擔心拔苗助長，考小學面試時會得不償失。無論身高和能力都交大B差，長遠下去會破壞自信心。家人會這星期決 ...

You make the right choice! The best seller book " outliner" analyze that big b has been in advantages in all aspects throughout their life. Support

Cckg is an elite school. Once in cckg , your other children and his future children will all have higher chance to get in.
You sure he would agree with your decision after he grows up?

cckg for sure.  if the kid has potential, why waste time to repeat to learn something he may have already known.  self esteem can be built up by taking up challenges.

cheaper and smaller school and better environment

cckg for sure.  there are small boys around me who born in dec but able to get several offers while some other big boys who born in jan got only one or nil offer  this year.  

as far as i know, cckg boys hv probably the highest successful rate in applying dbs in recent yrs.

The question is if a boy cannot be admitted by DBS, his competiveness is not obvious when applying other dss/private school, moreover, he may even be at the lower hand being a small boy. The teaching at CCKG is not particularly outstanding when compared with st cat n kv esp Chinese. Last year DBSps admitted more than 80% boys from cckg, n only 60% this year, what next? Those who faile DBSps need to compete with elite boys from other school and small baby is at a very disadvantageous position. That is our worry.

Cannot agree more

Seems like we are the minority here but i totally agree with you. I'm sure CCKG is a great school but i would only go there if i am sure the kid is at least the top 50pct of the boys there, in order to have a better chance of getting into DBS. Whereas if he goes to St Cats for K1 he has a great chance of being the top 5 pct of the boys in his class. I'm sure DBS will prefer the cream of St Cats to the below average ones in CCKG. Nobody knows for sure and of course there are exceptions, but it's all about probability and over the years big boys have advantages over small boys everywhere around the world, just read the book Outliers.
Also he's repeating K1 in a new school (also a very good one i should say) with new teachers and new methods of teaching, how bored can he be? If you think it's not challenging enough then by all means take other interest classes that would provide the challenge. Kids (and adults) want to work less and play more, i really don't think they will be complaining about how easy the homework is.
Sorry for being long winded but i just want to give you the reasons to convince you that you are doing the sensible thing, among all others "cckg for sure" opinions.  Good luck!

如果樓主咁擔心小朋友自信心問題，咁想問樓主小朋友在Boxhill成績好嗎？如果已經好好，咁又點解要幫佢轉校？即使在SC重讀K1，SC咁多人讀，d父母又對小朋友有期望，希望佢哋入到好既直資私小，自然就會谷d小朋友，課餘學8樣10樣野時有聽聞，可想而知競爭有多大，即使你係大B都未必有著數，因為SC根本唔收細B，你係12月囝，大過你小朋友既同埋細少少既囡仔都可能佔咗一成，所以想提醒樓主你咁concern自信心問題，SC都未必係你所想。

做超細仔的另一考慮就係身形問題.  去到男校讀小一如果佢係最矮好容易會俾d多口仔叫佢做矮仔, 又或者會俾人"烚".  話就話讀得到書唔怕人笑, 但我諗如可避免無人會想個小朋友俾人笑/烚掛?  所以如果樓主個弟弟本身唔係高大的人就要認真考慮呢一點.

弟弟的兒子在2009年12月出世的細仔在MOS BoxHill讀K1, 因為太細，所以報了st Cath repeat K1，點知CCKG收了 ...

其實讀一年CCKG k2睇下點情況先啦, 萬一唔對路, 再出去搵番ST.CAT repeat K2都收啦.

你弟弟道聽途說太多而諗多左, 個個都唔同, 細仔一定"無自信"咩!

最無自信反而係大人.

AAATT

I'm Just thinking it in a simple way - If a kindergarten accepts K2, why wasting 1 year repeating K1? I thought some people repeat 1 year simply because they want to get into a much much better KG?

