相信你是說 ISF 小學部的中文科老師吧。對呀，是不少是來自台灣和內地的老師，也有來自本地學校教學經驗 ...
Thank you for providing such a calm and objective response. My child is in the Preschool and is going to Academy next year, so while I don’t have first hand experience of the primary school, I know many parents in Academy and believe many of your responses are fully on point.
Most of the non Chinese teachers are from other international schools in HK or from overseas. While there is definitely more homework than pure Intl schools, most of it is Chinese hw and reality is that it is very difficult to learn intensive Chinese without hw and some memorisation. That is something I have accepted even though our family preference is for little to no hw. The preschool itself is completely play base and only has hw for long holidays, and those are usually posters for show and tell or other fun work.
My understanding is that many kids left after primary school because their parents felt they had developed a good fundamental Chinese base and didn’t want the intensive Chinese in secondary school as you discussed. Also, ISF is a relatively new school and have only had a few graduating classes hence no track record. As their track record is developing quite well with graduates going to top universities globally (on par if not better than most Intl schools in HK), it is increasingly difficult to get into the school.
A last point I want to make, I see many parents fixated on the IB score. My view is that it is the university acceptance that matters, not the IB score. It doesn’t matter what your IB score is if you don’t get into good schools. And getting a good IB school doesn’t always translate into top uni acceptance, at least for US schools.
