Long Beach Greenfield Vs Kowloon Tong Zenith

sandrah

On EK, some users said that Long Beach Greenfield has recruited many BB this year, so many compliants occurred due to rapid expansion.
But some users said that Kowloon Tong Zenith also some administrative problems.
In term of language environment and take care and other development of BB, which is better?
are both only english & putonghua, no cantonese as their school fee is about the same?
Which one has more expenses excluding school fee?

My daughter is studying PN at GF Long beach now and we love the school so much.  Teachers, assistants and principal are all very kind and generous.  They can recognize most of the kids and can call my daughter's name right the way when we enter the school every morning.  Language environment is also excellent as only Eng and PTH in PN class.  In term of school fee, it's around 6xxx/month but no additional fees except for uniform.  I'd say the value of money is good as all Eng teachers are NET and all teachers have at least Diploma in Child Care or Education, and most of them have Bachelor or even Master degree.  I have no idea about Zenith as we didn't apply and visit the school before, you might wait for another parents' comments on that.

Thank for yr sharing! I heard that some users agree the language envirnoment is excellent on Greenfield, but some users said that, due to expansion, Long Beach Greenfield received many BB for PN this year but teachers and assistants may be fresh and less experienced and cannot take care all bb well such as no assitant help BB to go to toilets, Greenfield prepared congee for BB but it is too hot for BB to eat, etc, some parents compliant to school, have you heard some problems from take care of BB?

I am not sure about other classes, but in my daughter's class, there are 1 ENG, 1 PTH and 1 Assistant to take care 1x kids. (as they are accepting small B who will only start school later).  I think the ratio is good enough and my daughter has no problem with snack time and potty time.  There are 2 ladies in the washroom helping out at potting time (at least in the first 2 days I did not see any problem).  But I guess every kid has different development curve, some might need more assistance and teachers might overlook sometimes, but I believe it does happen in other schools as well.
