st. joseph's 定spcc?

St. Joe 啦!  唔駛錢，又係好學校!

都係一年啫，咁無論將來有冇細佬妹，或將來佢生嘅仔或女，都係related, 比其他人多機會讀這學校，更不用說他所接受的優質一條龍教學，做大仔所訓練到的領導才能，如果收嘅話，唔使唸啦！

我都係覺得揀St. Joe 化算D，一嚟都係好學校，二嚟慳返學費，可以更加善用資源，簡單計由小一至中六慳返72萬！三嚟直覺覺得St. Joe環境單純D，Spcc 家長群背景咁勁，對我呢D平民百姓嚟講太複雜囉，況且近幾年St. Joe 出唔少狀元，成績好好呢！

一定SPCC, 以收番全部直屬小學學生, 中學唔駛煩多次

St. Joe環境, 家長背景比較複雜, 始終派入去, 乜人都有。 SPCC 無論家長背景, 小朋友程度, 升中派位比較有保証, 至於學校環境, St. Joe 真係無得比, 因為St. Joe 真係太細

St Jo has 75 places for discretionary allocation which is 50% of 150 places, the other 50% (75 places) is for central allocation.  

First round discretionary allocation: (a) 30% of 150 (=45) is for kids with sibling or parents working at the school. If they have more than 30% than they will take places from central allocation to provide places for these kids (then there will be less than 50% for the central allocation). If they have less than 30% then they will give these places for counting points. (b) 20% of the places (= 30) are for point system, most first born will have 15pts, +5 for old boys/girls, +5 for church members.

SO...
1) Can they fill up all the 45 places for siblings & parents at the same school?? I would think so, but that's my guess.
2) How many are old boys and same church = 25pts (not counting siblings and parents at the school)??
3) If there are less than 30 applicants with 25 pts, then the 20 pts ones will have a chance... if there are more than 30 applicants with 25pts (then there won't be room for 20 pts applicants) and they have to do a lucky draw within the 25pts applicants.

ps. I have heard that someone with 25 pts cannot get into DPS... so, 25 pts is not a sure win. But of course for DPS, there are less places for allocation and it is a coed school now, therefore it's situation might not reflect the other bigger schools.

I will choose St. Joe. I don't think everyone should wear or like Rolex when Seiko is already good enough.

I really like St. Joe！

Chanel vs. LV may be a more appropriate comparison!! . Anyway, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Average academic results must be SPCC.

Great school and also through-train. nearly 100% promote to secondary school.

Add up 12 years school fee may only afford to send our kids to study overseas university for one year in the future. Also, SPCC has the most generous remission scheme, many students get remission and scholarship.

I think if this boy got 25 points in SJPS, his father must be a St. Joe old boy and this family is catholic.  There is no doubt that the boy and his family fit better with SJPS.  

Meanwhile, St. Joe's old boys are very loyal to their alma mater.   If the father can decide the choice, there is almost no doubt that he will choose SJPS for his son.  But of course, the mother may have different preferences.

朋友個仔有25分入梗st. joseph's,但係佢spcc有2nd in,當時校長不經意同小朋友講咗句"開學見!",應該都入梗!

佢問我意見点簡,大家点睇?

cutekiddy

You are right!  That's why the kid's mother asked for my opinion about this.

It's because I was once that kind of mom....... Now, my son is another St. Joe boy following his father, uncles and grandfather.

wow... you gave up SPCC before and I believe it was really a difficult decision.

PMma

No!!  My son didn't even have the chance to have second interview with SPCC.  We had the pleasure of having headmistress Lee interviewing my son in the first interview.  But according to my son, he strictly said "NO" to Headmistress Lee when he was asked whether he likes this school (SPCC) and wants to study here .......

In my previous messages written, I was just saying that I was also once being a mom with catholic background, whose husband is an SJ old boy, and having a son applying P1.

I personally have no preference towards either of these two schools.   I myself (and my sibilings too) didn't graduate from any prestigious primary schools; but we could achieve very high education and master in our own professions.  On the contrary, I can see many of the graduates of these prestigious schools are just ordinary people in the society after grown up.   

Being admitted to any prestigious famous schools or not means little in the long path of life!

Not a good metaphor at all, I know some people they simply  don't  like Rolex at all although they can afford to have one or several. Who cares LV or Rolex..

It's true. My husband is an old boy from SJC. He 100% wants his son to be graduated from St Joe too.
