有無小朋友讀緊將軍澳真道小學? 可否分享下

It was a TRUE STORY.

A girl was accepted by Logos in 2003-04. Her parents were so happy becoz their daughter could enter such a dream school they thought. Unfortunely, the girl's father was laid off by his company and her mother was a housewife.

They remembered that Mr. Yau, the principal of Logos said that if any student has finiancial problem, Logos must offer finiancial support to that student. For example, Free School Fee etc. So, the girl's parents called Mr. Yau to explain the worst situation they had. Mr. Yau told them no need to worry about it because their students' parents all were Middle Classes. They would easy to find a job in a short period. Then, stop the conversation.

The girls' parents not giving up and still called many times to the principal, Mr. Yau. Hope he could help the poor little girl. But, after that phone called, the girl's father did not catch Mr. Yau anymore. The reasons from his secretary were 1. He was so busy 2. He was not in 3. He was ill that day. 4. He was in meeting

The girl went to Logos for a few days in September untill her father found a Government Primary School. The girl's father wrote a letter to the principal, Mr. Yau that explained his daughter quit Logos. Oh! The girl's father received a phone call from Mr. Yau. Mr. Yau said, "I am so happy your daughter have other choice. AND I represent other parents to THANK YOU. You know, they have a chance to enter my school because your daugher quit here."

I know the girl's father so I trust this is a REAL STORY.

我諗當中有些誤會, 你都係聽一面之詞, 當中過程只有當事人才知, 03-04年度, 就事件而言, 如未開學我係校長都叫佢返津貼好過, 你話佢個女讀到中途就話難轉, 我兩公婆有份工都唔係咁輕易決定放棄九年免費教育, 就你形容個兩夫婦佢地都好冒險喎! 一個人搵食都夠膽去真道讀, 雖然話學校會幫, 但都有原則, 唔係遲早變成領綜援咁都似, 聽校長講, 佢地的資金來源都係由各教會裏面既信徒捐獻, 一磚一瓦都係集資回來, 所以真係要用得其所先得

This is so terrible. Are you sure this is true? I attended the seminar and I think the principal is quite nice.

Producer

Please remind your memory,

1. Did Mr. Yau, the principal of Logos, emphasize there are No Label on each child during the interview? They only give a Number to each child so the interview is fair. BUT, after first round interview, Mr. Yau will meet ALL parents who selected one by one. And he will decide who can enroll P-1 of his school.  WHY?

2. Didn't Mr. Yau say that his pupils' are coming from all classes? BUT, he also emphasize some parents are so helpful and one of them is Lawer, one of them is Accountant, one of them is Doctor. WHY?

3. Did Mr. Yau say that the pupils in Logos will attend IB examination rather than HK local examination? Do you know it's not so easy to be approved by IB institute? In Hong Kong even English Founation School, just a few Internation Schools can attend IB examination.

  There are lots of "Bad comments", I do not want post all of them here because it's none of my business. The reason I post the Story here is let everybody has a chance to understand Logos in difference angle. That's it.

Dear Producer

May I try to answer your question from different angle:
1.  Last year, Logos selected 300 children from 1st round, and then the Principal met with their parents in the 2nd round.  Out of the 2nd round, only 200 children were accepted... According to my understanding, The Principal would like to talk with each parents and know their mission of education, and the parents must be confident to Logos' concept, otherwise, it is difficult for them to commit their children to Logos for 11 years. It is very (or quite) difficult for the children to change to other schools after some years.  moreover, during the conversation, Principal Yau can find out whether the parents really take care of their children in every ways, or just put the burden to the maids....
In the previous years, Principal Yau attempted to discuss with ALL parents, but it took so much time that he could not afford. Therefore starting last year, they did the first round selection first.

I think it is good to have chance to talk with school, so that we can understand each other better.

2.  It is normal that parents from middle class will be attracted by this kind of schools.  New concept , new school premise, and less pressure.  So it is normal that most parents are working as lawyers, accountants, Engineers, doctors.....

3. Mr Yau told us that the children, after 11 years of studying there, will attend IB and also the new advanced level (which will replace the existing HKAL soon), as he advised us that there will be 4 years for all universities soon.

One question:

The school is already authorized to offer IB programme ?
I cannot find the name of the school from the authorized list of IBO.
Anyone can help?


Thank you!

Producer

   New concept, new theory, new school site. Yes, there are many parents are attracted by those condition. Also, I am not surprised that there are so many MIDDLE Classes Parents applied DSS Primary School. One, they can afford the School Fees. Two, they want their kids receive "Another way teaching" from those new concept schools. Three, they use their feet to vote HongKong Education System.

All in all, if you buy it, you will strongly stand for. Otherwise, just like me, I do not want my kid to be a guinea pig [White mouse].

In fact, Logos is still Fresh in Hong Kong Education Field. Let's see her growth in the next few years. I also want she could growth in a good environment.

