I'm a mother of 2, in which both my girl and my boy were born in Dec.

My girl is now studying in K3 and is accepted by a private primary school already. In kinder, her academic results are good.  However, she is such a shy girl. In the P1 admission game, I totally experience the disadvantages of a small kid trying to enter the top tier primary schools.

In view of the above, I decide to let my little boy be a big kid in the kinder. He is now taking the PN class and will attend K1 in the same kinder this coming Sep.  Then I will let him have K1 interviews in order to get a place in a better kinder next year. I trust that it will save a lot troubles to repeat in K2/K3 (since a lot of kinders do not allow students to repeat).  Besides, the small boy may not know that he has repeated K1 and hence the hard feeling on him will be minimized.

Do you know any DSS or private school do not accept / welcome extra big B (born in Dec one year before)?
I am afraid I will make the wrong decision if I let my boy to extra Big B now ....

Spending one more year in kindergarten now would be better than repeating P.1 later. Given the heavy workload in traditional school, a 6-year-old kid will handle much much better than a 5+year-old one, especially a boy!

In my case, I have a big boy doing Pr2 and a small girl doing K3 now.

SORRY, MAY I ASK THE SMALL b (ESP DEC b) PARENTS, IF YOU CAN CHOOSE AGAIN, WILL YOU CHOSE TO LET YOUR B REPEAT N1 SO AS TO BECOME BIG B IN K1, INSTEAD OF FRUSTRATING NOW WHETHER TO REPEAT K3 OR P1? I  ...

it means small boys have even more need to repeat than small girls? Is it because boys have more difficulties in concentration and in writing?

It depends but I generally think so. Childhood is a precious gift for kids. After going to primary school, they just lose that precious moment because of the unbelievably heavy workload in HK traditional primary schools. If things can be managed, definitely it will be good for both boy and girl to enjoy just one more year of being 'a child' in their whole life!!!

咁啱看見這主題有感, 也發表下自己的意見.
認同有家長說, repeat幾時會時下下策, 除非情非得已.
何謂情非得已呢? N1 repeat沒有道理, N1也沒什麼好學, 只學自理, 有必要嗎?
K1, K2, K3 repeat?如果學校都覺得冇必要, 何必要這樣做? 為的只是派好的P1做大B? 誰敢包這個結果一定會是好的呢?
我覺得做細B時, 要用盡各種方法, 包括考私校,直資, 自行分配, 大抽獎甚至叩門去入一些好的學校, 甚至是top school. 失敗了則讀住P1再試插班, 到唔得時再插班一些比就讀學校好的P2, 及報翻最心儀的top school的P1.
要重讀的話, 要make sure重讀果年都不是浪費時間, N1-K3的學習內容一定簡單過P1, top school的P1課程可能是其他學校的P2程度, 何不讓子女repeat P1而repeat KG呢? 這樣細B適應top school的課程也沒這麼辛苦吧!

另外, 想了解下樓主要考慮repeat 的原因, 是入輕鬆的學校還是top school? 入top school 不是講笑的, 小朋友自小就要努力學這學那了, 時間更不可以浪費, 如果這樣enjoy their childhood比起學習就沒有那麼重要了.
如果只是希望入一些中上的小學, 相信沒有repeat的需要
我自己的理念是, 小時候可以谷的, 則盡量谷. 使他們很快可以享受到學習的成果 (如:很快可以自己看故事書, 能掌握學習內容, 受到別人的稱讚, 自覺好叻, 在學校成績也不會因落後而灰心, 如能考頭幾名更好, 那是小朋友自己的成就感). 到越來越大時則作為家長的想谷都谷唔到, 包括學習動機和學習內容.
不過不緊要的, 孩子始終有自己的路要行, 就算由top school跌翻出黎, 都有一定的底子, 去D 冇咁好的學校也能有一翻成就.
