HKPS(Ascot) vs SC

kinyee125

Thank u for kind reminder. But of course I truly understand that this 'international' is not that ''international''.

三心兩意唔係問題, 做父母梗係想揀最好的俾自己的仔女.

但提提你, st. cat. 雖然叫"international", 但不是真正的國際學校幼稚園. (真正的國際學校幼稚園如ESF是較適合涵接國際學校)

K1有雙班主任制, K2全部學生 ...

提提你, 如你重語言的, hkps (ascot) 的確做得好好, 佢地課程的確是密集, 多元化, 但小朋友是feel 唔到谷的.  今年k1是3班主任, 中英普老師長時間在課室, 學生多機會聽和講, 同埋也早開始寫字 (k1).  佢地train 小朋友自信心, 獨立也是有一套.  今年我的小朋友也在hkps 就讀, 很多野我從中看見. 實質上, 如你打算將來比小朋友考直資, hkps 唔會train 得差.  佢地今年小朋友在校外參加比賽得到唔少獎.

咁你而家呢家都好好，你唔再為你細嘅考慮咩?

其實到而家只係講到SC都係1:10，一面倒好好好!!!

而HKPS就話對沙田區小學有幫助.....咁好多媽媽都希望小朋友考到更好嘅小學(當然考唔考倒又係另一回事)，而且考小時，小 ...

哥哥嗰間, 都會幫個細報嘅, 但係唔係一定收架嘛, 始終ascot近屋企d .. 而且有個心結, 成日覺得hkps啱個大曳人多d (咁~ 唔收仲好, 唔駛煩!)

細嗰個.. 要睇吓性格點
我覺得揀間好而且又啱小朋友嘅~

而且考小時，小朋友嘅能力都係一重大因素，是否能讀到如SC/KV等，就等如成功嘅一半....

我唔太相信名牌, 特別係每年有600-700人畢業嘅學校
佢有20%家長讚好, 好過d細校大半人讚好!
到頭來.. 都係小朋友嘅能力決定結果

我.. 覺得學校細會親切d
上面有人話K2/K3要share班房
我唔清楚實際係點運作, 亦未聽過呢樣嘢(不過ascot真係好鬼少班房.. ) 我反而覺得, 同d唔同年紀嘅小朋友多d interaction應該係件好事! (according to 蒙氏嘅混齡班concept)

D.ma,

Thanks for your information.

I agreed that it is good for those small kids sometimes mixed up class with elder ones (MOS boxhill sometimes is doing so).

So, if you were me, you will choose HKPS instead of SC?

讓我搭咀一下...

仔仔當年在HKPS讀N1, 校長老師姨姨非常好, 而學校對照顧和培育小朋友方面亦令我們非常滿意.  當初決定是否轉去SC想到頭都大.  最後, 因為SC有outdoor playground, 而且名氣較大, 所以轉校了, 當時十分不捨得.  仔仔今年在SC K3畢業.

就個人意見, SC因為是大校, 課程各樣等都較systematic,   老師有經驗豐富亦有較年輕的, 但相對沒有那麼"貼身" (請不要誤會, 他們對小朋友的照顧是很好的, 只是不會像"細校"般每人都互相認識).  課程方面十分平均, 除了語文方面, 亦十分著重常識教育, 亦有很多的學習活動(有參觀, project, 不同形式類型的工作紙/活動), 非常生動有趣.  補充一點小朋友參加校外比賽是由父母自己安排的, 校內老師不會提供指導 (有些學校是由學校挑選及訓練小朋友出賽的, 但我不清楚HKPS 的情況)  

個人覺得兩間學校風格都著重培育小朋友較"活"及自信. 兩間都很不錯, 今年妹妹亦將入讀SC K1.  經過去年考小一的經驗, 愚見是只靠學校一定不足夠, 父母亦必須下功夫.  而考到什麼小學亦與小朋友的個性和運氣有點關係.  我碰見數個從前HKPS 的朋友仔, 都考到不錯的直資/私校.  反之, 數個仔仔SC 的同學是不幸沒有offer在手的.     

有一句說得好, 我們是找最合適小朋友的學校, 不是最好的.

"上面有人話K2/K3要share班房" ???如果我無分析錯,應該係甘:N班 & K1的學生,年齡較細,學校比佢地用超級巨無霸班房,等K2 / K3時,將超級巨無霸班房的中間木板打開,成為兩間好正常的班房比佢地上課,如果真是如此,這不是叫做SHARE班房,而應該叫做N班及K1班的小朋友(人仔細細霸兩間班房上課才對),如樓主好想知我的分析是否對,可打電話去HKPS問下啦~~
其實看了樓主的心大心細,我都好明白當中的煩惱!!!我份人對自己的要求好高,本應打算一年轉一次學校,只要該學校一間比一間出名就一定轉,為的是讓小朋友入好的小學.後來好多朋友及網友建議我唔好,會出事......所以我最後選擇了問仔仔意見!年齡雖小,不過已經很有主見,幸好他說喜歡HKPS多過XXXXXX等等學校!!甘我就放心比佢返HKPS了.前後我都放棄了幾間9龍塘學校!!選擇一間近我屋企的.當然我K2都會考CCKG,為的是自己,向自己有個交代!如果不收,不用自找煩惱,如果收了,我一樣會煩死,不過最後都會問仔仔的想法!!!由他來決定!!!畢竟幼稚園與升小無直接關係,又不會學壞,只要小朋友開心,學校又教到野,言語又學到,老師有愛心,我還可以要求D咩呢???

yes, I think you better call & ask the KG directly.  My case is when HKPS call me, they offer us K1 p.m. class.  The teacher said all the N1 student choose to continue K1, so originally no K1 seat available this year.  But in view that many parent request for K1 seat, and their K3 p.m. class has only student for half class, so, the school open a K1 p.m. class., which need to share the same classroom with K3. I have asked to the teacher  whether this would be very noisy & kids can't concentrate. The teacher said just imagine you are taking small groups. The teacher here may be teaching Eng, while another gp is teaching another thing over there.  I think this might not be the case for am class, otherwise, the teacher will told you. Remember that during the short tel conversation, the teacher has emphasis twice that need to share class room. They are trying to make sure we understand the situation b4 we make our decision.

You are right.  That was what the teacher say when they called the waiting list in mid-June.

However, one of my friends (who accepted the PM offer in HKPS) have successfully changed to AM class last week.

This may be the rule of the game : you have to accept their offer of PM class first.  Once the am places are available, they will fulfill yr request.  but of course, you may take the risk that the request (pm to am) can never be fulfilled.

6月尾我都收到 HKPS call, 老師話那班K1會同K3 share 同一班房, 每組15人, 上課同K1的其他班別沒有分別, 因為上堂都係小組上堂的, 整班(30人)一齊活動的時間只有茶點時間。會有3位班主任(廣東話, 普通話, 英語)。

另外就係K1 會係三語班, K2開始全級都會轉國際班。 希望我無理解錯。

最後我都揀左HKPS。

Recapped again that my 'right' = 'My case is when HKPS call me, they offer us K1 p.m. class.  The teacher said all the N1 student choose to continue K1, so originally no K1 seat available this year.  But in view that many parent request for K1 seat, and their K3 p.m. class has only student for half class, so, the school open a K1 p.m. class., which need to share the same classroom with K3.' only.
