If really have a seat, $$$ not an issue.....

Both are good schools, in terms of academic results and achievements, they are comparable as some DBS boys are not good in studying, so even average HKCEE exam results not very attractive among elite schools like DGS and SPCC. But the top boys generally more all-rounded and their exam results even better than LW.

In terms of non-academic achievements like music and sports, DBS wins LW miles away.

DBS boys more independent, presentable and high self-confidence. Their brotherhood, network and DBS tradition are phenomenonal. E.g. in the University Day, more than 50+ old boys from different countries and universities come back to share their admission experience and university life with their juniors.

My son is in DBS.

I also mention some weaknesses of DBS.
1. In terms of teaching, I guess LW may be better than DBS. No matter teachers are good or bad in teaching, some boys in DBS have tutors follow their studies. Not every kid in DBS needs tuition.

2. As DBS is in MK, the boys are 1-2 years more mature and or street-smart compared with other boys in other districts, this may be weakness or strength.

3. They are too liberal in the school, cultivate their boys more agressive and arrogant. They are allowed to challenge perfects, teachers and even principal with grounds. Sometimes, they embrassed external speakers who make speeches in their assembly.

AnChan 59.
多謝你的意見.
我兒子在DBSPD 就讀. 基於一條龍. 並设有担心升到中學DBS. 但我兒生個子矮小, 常在校被蝦. 老師不管.學校根本不理, 所以產生離開念頭.
全家常常感到不快, 不是每個人都適合讀名校 !
是真實個按, 任人都可信, 但請勿ATTACK 我.

In your case, you should complain to the headteacher in primary school and or above like Terrence Chang.

Also, understand the reason on top of physical size of your boy, any more reason?

Why I say so?

My son's EQ in the past was extremely low (He is not from DBSPD), anything happened he cried. Other boys used that as his hot button, made him cry was their fun time. After understand the real cause, just addressed his EQ issue, no more problem.

Your son may not the same case, just exchange ideas.

"夠進取" What it means??
"不是想像中咁好架炸！" What's the shortcomings? I want to know the expectation gaps.
Did your boy study in DBSDP and changed to LW? What's the outcome? Glad to know you can find a school fit his style, not every kid fit elite school.

AnChan59,

其中一個原因就係好多小孩( 不是一、两個 ), 常常喜愛"扇"動別人來蝦我兒. 我親眼見. 我常感到自由是好, 但如學校一D紀律都無就係問題 !

我聽講優才幾好但我離校很遠,
請各家長對於優才發表意見.走去優才,留
DBS ?
我好担到中學情況會更差.

Hi, csonliuson2000,

I  agree with ANChan59's comments and do feel that you should talk to your son's class teacher or even the headmistress seriously and find out the real cause.

My son is studying in DBS.  He is not from DBSPD but most of his classmates are.  I find them nice, polite and helpful.  They are academically very good as well.

csonliuson2000

Goodmum97,

Glad to learn that some boys in DGS are polite and helpful. No doubt that boys are smart and the results in lessons are good.

My concern is still the disciplines !

ANChan59

Per your comment and observation, you may not know your son's behaviour when you are not there.

I am not pin point your son may have some problem you don't know, give up the chance too soon may force him to be a loser and affect his self-esteem in medium term.

My son also shared with me that If he has one area (Academic, sports or music) is best of the best, he will be fine.

DPS 小拔 (拔萃小學) - SS
DBSPD 拔小 (拔萃男書院小學部) - DSS

如果樓主係講緊DBSPD, 咁希望可以考慮清楚, 放棄一間咁全面, 咁好既學校係要做事先的衡量 和評估. 校園係一個小社會, 當中既人際關係亦係小朋友在離開父母的懷抱後和踏足社會前的一個重要課程, 家長需要嘗試放手比佢地自己處理, 為什麼老師唔理呢? 會唔會佢地都係想比佢地自己處理.
我以前讀女校, d 女仔小圈子行為更討厭, 又無厘頭咁玩針對. 有時自己都唔知衰乜. 我咪一 樣自己解决到.
我地家長要做一個輔導角色, 而唔係保護角色. 不斷用逃避既方法, 只會令佢將來更不會面對任何困難.
當然問題己經去到很嚴重另計. 自己再諗清楚吧.

Astroboy,

"我以前讀女校, d 女仔小圈子行為更討厭, 又無厘頭咁玩針對. 有時自己都唔知衰乜".

I certainly agree with the above statement. I understand that a shool is a small society. He has to face it himself. Let's him handle it. Tell you all truely I have faced this problem for several years NOT the first year. Every year I hope it would be better this year but the fact is NOT. So it bother me SEVERAL YEARS.

Agree DBSPD has a good reputation. I seldom read any comments. ( No matter good or bad from parents in DBSPD ) True reasons may be most of them find it good, the one who does not match has left already. Seldom people like me still thinking for several years !

ANChan59

I understand your struggles for many years.

Pls ask your boy the following foundamental questions:

1. Do you like the school?
2. Do you want a change?

My son sometimes also complained about the travelling every day, too much homework in Pre-IB, classmates stole his phones, notes, books etc.....

I asked him Q1 & Q2, his answer was "Yes" and "No" respectively, as a father, I don't bother much. If not, we will do something together, like change to other school, withdraw from the elite school is not an issue for me.
