SFA VS St. Paul boys 你地會揀邊個？

KikiDaddy

I can't think of any school in Kowloon other than APS has better secondary school allocation than SFA.

In fact, more than 50% (boys + girls) of the SFA students can get a place in Band 1a and 1b schools while St. Paul Boy just belongs to Band 1c.

Of course, such banding is purely based on academic results. St. Paul Boy has its own history and tradition that most of the new Band one schools can't match.

你的理解正確, 考得前的sfa生, 都有些會插入其他through-train名校.  p6派位都有80% brand1, 仲算不好 ?

KikiDaddy

thru train schools are attractive but we still need to consider the academic standard. hence, the schools my son applied for are in following priority order: -

1. DBS
2. APS
3. SFA
4. YWS
5. KTS
6. KRS

we only focus on schools in KLN as we live in Kwun Tong.

2009-2011 means the two academic years for P5&P6. Hence, the year before is 2008-2010.

係，但APS個result係2009-2011;唔知點解佢啲report都係兩年嘅；其實九龍好似SFA派位咁好嘅小學真係得APS 同KTS;但SFA就係以往一直都咁好。

KikiDaddy

I'll rank it the same as YWS.

Academic result is just one of the factors to consider. SPB has its own strengths like a strong historical background and a well established alumni network.

Some of the good teachers left DBPS and joined DBSPD when it was set up. This is one of the reason for the deterioration of its standard. In fact, DBPS' secondary school allocation in the past few years is not impressive except for the 10 seats from DBS.

I totally agree with you there is a definite advantage of a thru train school. However, even DBS and LS have around 20% students can't get 14 marks in HKCEE each year. Not to mention those second tier schools. Hence, it's
very important to have solid academic training at primary school stage. This is just my own opinion and all parents have their own right (and responsibility) to choose the appropriate schools for their kids.

DBPS is so attractive because it has a famous and long history secondary school. If DBPS is on its own without secondary school, it is just a regular primary school. In the end of the day, everyone is ...

Of course there are many cases like your friends' but the kids need to do extremely well in their schools and get excellent results in public exam before they can enroll in top tier overseas university.

In the past decade, I believe LS and St. Jo have the best public examination results among the secondary schools in HK. They are not thru train schools. Only 70% of the feeder school students can get a place in the secondary school. Competition among the students are intensive. Students need to work very hard to get a guaranteed place in the secondary school. I think it is the students' hard work at primary school that lay a good foundation for their excellent academic results in HKCEE.

Where did you get such information or is it just your own guess?

well I think that most SPB boys went to prestigious schools in UK and US, like Eton College, Oxbridge etc, which obviously are better and higher ranking than those in Hong Kong

KikiDaddy

Well said!

It very much depends on how high you aiming at.

St. Paul's Boy for sure is a good school with long history. If its Secondary School already satisfied you, then of course St. Paul's Boy, as you no nee ...
