Dear Parent,

Myself went to CKY, St. Margret and Pui Kiu seminar in last 2 weeks. As my son was studying in CKY for P2 this year, therefore I knew CKY better then the other two.

I cannot said CKY is the best school for everyone, but I can see a big changes of my son. He likes to read books in his spare time now, willing to talk in English and especially Manderin with me and Daddy. (And the prononciation was great).Not flurent yet, but at lease he was brave enough to speak out. As I am a working mother, therefore I do not have time to talk with the teacher on the phone very often, but the class teacher always keep on up date what is happening to him from time to time.

Be honest, my son was not a smart boy and not independent. But after getting into this school, he did improved.

He is very happy to go to this school. Really happy!

I went to Pui Yiu, and this school was my second choice compare to St. Margret. Kids are happy and I can feel the passion of the headmaster-I cannot explaine, but I can feel.
Compare to the other 2, Pui Kiu is a bit more forcus on Chinese culture. And I think this point is important for the coming future. I believe that China will be a lot more strong after 20 years .

St. M , I like it was because my kid can learn another language during their school life. But after I attend the school seminar, I think this school is not really what I am looking for. During school seminar, school cannot really tell the parent what they can give to the children during the 12 years education. Only forcus on how they care about the pronounciation of English. I left already in the middle of the seminar.

The above is only my feeling and opinion after I attend the seminar.

achow,

Agree with you. St. Margaret's talk was disappointing.

May I ask for your view on PLK TSL then?  Will you consider it?  Thanks.

Hi,
I went to all 3, here are my comments:

Logo:
Nice presentation by the HM but he was slightly too arrogant for my liking...He has his own philisophy about teaching kids and the school seems to place a lots of emphasis  on nurturing kids in their all-round abilities. They also give quite a lots of freedom for their students (e.g. not having to wear school uniform. )
Pros:
- HM is serious on nurturing the next generation and very experienced.
- Flexibility.
- One of the cheaper ones (for DSS).
Cons:
- Very few native English teachers.
- maybe a bit too commercial from the way they presented the school so not easy to see what really inside the 'package' if you know what I'm mean
P.S. I was quite surprised that my daughter got accepted cos' she 'froze' during the 2nd interview

Pui Kui:
We didn't manage to attend the main presentation as the hall was jammed packed (but from I've heard it was not very well presented!!) . We did however, walked around the facilities/classrooms and talked to a few teachers and students. The feeling I got was that the students are quite happy there as there are no exams and not much home work. I'm not sure whether this is a good thing or not but I personally prefer a more balanced approach.
Pros: you kids would be happy
Cons: Need extra-curriculum activities to enhance their academics

CKY:
The best presenation I've attended so far and I was very impressed by the presentations done by the students. My fav one so far. They seems to strike a good balance between academics and teaching flexibility.

Pros: Good all-round school.
Cons: Quite expensive.


Hope this helps!

I went to PLK TSL 3 years ago. There were a lot of foreigner from other country. But I don't think the parent have a good manner. For example, parent was wearing sandles and putting their feet on the chair while waiting the interview.

I am sorry, but it was my little reaseach. Therefore I did not send my kid to this school.

achow,

Thanks for your sharing. So you are aiming at CKY. Have you tried BU at Shatin as well?  Seems that this new school is quite popular.

There are really not many choices, and it's very difficult to get in anyone.

各位,
因本人有同事的小朋友在CKY讀書, 常聽說CKY的教育方式及校風都不錯, 我亦好希望給我小朋友選擇類似的學校, 但我家在北角, CKY對我來說實在太遠, 所以想問下大家, 港島區有無類似CKY的學校?

要讀國際課程(IB)，又要平，還要在港島區......唔，有，都唔好貪。太小資源的話，可能在12年後，先至知唔夠人爭，到時就大件事......

There is one DSS on HK side called HKUGA, now heard that they will abandon running IBD, but still using activity based method, which may be similar to CKY.

CKY's permanent campus is not ready at the moment and in the meantime, they are "borrowing" a site at Tin Hau.

Regarding CKY, can somebody confirm that it's not running IB in its secondary school?  I remembered I heard that if it's a DSS, it must more or less follow the government's syllabus, and it might mean that all students still need to take the HKCEE at secondary five.  So in this sense, all the DSS could only employ a more "activity-based" approach or a more flexible approach but still need to face the HKCEE in the future and prepare their students in doing so.

While Victoria is really an "IB" school.  Am I correct?
