Haha.....
There are lots of good IS along with ESF (many campuses, well-established and well-known) and CIS (famous for its Chinese and strong in academic, may also be all-round.I am not familiar with it).
I chose a close and bilingual,not too expensive one to start with.
Until I find that my son is academically strong AND he is interested in striving for academic excellence, I prefer not to consider the top school in town.My secondary school (local school) teacher shared his painful lesson of sending his son to top school and advised me not to.He said “there is no better way to ruin your kid than sending him to a top school without considering his interest and ability.”While his son is in his early 30s, he is a 宅男 and had huge difficulty of regain confidence.His smart elder sister went to ust or Hku global business after studying in spcc.She has a high-flying career overseas.His experience (I acknowledged it’s a small sample) suggests that the success rate of 谷 actually is only 50%.I also see that many families’ success rate of 唔谷 is 50%.
Sometimes I also suspect that I may not be aggressive enough in pursuing my son’s education, especially when seeing parents squeezing in the best / top schools.
I am pretty comfortable at this moment (u know he is pre k1), though.I may become more tiger in times.
If he is strong and interested in academics, I would be more than happy to let him get in an elite IS.At his age now, I would prefer a school which is not too academically-famous becox I believe such environment should be more suitable for all-round development.I acknowledge I may be too naive, again.=P
Referring to your point that “I am a local mom raised up in local schools.”I am the same.But someone has to make a change (Obama advocated that for US) and take some risk.There is no higher risk than trying to avoid uncertainty i.e. risk.
Excuse me for being a die-hard fan of IS, even tho I have little experience about it yet.U can read my previous posts (my questions and my doubts).Many experienced parents on EK gave me lots of insights.I am convinced.After less than half a year’ time, I would say I would no longer consider LS.
