You have appointed out the very reason that I always admire SPCPS Ms. Chan for all these years.

My boy came from an NGO kinder with many games but not strong in academic training and he could only spell one to ten when going to P1.  Then he was admitted by whatever I don't know std of Ms. Chan (I always guess that she likes students having good reasoning ability and enjoy communicating with adult).   However, I learned more about her professional believes, when I had an opportunity to discuss with her about primary education when my boy was in P6.  She talked about the brain development of children.  She stressed that curriculum should be designed in a manner to work together with the body and brain development but not necessary with the latest needs or trends of the society.

You can understand that I especially thankful for Ms. Chan about applying this professional view on primary education, so that SPCPS does not necessary must admit children with reasonable basic knowledge of PTH or English.  As these two elements might not be the most important elements of child development at that stage.  May be due to that kind of difference between the two schools, my boy and a number of boys not from elite kinders still had opportunities being admitted by SPCPS.


In my son's 6 years in the school, Ms. Chan always and only promised that when boys graduated from her school, could communicate both in PTH & Eng with reasonable std.  And she did deliver that to my boy.

Both schools are good, from my humble point of view, if both schools give offer, select the less traveling time option.  Children need a lot of sleep.

香港好一點的直資小學的校長，都是收學生專家，因為求過於供。迫令家長要花大氣力，一面栽培自己孩子，又要配合學校要求。

自己也許年長，幸運早在十一年前參加這個遊戲，不用走現在你們要走的苦路。孩子每個人都是獨立個體，都有很多不同特質，每間學校要的特質和後天準備的項目都有不同，要一個5、6歲人仔為應付多問不同學校的素求，而要多元訓練，好可能連玩的時間都沒有，正好是香港教育政策送給孩子的最佳禮物了。

認識我囝囝的同學十年了，成長後，個個都有自己特質，有時選校，真有點是緣份。

我們不是校長無人可以答到你, 即使你知道又如何? 你不可能改變你兒子的本性, 亦不是馮該類型的小孩都一定獲取錄。 你可以做的就是報名, 帶他去面試, 成功與否就交給上天安排。

我有朋友個仔 SPB 小二，當年考10間只有 SPB 收，就因為它不考學術，而我朋友仔是活潑多言類。其實個小朋友英文很勁，但中文很差，而家讀小二也花很大功課夫幫佢去追中文, 私人補習針對讀本應付測考，再出外補提升中文水平。所以學校面試考學術，有利有弊.

我覺得陳校長喜歡觀察型和實幹型? 不可只說會但不會做. 她是一位務實的人.

My boy had the luck to have offer from both school a few years ago.  We eventually chose SPCPS solely coz it is close to where we live.  Both schools are wonderful ones.  My boy has been in SPCPS for serveral years now.  He loves his school.  He has lots of fiends.  All kids there are confident, no matter if they are good in acdemic or not so good in academic.  They are all exceptionally good in communication skills.  Looking back, I think I haven't made a bad decision. [Here, I only say SPCPS is good and not that YW is not as good or YW is not better, as I have no experience with YW.]

聽完 spb briefing 後，好鍾意 spb.  校長真的是務實，很用心安排最適合的課程給學生，拔尖補底，tutorial 用兩個老師 in a class，英數將三班分四班上堂. 陳校長真的很低調，雖然在 dgs教了很久，但從不吹噓.

For me, i will give up 3 other good schools to go for spb.

小小資料分享，前兩年在 hk 考到IB 45分的狀元，小學時是讀 spb , 及至升中才轉至 esf 的.

我絕對認同陳校長係好務實和了解學生的，亦可見兩間學校方向之不同。我都係建議有得揀的家長快啲選擇適合自己囝囝的學校。我個人最大的考慮是囝囝可否在這學校健康地快樂地生活及成長，有面對挑戰的能力及分析能力，好讓他們面對將來社會的變化和挑戰。
