speakers and still somewhat attractive to foreigners/parents who want their children to speak some Chinese.
YCIS is attractive to mainland Chinese parents partly because of its brand name in China and is seen as a prestigious international school in mainland. It’s seen as ‘prestigious’ partly because of it being super expensive and people equating price to being ‘good’. As usual, brand names go very far in China/Hk.

I would like to ask what is the difference? Will the school strengthen the Chinese proficiency?

No, it just means because of high-demand from the parents and enrollment, they will now do bilingual stream (50 english / 50 chinese) and eliminate the International stream completely (80 english / 20 chinese).
Usually the internaitonal stream has mainly been for foreigners who may not want their children to be fully immersed in Chinese as they are afraid they can't pick up the language vs. other children who are native speakers.

But what this move tells me is that CDNIS is now attracting a lot more parents/students who want to be immersed in Mandarin, thus pushing CDNIS to keep their operations simple and streamline everything into this 1 single stream.   It also makes me wonder the diversity of the classroom (i.e. is there really a true diversity mix?  Or will it become another YCIS where majority are MLC students).

讀其他IS甚少local school都好多人會學第三個語言，德文都係其中一個選擇，亦唔係要學德文就放棄中文。GSIS又好，其他IS又好，中文外補都係基本，cdnis也不例外

GSIS幼稚園都好似有中文？知唔知學校點解咁安排嘅？黎緊會唔會改呢？近年IS都不斷改善中文curriculum。謝 ...

幼稚園有每星期兩堂PTH(同ESF一樣）
唔會改，因為要加中文堂即係cut其他課程（cut英文？cut德文？）佢地話Y1要好穩固英文先，所以要教好多。
近年好多IS改善中文curriculum, 因為要吸引多啲local家庭。
我覺得都有好處，因為Y1-3自己先廣東話教繁體，Y4先跟學校轉簡體，所以佢對繁廣都有概念，我而家同佢默書都係用廣東話的（因為我PTH太差佢叫我唔好講
至於繁體，其實我要求認得可以了，寫就簡體夠了，少D筆劃快啲寫完仲好（我認我懶）。
所以睇自己要求，冇話一定邊間。