I wonder whether CCKG will allow you to repeat K3 if you find him not competitive with other big kids during P1 interview. I heard a mother repeat K3 SKH so that bigger chance for him to get into DBS.....

meloeskie2

唔好只体小朋友既出生月份而斷定佢既能力，既然CCKG都覺得佢識合，點解唔比機會佢一試？ 機會錯過咗就冇架啦！ 好好把握！

Keibu

咁WHAT IF 佢响SC唔係好叻呢? 咁係咪再REPEAT多年?
自信心唔係靠踩响其他人上面建立既.
如果社會所有人既能力係用probability計出嚟既話, 咁會簡單好多. 所有人鬥REPEAT咪得囉.

mobaba

What if he's not very good at SC at K1? I think that means his chance of being very good at CCKG K2 is even lower.  There are always exceptions obviously but you can't make a decision based on hoping your son to be the exceptions right?  

大人當然要有自信但有自信唔代表會有offer. 我地的討論係最終希望呢個小朋友升小過程會有好的offer. 升小面試只得一次, 點解要佢同全香港大過佢的小朋友一齊爭學位?  點解要佢去承受部分小學對細仔的偏見呢?

去CCKG讀一年如果唔對路就去返SC讀K2......你之前個年reject完佢你想佢第二年收返係唔係有d難呢?

自信心當然唔係靠踩响其他人上面建立, 但佢去到SC K1最起碼唔會同一d手指肌肉比佢發展多一年的人同班, 佢唔需要响寫字方面要被逼追趕一d 响KV寫左一年中文字的同學.  In fact 佢係12月BB佢根本都唔會係最大個個, 大家正正常常咁高咁大, 無人俾佢踩. 但佢去到CCKG K2就一定係最細個個.  大家成日都話要相信CCKG的interviewers的眼光, 但係佢地學校每年都有十幾個仔去唔到DBS, 由K2到DBS面試只有一年多時間, 如果個仔入唔到DBS個D interviewers 根本唔需要負責任, 因為無人講過話CCKG保送男拔.

我學得repeat呢樣野只可以細個(PN, K1)做同埋响轉另一間學校時做, 因為:
1) 3, 4歲小朋友去到新環境, 有新同學, 唔會覺得自己係"冧"班. 到佢K3 考左N咁多間小學你先同佢講話 "阿仔, 我地不如讀多年幼稚園好唔好?" 佢唔傷心就奇.
2) 一年的分別只會係4歲時前特別明顯 (1 year out of 4 is 25%), 5歲後基本上分別越來越少, repeat的作用不大, 反而有機會傷害佢自尊心.

我唔明白點解同一D同年的小朋友讀多一年K1係浪費時間.  大家趕住去邊呢? 早一年讀完大學? 2003年大學畢業生遇著沙士, 好多人都搵唔到工, 但2004畢業的就無呢個問題, 所以其實早未必一定好過遲. 人生漫漫長路, 又何必急於一時呢?

先旨聲明, 我對CCKG無偏見, 如果題目係 1)CCKG K2 vs SC K2 我會選CCKG; 2) SC K3 (細仔) vs CCKG K2 (大仔) 我會選CCKG; 但樓主呢個題目我就選SC K1.

twllc

我都會揀cckg。

我小朋友同你弟弟小朋友同年同月，我小朋友一個班主任唔建議我咁快俾佢地repeat(雖然另外都有人話佢比同齡發展慢）。因為依家先k1，未有好多證據佢真係跟唔上，所以班主任建議我地睇定d，k1唔repeat仲有好多位可以repeat(如k2,k3,小一等）但如果咁快就用左呢個quota,以後就冇repeat位了。
當然，呢個班主任佢本身的小朋友都係細仔，其中12月細仔，依家讀緊p3,學校建議佢跳級添。
以上係我的想法，不喜勿插

多謝大家的意見，根本現在很多10／11月的小朋友都會做大仔，我們repeat K1,小朋友都只是同同齡的小朋友做同學，從來沒有想踩別人的意思。

另我們決定repeat K1了，漫漫長路，樣他輕鬆點吧！
祝各位心想事成，入到好學校。
