如果入唔到ESF小學，可以入咩。

hrvman

大家好。我係一個三歲幾小朋友爸爸。個女而家晌青衣ESF讀Ｋ１。

我唔知道入ＥＳＦ小學嘅機會有幾大，但係就想準備一下先。

究竟如果ESF小學唔收，係咪只可以讀其他國際學校？定係報本地學校都得？如果報本地學校，咁地址咪好緊要？同埋入本地學校咪要學好多嘢做Resume呀？

我Ｄ問題可以好無聊，但呢樹係我唯一搵到答案嘅地方。

唔該哂。

Education bureau would make sure one seat from subsidized school/govt school be given to your kid after K3 [this is something related to what you hear about lucky draw, marks count.]  

You can also apply for your kid DSS/private schools [ESF should go to this category]

hrvman

但係ＥＳＦ讀到Ｋ２就要上小學，如果上唔到咁係咪要出去讀Ｋ３？

ESF is road to Top Band ONE school even DSS/Private.

hrvman

But it is not guaranteed the kid can enter their primary school. I mean just in case my girl performs very bad in the interview and they don't accept, what should I do?

Sorry I forgot ESF has only 2 years Kindergarten!  I don't know the answer.  I suggest you call Ed Bureau of how to handle this kind of scenario during K2-K3.  It seems there are two questions here:

1.   How easy it is to get into K3 of another kindergarten [would Ed Bureau give the kid a seat]?
2.  Can you still participate Education Bureau P1 assignment if you already go to ESF year 1?

I am actually considering renting an apartment in network 34 or 41, but 41 is really expensive to have an acceptable apartment there. i also heard a lot of people are borrowing address. Do you think it is worthy to live in 34/41 so my girl can have chance to get into better school there?  

Any other suggestion?

Thanks,

hrvman

其實係咪如果目標係DSS/private, 地址唔係一個問題?

地址只係luckydraw 或入本地名校時先用?

sampapa

Yes,
Address is no use for DSS/Private.
Only for P1 luckydarw.

hrvman,

有一個問題想問你, esf 幼稚園是不是全英文教學, 無中文的 ?  如果係, 再找local 的讀 k3 都對呀小朋友幾有難度.

hrvman

對.係冇中文堂嘅. 講中文都仲OK因為屋企主要講中文, 但認同寫完全唔得, 除非父母好有時間恆心去教. ESF有課外普通話堂可以報D, 但都係冇認字寫字.

我就係驚接唔到去LOCAL就煩. 加埋佢地教學方法唔係坐定定, LOCAL學校佢可能好唔鍾意..

入其他國際小一係咪都要完成K3先得? 定係K2可以報?

My suggestion:

1. Repeating K2 in TY ESF to wait interview for ESF or local pri next year;
2. Finding a place in local K3 to prepare local syllabus including Chinese;

是的, 如要接去LOCAL, 最煩係無中文, 因K3的中文已教同寫左好多, 有D 幼稚園要寫短句子了, 到時先追都幾係野.  你不如咁啦, 想有兩手準備, 襯佢而家仲細3歲多, 自己開始教佢認中文字同比D 功課佢寫下, 同佢打下底, 萬一到時你想佢讀LOCAL 時都唔會太難追, 咁最好當然係接上 ESF 小學就不用煩啦.  但有時D 野好難講架MA, 到時不是最心儀, 你又想佢多條出路, 唯有, 而家自己下D 功夫囉.  

我小朋友現在讀 N, 不過, 是LOCAL 幼稚園, 都開始要認中文字了.

hrvman

其實外面有冇D課程幫呢類國際學校學生學中文? 父母都要返工,跟本好少時間可以教到個細路. 而且晌屋企跟本冇可能坐定定聽我教, 寫兩隻字就走咗去.

我聽過朋友講, 係有的, 她的女兒番學太過遊雲, 好多中文字都無法入腦, 最後, 都係出去上認字班學番識.

兩手準備好一些,始終ESF的小學的學額較幼稚園的少,而且也有機會收其他學校的學生.

建議考慮埋其他的international school小學部,如果經濟能力許可的話

因有很多的international school的幼稚園也與ESF一樣是K1 & K2,然後升小學部.

學中文可以當bonus

Hi hrvman,

I have heard that tsing yi esf does have k3 for kids who couldn't get back into esf primary to join the traditional stream allocation.  I think you can try other international school also but they are even more expensive then esf.

Actually, I quite agree with monkey05, the biggest problem going back to traditional stream is the chinese reading and writing, and the amount of homework. A course on the side will definitely help with the chinese problem. Also, while applying for the dss or private schools, you might want to try the active learning schools which has less demand on homework, and probably more time for your child to catch up on the chinese during the first few years of primary... eg. pui kui, wong kam fai, hkuga, cky...

Good luck to you!

咁可能要用暑假參加啲認字班. 寫唔到都認得先. 中國人點可以唔識中文. 第人比鬼佬用國語笑.
