其實兩間都唔錯, 我自己較鍾意陳守仁.  不過陳守仁都幾難入, 所以先了解一下你小朋友英文程度如何, 如果係好既一定揀陳守仁先, 如果一般, 可能in九龍塘會好d.

Actually I had the same qestion as you last yr.  Eventually I chose TSL.

Thanks for all your feedback.  The time is finalized and they are not crashed.  Fingercross my kid can get through them with ease.

I prefer KTS,  based on its academic performance to secondary school and the school net.

I prefer KTS, personally, I dont't like TSL

I prefer KTS too.  Personally, I don't like there are too many different ethnics there.  Yes, I'm racist.

I am afraid you are only targeting a particular race there.  You are probably the first one who openly claims yourself as a racist here.

Gooddaddy, you are very frank!
I got several friends whose children got accepted by TSL but they finally rejected the offer.  The reason is exactly similar to yours.  But their point is not that there are too many different ethnics; instead, they think there is an overwhelming number of students from a particular ethnic group that they don't like.  Some fathers are very concerned if their future son-in-law will be from that ethnic group.

猴子爸,
How about yourself?  Are you concerned that you may have a daughter-in-law in that ethnic group too?

As parents, we should teach our kids to be open minded and in today's society, it's hard for me to imagine that someone, being parents themselves, can claim themselves to be "racist" - this can become a crimal offense under the racial discrimination ordinance. Do you expect your kids can only deal with people of their own race or selected race in their future society? From my personal experience from a kindergarten and primary school similar to TSL, I have always had an opened mind about different races and now my ex-classmates are all over the world, which in a way helped me in developing my international connectiions and benefited me both personally and professionally.

猴子爸

I have less concern about it.  I always think that having a son means having much less worry in that area... you know what i mean

I can't agree with you more, lovingparent.  
In my work place there are some south asian people who are holding high-ranking positions and making important decisions for our organization.  I also know from friends that the same is true for big banks like Standard Chartered.
If we keep telling our kids or unintentionly implying to them that we don't "like" them or they may be "inferior", I don't know how the kids will react and handle when their teachers or bosses are south asians.  Actually many popular schools have indian teachers as native english teachers.

lovingparent,
I got your attention, didn't I?  I deliberately used that word to see what responses I would get and I'm glad to see someone saying that we should be more accomodating towards people.  Actually I'm not racist, I've many black and indian friends when I was a student in UK.  I now withdraw my statement.  To be honest, of all the different ethnic people I have met, Chinese, and I hate to say that, is probably the most discriminatory people in the world.  They don't like their own people from mainland, Singapore or Malaysia etc.  Anyway, let's not talk about this subject as it is against the forum rule I belive.

Sorry, I'm a bit confused.  Do you mean what you said? or you are being sarcastic here?
For me, TSL is in the top 3 of my list for my son.
