Marymount 瑪利曼

smsss

Agreed, and as far as I know, children studying in SFA with good results will change to e.g. DG, DB, Maryknoll, Marymount, La Salle etc...But I've never heard of anyone studying in Marymount change to SFA.

中文 is very important.......please don't think that 中文 is not as important as English.  Alot of my US & Europe's clients are learning chinese because they told me that China has more potential than their countries!!

冇話中文唔重要，所有傳統學校既中、英、數都係主科，不過如果小朋友讀嗰間學校係英文小學，大部份科目用英語教授，咁英文較強係好正常，中文又唔會差到溝通唔到。If u think that Chinese is soooo important then u better choose a 中小& 中中for yr kid. On the contrary someone may really can't even hold a simple conversation with foreigner if his/her English is very poor.

SFA 應該比較谷喎, 教得又深
我識有家長因頂唔住 SFA功課, 插班入 LaSalle
MPS 又相對輕鬆, 插班入 SFA有d難度~~~

聖心 (私立部) ~~~

Actually I think both are good schools, but when compared of course Marymount is much better.

And I don't think Marymount girls will go to SFA?

But please don't think that MPS is so relax that you can release yourselves from your kids' school life. On the contrary, the parents of MPS students might need to closely monitor the progress of your kids and take certain remedies when necessary.

In MPS, it depends much on the parents not the school.

Hi leeleelumlum,

想請教你，小女今年有幸插班入了瑪利曼，成績尚好也暫無須補習，因小女上堂很留心，但如你所說我有些擔心，是否很多東西學校不教又expect小朋友識 ，咁大家就要自己去補習？

It is true that MPS 's English standard is high, but their HKCEE exams in terms of scoring A grades are pretty low.

Its Blue blood name, which to me only equates to pupils from the Rich Circle, and this situation more or less is for the past, given a high proportion of candidates are from the allocation system.

If your girl actually has been a very attentive person, then your burden would not be so heavy. MPS would not push the girls too much, but the parents would do so. It does not mean that the teachers of MPS would not teach but test only.

Pardon me, I do not quite agree with you. The standard of MPS and MSS is relatively high, also their students are very smart and presentable. Not just the blue blood name....

May I know where did you get these information, as far as I heard, Marymount is strong academically and in ECAs and quite blue-blooded even for nowadays. For example, my friend's daughterwas in the same class as Dr. Stanley Ho's daughter .

smsss

Thank you so much leeleelumlum.

VincentL

Very simple, MPS did not produce a single 10A students for the past ten years. If your conclusion is  drawn mainly based on Stanley's Ho daughter was studying there, then there is nothing too much I can say.

But as I said before the School's  English standard is really high

VincentL

Perhaps u hear me wrong, I never say MPS is not good and their students are not presentable. But its academic record can not be compared to SPPC, DGS, QC, St Joseph, etc or put it in another way, it is more like a hybrid of Local and international school.

smsss

Very true no 10A fm MSS but in general their academic results are good, and the school train up all MPS and MSS students to be all-rounded and confident.
You can sat that no 10A means not good, but if a school produce one or two students with 10A but the rest are with zero credit, does this school very good?

VincentL

If you are a parent of MSS, I think you should already know they dun have too many 6A students also, and the alumni are only some Singers ( please do a wikipedia search and do a comparison on DGS, SPPC, St .Joseph, QC, etc )

VincentL

Agreed, and I think MPS or MSS is particularly suitable for parents who intend to send their daughters to study abroad.

And more importantly, I think at end of the day, it is the own effort of the student that really matters, a good school only provides a better environment, and a red-blooded student can not become a blue-blooded student by attending a blue-blooded school.  So when choosing a school for the kid , it is like choosing a wife , we should pick the one which is most appropriate to us, rather than  blindly go for the most pretty and richest woman
