When YWPS became a DSS school, it was a relatively new school. Hence it is understandable why Mrs. Lam need to be high profile to increase the publicity of the school in order to attract more applicants.
The biggest problem of YW is that the students of YWPS, at least those top students, don't have the loyalty and cohesiveness of other thru train or feeder schools. So many good YWPS students would apply transfer to other better schools at lower form or apply other better secondary schools in P6. Of course, this prove the quality of YWPS students is very high but at the same time it causes damages to YWC. YWC just has 50 places for external students, so the quality of its S1 intake is very much depending on the quality of the students from its feeder primary school. To be honest, not many external Band 1a students would accept the offer from YWC to surrender the chance to get the offers from other top government or subsidized schools.
Yes, those YWPS students (or more precisely their parents) may think that they deserve a better school as the DSE results of YWC is not in the top tier. However, if YWC cannot retain those top students from YWPS, how can its DSE results be improved? Which come first - the chicken or the egg?
Regarding the transfer to a better primary school, you can't compare YWPS to APS / SFA. APS / SFA has no feeder secondary schools, their students apply for transfer mainly because they want to minimize the pressure and risk in the SSPA. YWPS is different, the students apply for transfer just because they think YWC is not good enough. That's why i said that the school doesn't have enough loyalty and cohesiveness.
As an outsider, I am interested in knowing whether Mrs. Lam has done anything to retain those top YWPS students. More YWPS students can go to a better school can demonstrate the succeed of YWPS and this will become Mrs. Lam's achievement but this may not align with the interest of the entire YW family. Any YWPS parent can shed some light on it? |
