Even if SPCC has the cream of cream students, does it guarantee that it is a cream of crea ...

It does not guarantee, but it has the biggest advantage.   It's much much easier to produce excellent products when the raw materials are of top grades.

Yes, it has the biggest advantage. I think QC, BPS, DGS, DBS,, to name a few would have such biggest advantage. Why SPCC is the cream of the cream but not QC, BPS, DGS, DBS etc?

I don't agree that DGS and DBS are not cream of the cream too.    QC and BPS both have 70% uncontrollable student inputs.

Unless I am wrong in understanding "cream of cream" which means the "best".Please correct me if I am wrong in my understanding.

QC and BPS are government schools. Although they are feeder schools for some government primary schools, the students entering into these 2 schools are also the best cohort of the same age group.

The cream of something means "the best of a particular group of things or people".

Cream of the cream means "the very best"

To me, cream of the cream means "the best of the best".

匹夫无罪，怀璧其罪
此成语出自《春秋左传-桓公十年》。原指财能致祸，后也比喻有才能而遭受忌妒和迫害。
《春秋左传-桓公十年》：“初，虞叔有玉，虞公求旃。弗献。既而悔之，曰：‘周谚有之：匹夫无罪，怀璧其罪。吾焉用此，其以贾害也？’乃献之。又求其宝剑。叔曰：‘是无厌也。无厌，将及我。’遂伐虞公。故虞公出奔共池。”

Yes, SPCC has been the cream of the cream....but cream of the crop always come from other schools like QC, SMCC, 聖言，培正 this year!

Since Spcc or other DSS'S didn't hurt anyone,nor did thier parents, teachers and students, my humble idea is :
Their outstanding results now n ever didn't deserve the  harsh comments here.
Take note if there is any positive comment for our failure.
Please excuse my poor expression.
With Google Search, you may find a better Look of IT.
Pls be mercy to my English.
May I salute to the brillant results of schools of all kinds of disciplines.

Thank you for your sharing of the quote.I have no kids to study in SPCC, QC, DGS, DBS or BPS yet I respect each of them as they are famous and respectable schools in Hong Kong and produced tons of leaders in different fields. I have strong interest in comparing different schools and education system in Hong Kong. That is why I want explore from different objective standards to see why SPCC is the cream of the cream.

Your ideas are also my ideas.

Our discussion should be based on facts and figures and should not have any harsh comment on any school.

I appreciate your fair comment. I know you are one of the fathers/mothers of SPCC's students after I read through a SPCC thread in another section. However, I believe you are not the kind of people as what I have described before.
