CPU 講得太好了，我沒有什麼補充。我兩個仔當年面試時被問及的問題都是大同小異。

我下星期會飛去Wymondha ...

可否問下Wymondham College喜歡收那類型學生，細仔都幾內向。

我覺得只看 suitability for boarding. 只要表現得好獨立，合群，懂照顧自己，享受寄宿生活，唔掛住屋企便好大機會了。

Hi Tommy

My elder son visited his younger brother recently and the single journey took over 4.5 hours. He opined that Wymondham College is in the middle of no where.

Despite his comments, my younger son finds that Wymondham is a very good school in every aspect and time goes very fast here during the past 1.5 month.  He even changes his eating habit and eats his most disliked food here.

Before applying Wym, my younger son attended the HK outward bound course and I think such boarding experience increased his chance for admission to Wym.

我女兒上星期面試,在等结果中, 若收了她。我想問交通怎樣安排, 從倫敦去wymondham好似很複習, 坐火車又要轉TAXI,我有點擔心

last year there were 13 students admitted to Oxbridge which was more than 11% of the total students.

Wymondham is a very good school. The school is highly disciplined, large, excellent pastoral care and communication with parents as well as large boarding population.

My son enjoys studying here much.

Nice to meet you all here!
My son is planning to apply for Y9 for Sep 2016. We are targeting state boradings.
We are visiting some schools in Mar so that my son can get to know more about these schools. Meanwhile can you please share which agents in Hong Kong is good with State Boarding Schools. Some of you mentioned AA, what does it stand for? Thanks in advance! Kung Hei Fat Choi!

Parents will be wise to stay away from this school. Our son was a student there and he was subjected to racist discrimination by the school.

You have written the same thing under the posts about Sir Roger Manswood, Wymondham College and State Boarding Schools.  Are you referring to state boarding schools in general or any particular school?

Sorry for not being clear. I meant Sir roger manwood's school only.

I found it interesting that you keep on bad mouthing Sir Roger but you are using its school name as your username.  My child does not study there (academically incapable anyway) and I do not have any friends studying there either but I found it really strange of you of not collaborating further about what happened.  Kinda sour grape....?

Absolutely not. Because the case has gone to the school for a formal review. Of course you are most welcome to try out the school.

Mighty

I will not try that school because I know it is beyond my child's capability.  I look forward to hearing your case once it is over.
