如果有得選擇,比小朋友係香港讀,定外國讀

Early foundation study in Hong Kong, Maths and General study must be over average than the western kids, English might not be competitive to local native, so junior edcation must be in Hong Kong, High school and Uni can study aboard, the scope and the presentation skill will be well deverlop if study overseas.

I will let my kids study overseas for sure as it is a good way to explore themselves. Whether they can get to an elite university, I think I can't do too much as it really depends on each kid's character.

Personally, I don't think it is a good idea to let kids study abroad (alone) before junior high. If you worry about the English standard, just let them go to international schools.

Academical is important but child-parents relationship is invaluable. Oops, sorry! Side track the topic!

Before jumping on whether you should send your siblings to study abroad or not, let's look at the pros and cons of it.

In a nutshell, the pros for studying abroad:
more choices in terms of field of studies;
better professors;
better research;
Western way of teaching which is more creative;
broaden your vision internationally;
much more choices;
improve English standard (least important)

Cons are:
no Chinese;
could be very expensive depends on which school you want to get in;
Kid may need to live on his/her own;

Choice is up to you. Personally, I think that the standard of local Us are deteriorating and I have my mind set to send my boys abroad and is just a matter of when.