Producer,

你既言論衝著丘校長及真道而來, 你可知一間學校的行政並非一人可以決定, 真道只有短短兩年時間, 而你得到的消息卻是負面得很, 你的言論我並非全不想信, 但我更相信 REAL STORY 的發生, 當中有其因由, 假如你係以第三者身份去睇呢間學校/校長, 我個人覺得你唔係好持平, 同理性

你咁清楚第一輪同第二輪選生方法, 莫非你有小朋友曾報讀真道? 其實02-03/03-04/04-05年度的收生放法都有唔同, 第一屆要借人校舍上堂, 因新校未建好, 第二屆聽簡介會都是借別人的地方, 但卻有新校舍用, 第三屆簡介會可以在該校聽, 而第二輪確是要面見丘校長, 我認為無不妥, 因為入讀人數一年比一年多, 篩選少不免, 我承認你提既律師醫生同會計係專業人事, 但你暗指校長白鴿眼咁就唔係幾好, 始終無證無據, 好多抵毀既野都係唔好講,

真道好唔好由家長自己決定啦! 人家只有兩年貨仔, 我睇唔到有咩你所講既 There are lots of "Bad comments", 咁我反問你, 呢間學校有冇好野???????

Producer,

我都有聽過一的家長說唔想小朋友做白老鼠, 岩架, 唔想咪唔好讀, 至於你講既中產係有, 津貼學校其實都唔少中產, 係你無留意,
其實中產既人先唔會咁BUY真道, 因為佢地得一兩個仔女, 選擇一的有歷史既名校仲得,
倘若真道假以時日將來成為一間名校, 選生仲嚴, 如係一間差到無麟既學校, 仲要使錢交學費?? 我諗家長們啋佢都傻! 所以我都係個句, 唔需要好似你咁咁高調係度講,
你係度係咁彈, 如果間學校好似你咁講就唔會一年多人過一年啦!

我怕他自己走到道路的盡頭時，真道還不能變成一所不只是香港頂級，而是區內頂級的學府。

成為香港頂級，而是區內頂級的學府談何容易，現實點，别發夢吧。

對不起,打斷各位的話柄.我是中立的,很想請交真道家長下述疑問,望求賜教:


我去年和今年都有去聽真道的簡介會,很喜歡這所學校.但當我沿著樓梯由四樓走到地下,總看不到任何由學生寫的字,畫的圖畫和照片,學校總是空空如也,連課室也沒有任何學生的作品,真奇怪!

本來可從上述的作品來了解學校的課程,績效和教學方針.

很想請教真道家長為何真道沒有把學生的作品張貼出來呢?

judy

Heather,

我曾在油塘地鐵站見到臻美學生的畫，他們的水準之高令人印象深刻。不單有一定之技巧、而且在構圖上有紋有路，且能請楚地表達其思路，十分難得。

我不是中立的，我對直資學校有偏愛。對真道我没偏見，只是那個Mr Yau令我覺得很好笑。老實說，與其說他是校長，不如說是Salesman。不知是物以類聚、或是受其感染，竟有家長說真道將成全港最好或亞洲之冠。

要見真道學生之作品，可以，如果你是記者。

真道開校時，和家長小朋友在酒校聚餐。第二天，報紙登出來了，說Mr Yau教道小朋友餐桌禮儀、全人教育云云。

搬入新校舍了，記者去参觀，第二天，報紙登出來了，說Mr Yau創意十足。發明用曬衣夾(用於內衣服的那種圓形的)來夾書。

一所學校，要來吸引學生、不是用學生本身，而是用校長，是甚麽學校呢？

用校長也勉强可以，但不是校長之成就、論文。而是用...，是甚麽學校呢？

Enchante

""對真道我没偏見，只是那個Mr Yau令我覺得很好笑。老實說，與其說他是校長，不如說是Salesman。不知是物以類聚、或是受其感染，竟有家長說真道將成全港最好或亞洲之冠。"""

Totaly agree.

""要見真道學生之作品，可以，如果你是記者。""

Not only Reporters. You also be a Teacher of Logos, Parents who have kids studying there loh.

gigimay

Poor Mr. Yau & Logo's Parents.
試問無人試,又點會有成功呢?
梗有人創出新的意念,而新的意念每每都會有一些追隨者,喜歡的便會追隨,而不喜歡的又何必太多意見呢?
如真有其事往往只有局內人最清楚,又何需旁觀者陳述呢 ?!
真奇怪!!

多事的我

Mr Yau 簡直是 "Top Sales" 啦!!!

VISION 1:
To be a leading university with significant international impact and strong local commitment.

VISION 2:
To develop into a unique school of character, meeting world-class standards and comparing favourably with best-known quality schools in the world.

Vision 1 is extracted from HKUST and vision 2 is extracted from Logos.

What's wrong to have vision of becoming a leading school or a world-class standard school ?

As I know Logos only intends its current primary school students to take the International Baccalaureate Diploma (or another better examination if there will be any) as well as the future HK University entrance examinations. I think it's too early for Logos to register the IB Diploma program for the P3 students right now, isn't it ?

tobyyes2003

If the school is not an authorized to provide IB PYP, the student can have an IB diploma?
I know Victoria is doing a lot to work to try to be an authorized IB PYP school.

Too early to have the authorized status?
