選讀拔萃女小學,還是讀瑪利諾修院小學

lawsonmoon

Sorry 版主, 之前有D reply 可能離了題。但here不是太多人直接回答你的問題，因為這些人生大事, 冇人夠胆同你拿主意。你自己的financial status也只有你自己最清楚。其實兩間都已經係better than average既schools了。我反宜想問你是想她們在HK or 外國讀大學？如果在HK, 兩間都可以；如果到外國, 最好save多些錢。

另外I feel HK有D家長的思為停留在20-30年前，以下有些sharing, 共勉之：

"我朋友有一對twins舊年會考, 哥哥入了李寶椿、妹妹入了恆商；過年很多親戚靜靜雞同佢地媽咪講、點解佢地咁心散唔讀書，攪到要去新界讀預科；佢地媽咪唔好意思笑、只說佢地盡了力就ok嗱^.^"

"
李寶椿聯合世界書院 or st paul co-ed邊間好?
9A,10A既students not necessary入到李寶椿，人地行IB, 要面試的；好多畢業生是入哈佛、劍橋的。反過來一些行IB的 international schools, 佢地IB試高分的學生考HKCEE也不一定拿到很多A。"

「朱幼麟係報章話HK會考和教育係港英設計去訓練一些只需懂follow orders 去執行的人、冇critical thinking 既人一樣可拿高分。港英時代請本地政務官只會請本地大學生, 從不請劍橋、牛津回來的。資深的演奏家係唔係可以做到出色指揮家?
其實係兩類人囉。」

"所以可以自己思考一吓:
會考叻 = 學校叻?
點解會考課程要轉去較像IB的新高中課程?"

考到拔萃女小學,你會因為有一個細妹而要女兒讀瑪利諾修院小學嗎?

如果選讀瑪利諾修院小學, 如何向大女兒交代??

所以中大校長的囡囡都係女拔, 仲係會考狀元, 佢都寧願唔拔尖, 都要考入李實椿讀預科.

The result-oriented culture in the local system can drive people crazy. Supporters of the existing system call it healthy competition.
May be the female lawyer from Maryknoll had been driven mad well before she left school.
May be she stole because she needed attention.
Is she still unmarried at 46 years old?
If so, what she needs is medical help, not imprisonment.

阿女都有考starter,考小學時只係寫話有讀，並未能及時申報成績。

不過，女兒在starter的學習中，有日開心亦有唔開心，是一個過程，同時囡囡的確是學到知識，我認為小朋友願意就ok啦，小朋友都會想挑戰一下自己，囡囡現在自己要求學movers。話要升班。

我想IB就一定好的嗎？不在IB制度下學習就在思維方面一定比較差嗎？我未深入研究過，致於會否出外讀書，言之尚早。暫時只考慮選小學的問題。

家長接受提交地址証明，是因為明白我們考的是私校，我比較更不喜歡那些強迫學生驗毒的國際學校，外國有行就一定好嗎?其實我們家長係可以選唔考又或者唔讀，當然考的話就要接受俾囝囡檢毒。

每個制度都有他出現的原因，只是我們不了解當中理由，估估下。以地址選學生？就算有都唔會好多，會有很多人報假地址嗎？都係唔會好多。我有認識住港島二三千呎的有錢人囡囡考不上女拔，但亦有認識住德福的普通中產今年考上了。

現時，有人告訴我女拔是很開心的學校，亦有人說競爭很大，不知有沒有女兒正在女拔讀書的家長可以分享一下現實，估估下那就跟我一樣，都係估。先謝謝各位。

慢熱或唔識show off的小朋友interview都會蝕低d. 就算叻也表達唔到.

學校我只替子女選天主教的·

ysnmama

同意. 如果孩子表現拘謹緊張, 表達能力不高, 性格害羞及內歛. 真的可以結果很差.

我所認識在考小學成績理想的孩子. 大部份也是表達能力不錯又多言及主動的孩子.

如果是被動的, 問一句答一句. 驚驚青青的, 太乖巧, 真的如何叻. 也會被遺忘, 很難去突出自己.  唯有靠日後在適合他們的學校裡去發揮潛能.

其實新高中課程就類似港版IB了。以下是一位老師的posting:

"本人任教中學，深深明白NSS跟舊日的HKCEE及HKAL是完完全全的兩回事，如果有人硬要拿舊日的會考成績來估計將來新高中的成績，只顯得這些人如何無知。

NSS的遊戲規則跟舊日會考根本不能相提並論，至少，舊日一般人認為很重要的Phy, Chem, Bio, Econ, Geog, Hist 等等，這些科目到了NSS已顯得次要得多。NSS要看的是中、英、數、通，「數」還要是比舊日更深更要求啓發性思考的數學，諸位認為填鴨式考試操練還管用嗎？"

再想想why they need to change to 新高中課程????

我是廿幾年前DBS畢業的，那個年代我們可以讀左十幾年書而未做過group projects, public speaking, essay-like documents etc.，但會考可拿8、9個A。但上到研究院級數HK學生就現型了!

再看看在國際上有成就的HK人:
璀琦
高錕
貝聿銘
徐立之
Vivienne Tam etc

會考都沒太多A；我們認識的9A生最叻做到咩? 高官、AO? 會考係唔係identify到叻人?

英文有句諺語: "Don't argue with success"

IB 係大勢所(吹), 男拔& SP Co-ed都有開班收生,  所以中大校長的囡囡都係女拔, 仲係會考狀元, 佢都寧願唔拔尖, 都要考入李實椿讀預科. 雖然考得叻係未必收, 但係考得差亦都唔會收. 真係成績好時仲要all-rounded !

To me, 'education' is really or simply being used as a way to select the 'best' and then distribute their talents to better develop a society. It is a more commonly accepted tool or a faily valued way that the government or the management from private sectors adopted to select their successors among our younger generation.

For those in the age group ranging from 35 to 50 years old (like me), what we have been witnessing is the constant changes shaping and reshaping HK society and the people's traditional 'values' regarding education.

What we used to value the most or highly regarded have suddenly become obsolete or a burden of the society, like R&D. This can be easily seen from the trend in the payscale in various occupations. Take 'lecturers' for an example, their pay started somewhere from the $40k during the early '90s. After 21 years, the same position is actually paid less today. On the contrary, if one joined a multi-national financial instutition, the pay could have been risen by few times over the same period. Ironically, I know a lot of my friends who are graduates from the top unversities like MIT, Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, Stanford, Beijing U and TsinghuaU, etc (really being the top of the tops in their subject areas) almost all ended up joining investment banks (doing IPOs, Derivatives, Trading, etc) and consulting firms. Some of them were even doing medical or law degrees at univeristy. Really none of them are doing academic research indeed. In my opinion, this is what has caused the shift in our value system that leads to the changes in our expectation on 'Education'. Nowadays, a lot of them regrettably thought that they might have made a wrong choice because the best time in financial industries have been all over. Does it imply that people will need to re-value what they are thinking good today might become obsolete in 20 years when their kids grow up?.... I better stop here before running away too far.....
