Resources of International schools (Preschool)

Pli822

Hi everyone, I have a child who’s gonna study nursery class in a bilingual private school starting in August. My husband and I want to put her in an international school when she reaches 3 years old. Do you have any resources how to gain access to the information? We live in the Kowloon side.

學校既資料基本上學校網頁已有齊，反而你應該先收窄一下範圍，先考慮自己係想報國際學校定行非傳統學制 (e.g. IB etc)既私立學校。因為國際學校唔一定行IB, 行IB 又唔一定係國際學校。你先決定左呢樣就可以收窄好多，唔駛大海撈針。假設你已經決定係報國際學校，下一步就係每個家長都頭痛既問題，就係中文。如果又想係國際學校又想有一定程度中文，其實已經犀淨無幾多間。
假設對中文要求唔高，反而選擇比較多，但就要注意番個報名時間，間間都有 d 唔同，有唔少學校仲有係 application from birth(e.g. GSIS/Kellet/FIS etc)，所以呢樣要留意。

你會唔會已經有 d 諗法可以分享下等大家可以再比建議你?

Thanks a lot, 可能我須要知道curriculum (例如IB, GCSE) 的利弊，再作選擇。其實心目中想ESF。祟覺得有保證。
當然中文也想小朋友好，但是又不會有太高要求。

ESF 需要比class A Debenture, 成50萬去攞個priority to interview, 無比的話真係睇彩數，當然啦，比左唔係一定會入，佢主要interview 係睇小朋友的英文溝通能力，英文對答有傾有講就好大機會

What is your 水平 definition? Some are happy if their child can speak but some want extensive writing.

耀中嘅中文程度應該比其他國際學校深啲，不過nursery階段不會顯現太多。

國際學校/私立; IB/UK/US; 中文繁體/簡體; 還有雙語如YCIS 分別...參考下

To simply put, to be able to attain working level of Chinese, to read and write in Chinese at workplace in the future — does it even exist such an international school?

If working level means business level, then your best bet is local schools, not international schools. Or you will need to supplement IS with heavy Chinese tutoring.
I have yet to meet an IS student with native english level + business level Chinese.
Usually one language is stronger.

一般大部分家長認同中文達到一定水平就 CIS, YC, SIS, CAIS

幼稚园阶段，暫未睇到校風如何。我感覺老師几好，尊重個性發展。

因為有點兒擔心幼稚園太過child centered (自由）教學而忽略了規距～

國際學校都有自己的一套教學方法，這是和傳統學校最大的區別。
