Agreed!

After the interview, my C6 ranked this school from No.3 to No.1!!! But also have the same concern that the school lacks open area for kids....

thomasha

The interviewer mentioned there would be quite considerable homework to do for students of the school.

傳統教學, 功課多, 我問過啲大使, 每班有成35人一班添, 都好competitive吓, 要有心理準備呢

有冇人知佢地收生準則係乜? 好似in得好快, 好簡單咁, in小朋友得個十令分鐘, 可以點衡量收定唔收呢? thx

thomasha

Your child has some very good qualities.  Congratulations for raising such a good child!

Parents need to be the child's primary communication channel when he/she has any grievances or pressure.  We need to create an environment where the child feels secure to share their feelings.  We should not remove all the sources of pressure from the child because sooner or later he/she will have to learn how to handle it.  (Cf. lack of ability to tackle pressure for many teenagers these days.) Some pressure can be a motivation for child, if the parents can guide the child properly.

It would be nice if this question was asked before the interview.

Parents' answers also count in their score, according to the interviewer.

As the questions asked to the children seem quite straight-forward and almost every child played puzzle, I suppose the child's responsiveness and the quality of his/her answers as well as ability to cooperate with peers would be important factors to consider as far as children's performance is concerned.

Just my 2 cents based on my short stay (45 minutes) there and some common sense.

Hi Thomasha

好似我小朋友in个d學校, 你都有in咁... 個個topics都見到你... haha.... thx for your advice...

請問你見了幾多間? 同埋有幾多間有回覆? 我小朋友就.....

thomasha

Just 8 schools.  I didn't apply for some of the schools with topics on BK, but these topics have some general parenting issues for me to "blow water" la.

I have already mentioned my son's current results in one of the topics.  I'll let you find out yourself. :D

多謝你讚佢, 事實上, 我還不太確定應幫佢走邊種教學模式(活動 or 傳統). 不過, 你講得都好有道理, 適當既壓力係要有.  唯有放鬆 d 面對......

thomasha

Not too many la...considering:

(1) one of my friends applied for 15 schools last year
(2) we don't have any secured place in any schools as my son is an only child, I am not a graduate of any DSS/private schools, and we refused to gain undeserved marks on the discretionary stage (e.g. baptism)

I still don't feel comfortable on having a place from one of these schools after all.  We only have 5 remaining chances.  

Quality (of performance in interviews) counts, not quantity (number of schools applied for).  The larger number of schools applied for probably only give us a psychological effect on the likelihood of having a place.

We also applied 8 DSS/Private schools.  I think that is not too much.  She did not resist, and mostly enjoys these interviews, so far.

Last year in our school, a boy apply 8 primary schools.  He got unacceptable letters from SPCC, Stephen Stanley, HKUGA, St paul boys. However, he was accepted by DBSPD.  So I am thinking quantity is better than quality in this game!
Don't feel frustrated.  Good parents will get rewards as you said! Add oil.
