回覆 Azzurro 的帖子
i agree to compare the university placement to decide. if ur kid can't go to a decent uni (not the top one, but can't be a bad one), not matter how happy your kid's school life is, how good the school facilities are, i would not choose that school.
of course, esf is non selective. if u apply in year 12, of course they would consider ur gcse result. but if your kid starts in year 1 or in kindergarten, its unlikely that they would kick you out because of poor academic result. u see the IB result of the school, some kids only go below 30, or even 25 points out of 45. but the average result is still 38 to 39. its really impressive. it means a lot of kids can still get high mark, just make sure ur kid wont go to the bottom. when you compare with the top boarding schools in uk (which u need to pay $400,000 per year), they are highly selective, with a lot of tests before u get in, but the IB result is just slightly higher than esf.
but of course, not a lot of school in uk take ib, many take A-level. how to compare a-level with ib result? university knows better than us. i never compare the Oxbridge rate. even the top boarding schools, only a handful of kids go to Oxbridge. but if u see the rate to go to rusell group uni (the top 24 uni in uk), esf is not bad (shatin college has around 60% kids to rusell group). its worse than the top boarding school but already much better than state school in uk. so i never agree that state schools in uk are like international schools in hk, in terms of academic result and uni placement.
