我小朋友幼稚讀Victoria, 小/中學讀ISF! 以我膚淺嘅表面認識! ISF學生來自不同國家，有頗多西方國家的男士 ...

Would like to know whether a lot of Victoria's students would leave for other ISs after K2?  Do they mostly go to ISF?  Thanks a lot!

Why don't you check from the website of Victoria?

Those published ones are for K3 graduates.  I'm asking for those students who finish K2.

The students of Victoria Kindies would mostly go to P1 (local schools and DSS)after K3.  Only a few would choose to enter IS after K2.  In this minority group, a large % would go to ESF rather than ISF.

Victoria適合未諗定行邊條路的家長，鍾意Isf，就不用想，考過小一，真係辛苦。

前一排和維幼家長聚會，同學間父母係名小舊生、兄姊在讀必收、識人有關係的吾少。真係也人都吾識，赤手空拳，自己考、自己叩，得既亦有，但真係有眼淚的，如果有條順d、簡單d的路，不要虐待自己。

Did your kid study in Victoria before?  If yes, any comment on Victoria?

Yes my boy was in Victoria (HMT) for K1-2. We liked this school, teachers and classmates (& parents).

It's suitable to someone who hasn't decided which path to go: local or international

I have a different observation: I would say typically around 30% of VKN students leave before K3. Some leave after PN to go to local kindergartens. Some leave after K1 to go to international schools that offer reception class. The last bunch of leavers leave after K2 to go to ESF, ISF, etc. I am not sure whether a "large %" of VKN students ended up going to ESF instead of ISF - that is NOT because they prefer ISF over ESF, it's more because the ESF admissions system operates on a non-selective basis and if you don't have any priorities, getting a chance to be interviewed by ESF is purely by luck, whereas ISF interview all of their applicants and pick the ones that they think would be the best fit for their bilingual curriculum. VKN's bilingual stream students usually have the qualities that ISF is looking for, so quite a number of them ended up going to ISF.

Thank you for your comment.

Not true...many of my friends kids go to VSA and communicate in English. Basically I don't see big difference between these two schools, it all depends on how much PTH u want ur kids to learn. Actually many students in isf are from mainland China that's why they tend to communicate in PTH.
