請問你地係在咩情況下決定到海外升學

fatcarol

請問你地係在咩情況下決定到海外升學 我個女15歲,讀英中 中四現行334新學制 修歷史地理音樂 請問將來會有咩出路呢?

我睇她現有的成績好難在港入讀香港嘅大學 因為成績麻麻 時常用电腦 追明星

如到海外升讀寄宿學校 會否啓發佢讀書的興趣同專注啲讀書比較好呢?起馬英文好Ｄ

如現在到英國讀中四至中六三年 再回港考大學可行嗎?
因還有二個弟弟跟尾 而我並非公務員

現去英國讀約HK$300,000一年, 在港讀中学免費
還是讓她到中六考唔到大學先去外國讀呢?我又怕到時她不肯去讀

請大家給我意見 thank

我o既情況係睇小朋友考唔考到好學校, 若然考到o既學校比香港還要好, 我會送佢哋出國.

做咩我係度講廢話  

我係根據以下:
1-錢唔係問題
2-阿女係自願
3-阿女係讀書材料
4-阿女係能夠照顧自己
5-阿女唔係逃避香港讀書辛苦or考試失敗
6-阿女係有目標地考到佢心中既學校而且比香港好
7-做阿媽的我對佢有100%信心佢係能夠完成學業返哩
8-唔好問返哩有咩出路, 按她的興趣去讀 ...

Me too.

Postgraduate may be overseas. This is the best value for money approach.

Assume in UK
F4-F7              HK$ 300k * 4  =HK$ 1,200k
Undergraduate HK$ 500k * 3  = HK$ 1,500k
Postgraduate   HK$ 500k        = HK$   500k
                                                 HK$ 3,200k

In HK
F4-F6              HK$ 100k * 3  =HK$   300k
Undergraduate HK$ 100k * 4  = HK$  400k
Postgraduate   HK$ 500k        = HK$  500k
                                                 HK$ 1,200k

May be controversal here, I don't mind to give him 10~20% of the total saving as incentive if he can study in Big3 in HK.

一年300k 既預算可能會偏低.
而家一般中學要 gbp7500-9500
兌換率12,最少都要90k一學期,一年學費要 270k

而假期回港機票,就要13000一張.即使留係英國, host family 既費用都好接近.仲有監護人費.所以以350k-400k 計會保守d.

Your info are generally valid. But some of my friends' kids the expenses less than HK$200k.  

If other parents play safe, can use your cost in high school for budgeting purpose.

完全同意。我認識好多人以為到英國讀書是入大學靈丹。亦有更多人把懶散和行為有問題的孩子送走，以為子女會自己學好。點知子女只是入了「學店」。成群有問題的小孩「衰埋一堆」。父母耗盡積蓄，子女不但讀書不成，與父母關係疏離，更染上影響一生的不良嗜好。

我個人以為，如果不是TOP　
ＳＣＨＯＯＬ，不去也吧。

Can you recommend which public schools are within budget of less than $200k boarding and school fees with ranking less than 200?

agree, 如果孩子行為有問題, 更不應該把他們送走, 寧可把他們留在身邊教導, 因為, 若孩子懶散, 能入讀名次較前的學校機會不大, 反之, 就只能入讀一些學店, 學校管束亦較鬆散, 到時, 小孩子就跟斷線風箏一樣, 想收都收唔番了. 留在父母身邊, 起碼可跟眼.

pls PM me as well.

BTW, anybody hear abt the following :

if you have a flat in UK for 3 yrs + your kid is holding UK passport, then your kid is entitle to become local student when he / she get into University.

Questions :
1. UK passport is included 居英權?
2. Is that really true to entitle to pay local fees?

係呀, 而家好多都過GBP9000一個term, 一年就要GBP27000, 每年6套機票, 就算唔返香港住host family都差唔多.

首先，希望ANCHAN pm me also.

另外，如果你有British passport, not BNO,應該是有居英權。但有居英權，子女可免費入讀state school,如果是boarding, 就只pay boarding fee. 但入university要pay local student fee，就要在當地有permanent address 和pay tax for at least 3 years.

You are right, my friend and I have 居英權，only need to pay boarding fee and misc fees. I will ask him this weekend of the school name.

I bought a house in Cambridge and need to pay tax for at least for three years. I rent out the house and make some profit vs the mortgage, so I need to pay some tax.

CPU1995

Thx in advance. I need information on public schools.

For state schools, they request my son to jump the class. I don't think it is appropriate for my son and they do not offer weekend boarding facilities.

Apart from Cochester Royal Grammar School, can you also recommend other excellent state schools for Grade 12 or below which are comparable to public schools with rankings within 200?

mummy911

oh....may I ask

1. the diff btwn boarding fee  & normal fee. Say for full boarding is $8000, day girl is $5000, then if I have 居英權，I only need to pay the diff, i.e. $3000? or still need to pay $8000?

2. Is it easy to rent a house out in UK? So you only pay tax for profit part will do.  Then you can enjoy the local fees after 3 yrs, right? That for secondary school & U also? Pls calrify. Many thanks.

1) full boarding $8000 (per term)應該是私校，有居英權都要交全費的。公立學校不用交學費，只交宿費，但很少公校有宿位。

1. Though state schools do not require to pay school fee, the academic standard are much lower for state schools than public schools not mentioning the facilities. And there are only 32 state schools with boarding facilities. For top state schools, they adopt strict rules for age requirement for entry. HK student is one year older than Uk student and so HK student must jump one form.  

2. My friend said that some top U must require the 3-year residence and national security number proof for the parent, not taking account whether you pay 3 years tax or not.  For average U, some may take relaxer requirement for counting 3-year residence for parent and even take GCE A Level Chinese as core subject for admission to science subject. So it is not 100% guarantee for paying local rate even the parents have paid UK tax for 3 years.
