Heard that the second round interview only started yesterday and will last till at least 6/11. Can anyone confirm whether the understanding is correct?

算把啦, 太太是教友, 成個團契淨係佢無揾牧師寫信, 咁多仔女入面不巧淨係我個仔無2nd in offer.

何其巧合, ...

其實考co-ed最重要唔係小朋友interview表現或佢地個portfolio ,而係父母background或關係。父母係舊生、教友、上市公司CEO或董事、醫生、律師、名人or成功人士或有强大後台機會大好多。以上係從身邊朋友observed 得出的結論。所以父母portfolio 緊要D。

你錯了，我以前都以為係，但實際上有6成以上學生來自普通家庭。

普通家庭包唔包括舊生，或相同宗教背景？

LYLYTH

我地都係普通家庭，唔係咩專業人士，無任何宗教背景，亦無人事關係，但都有幸入圍，所以我相信學校主要係睇學生表現及他的portfolio是否適合該校

同意你講，我正正有朋友是你講的一類，父母是教徒，爸爸任高職，小孩普通，不是聰明伶俐一類，媽媽也説小孩 ...

我想＂有人事、好辦事＂的情況一定有，但小孩將來的造化發展還不是要靠自己？你舉例中的小孩如真入了，他爸媽之後要付出的力氣，是不難想象的。

老實講，舊生的家庭環境比較好因父母多為專業人事。學校好識撰人，來自普通家庭的多數好讀得書。甚麼宗教的都有。我認為小朋友面試表現是最主要的。話就話唔收多過7成有關係的，但過往我見佢地收約5成無關係的，好多有關係的因為小朋友面試表現差而連second interview 的機會都沒有。

贊成Bertie07喎。
我女兒和另一個同學都係無關係, 非教徒(仲要讀天主教幼稚園), 非舊生, 唔係咩專業人士只係打工一族既中產家庭, 我們兩個女兒都有2nd in。
平心而論, 兩個女都係乖巧醒目和受教, 性格一個動一個靜, 我女主音樂佢個女主運動, 相同之處係大家英文算好(K2 Movers考14盾); 而且我們都係自己教小朋友的在職媽咪。portfolio 5頁紙咁大把, 有提拿了大約幾多個獎音樂咩程度但無scan cert。
我覺得1st in時單對單問答老師最留意小朋友是否和家人關係好, 父母有無參與教育instead of 用錢掉佢出街學呢樣學嗰樣; 另外砌lego嗰part也考小朋友的聽指示和群體能力, 因為要跟足指示又要和自己組員合作去設計, 成功與否不重要, 但聽聞有啲"公主""王子"中途病發喊又有叫又有和組員鬧交都有...
個人覺得SPCC的interview好全面睇小朋友既品德, 我諗佢哋係想搵啲乖又醒既小朋友多過睇background。

我絕對同意LYLYTH 的講法，因為我同你狀況一樣，都有幸入了Second in！

Good Luck to you all !!

Every year there were comments that selection criteria were mainly based on interview performance (mainly from those who got selected but weren't affiliated), on the other hand, comments mentioned that it wasn't based on interview performance but about family background.   There weren't an absolute right or wrong. Because from those isolated cases where they weren't affiliated but selected, it could be understood that parents would believe that interview performance was the pure reason.  But from those kindergartens where most children being selected were affiliated, while in the same school, non-affiliated children who used to have much better school performance than the affiliated children weren't selected, it was also totally understood why parents of non-affiliated would think affiliation and parents' background were the main considerations.  My friend's school, at least 10 out of 11 children got into 2nd were affiliated, so I could understand why parents of non-affiliated would feel suspicious about the selection criteria.

So for those non-affiliated, your child must have done a great performance.  While it could not be denied that considerations were not totally about performance, parents' background and affiliation were used to be another major criteria in some cases.

Gwengwen,你個囡囡好叻希望佢成功！如果兩間都收，你會入皋邊間？

我都覺得呢D變身例子好可恥。
最好第日宗教都要查三代，睇你係咪報名前無耐突然變身。
