英基7校教學欠佳 10小學首個自評報告 水平參差
6月 3日 星期五

【明報專訊】被審計署批評「管理不善、浪費公帑」的英基學校協會，公布成立40年來首個視學報告。報告綜合10所小學表現，反映教學質素參差，除其中3所小學水平良好外，其餘7所小學平均兩成課堂教學水平欠佳（unsatisfactory），最嚴重一所的教學欠佳課堂比例更高達31%。英基教育發展總監甘榮恩形容，報告部分內容令人失望，但已作出改進。

This is quite disappointing.  Just wonder which 3 primary are better?

Parents should go the ESF's web site to read the whole report.  
www.esf.edu.hk/extreviews.html

The paper version of 明報 has also mentioned some strengths of ESF's primary school.

報告亦讚賞
- 英基小學生的學術能力與英國學生相若，
- 學生表演及視覺藝術水平亦良好
- 優秀教師對學生有合理的高期望, 提出具啓發性問題
- 師生間關係優良, 學生熱愛學習, 品行優秀
- 大部份學校的高層管理合作緊密, 管理制度運作良好

ESF's Schools are not equal, we should not view them as one school.  Just like local schools, parents should use all kind of channels to get the best information about the schools.  The best way is to talk to as many parents as we can.

I guess that Sha Tin Junior is one of the three schools because it has good reputation.  My son's English ability has improved a lot during the past six months.

Anyone know which 3 school is better??
From hearsay, that's the 3 schools will have extra P1 class in coming Sept.
Is that true?

I only know both Kowloon Junior and Beacon Hill will have an extra P.1 class this Sept.

Beacon Hill is doing particularly well after Mr. Brewster becomes their Principal. They have very good teachers too!

Shown媽媽

I just confort myself. Even my one is the worst, what can I do?? Change to another one?? You have no choice. Hopefully, not that bad!

I still want to know which 3

Anybody know?? Please tell.

you are lucky being in one of them

my son cannot get in any one, good or bad

Shown媽媽

Lucky or not! Who knows   :-|

For me:
Good - My kid's school is one of the 3
Bad - His school is the one got 31%  :cry:

Just feel uneasy after the report. I think some parent also feel disappointed.

Let's look at the bright side, after the review, I think that the not so good schools will become better, the good schools will become even better.  The good thing after the global economic decline is that  everyone is working harder to keep their jobs.  We opted to send our children to IS because the local education system is already too sick.

Don't think the IS system is a perfect system, it is just a better system.  Don't forget our own contribution to our children, we can do lot of things to complement the education system.

Try our best then no regrets.

Can anyone tell me which three are good? Thank you!

wbmom

Even if you know which three are better, what can you do? You can not change to those 3 unless you moved your home.

I guess most parents would have some ideas whether their children's school is good or not. I think my son's school is pretty good, I won't get disappointed if his school is not on top 3 although I strongly believe it is!
