Actually, even in big city like Beijing and Shanghai, all their public schools accept their own city child first. Other child even born in Beijing and Shanghai but parents from somewhere else, their child still get no place in public school or need to pay extra. This is the policy we should learn from Shanghai and Beijing. No welfare until they pay enough tax to the city and successful apply for the citizenship.
I 'm sorry to say my family comes from Shanghai. We are working and living in HK. Take easy! We are contributing in HK and paid enough tax. We are not 雙非. Thanks for HK providing my child a chance to study. We feel enough.
Let talk back. The fact in SH is worse than HK. Local child lost fair chance to enter better school when the policy allow migrant children to pay extra money to enter school. The situation is terrible when it becomes money game. Good teacher switch to private school for more salary. You can image not all local parents can effort extra money.
So pls learn some but Ignore the money part. It's horrible
