Perhaps I am a monster parent in the eyes of people here. Likes most parents, however, I spend lots of time to do data search for choosing an appropriate school for my son.
I believe school is primarily a place for learning. Parents and family should take a more important role for ethical and moral training, discipline training and teaching the proper value judgment. I remember Mrs. Lam of YWPS said a similar thing when I attended the admission briefing session 4 years ago.
To assess a primary school without backup secondary school, I will look at its SSPA results as the key selection criteria. You can still have a choice six years later. For a thru train school or feeder school, I will not look at the primary school only but also the public exam performance of its secondary school. This is because once you are admitted to a thru train / feeder school, you will probably spend 12 years there unless you are the very top or bottom groups. That's why I would attend the admission briefing session of the feeder secondary school as well in order to make a more comprehensive judgment on the school.
I like YWPS and it is a good school in my mind. In fact, I never say any bad things about it. I just have reservation about its feeder secondary school. If you attend the admission briefing session of YWC, you will have a very different feeling from its primary section. Besides, I don't like school that has little transparency about its public examination result. Nothing need to be hidden and that's what we call integrity.
Quality S1 intake cannot guarantee good DSE results. I believe all those elite schools with excellent public examination results have one thing in common - they can create an atmosphere for autonomy in learning and healthy competition among its students.
I guess parents still worth to spend more time in reading those school reports to find out more about the school. Not just the statistics in the report, how the report is written and its sincerity is even more important. Together with attending the admission briefing session and talking to the teaching staff and students, you can probably come up with quite an accurate judgment on the school.
