West Buckland School vs Malvern St James

xin0420

Hi大大們話說小妹非常好彩 收到呢兩間學校既sixth form offer
喺度糾結緊讀邊間好
雖則頭先見到有個post講MSJ唔好既嘢 同埋mumsnet都見到有人話除非你係唔會挑戰老師權威既人 如果唔係千祈唔好讀（其實我係interview個時已經有講過我係會挑戰老師既人）
不過佢有多d我鍾意讀既科 個時佢哋提到我有一科考得麻麻 我當時唔記得問大概即係差成點 email問番 佢哋冇答
反而WBS冇乜負面既意見 但係D科我唔係最鍾意讀
其實我係個個講MSJ既po見到 話宜家仲收生既學校肯定有d問題啦（意思大概係咁） 我都想知大家對呢樣既睇法 始終比咁多錢 香港個間學校又唔算好差（1A）媽咪見到個個po同埋個cm 就話覺得宜家既學校唔會有咁既問題 個個老師都好好（呢個我認同 但係我係香港繼續讀真心會癲）
我想知大大們對兩間學校（主要係WBS）有咩睇法同見解（作為八卦的人 如果有埋rumors可以聽就好了）
希望大家可以比d建議我啦 真係thank you soooooo much！！！

如果本身讀1a，俾agent呃去呢兩個麻麻嘅學校基本上係downgrade自己，完全唔覺你係好彩，我建議你留香港考埋dse，大學再出國，到時揾學校自己做多啲功課

自己 不過經agent有咩問題？經此一役 我真係學識咩人都唔可以信 agent呀學校呀都唔可以信（sor for走火入魔lol）
話說頭先我見到有一間d成績普通 但係出咗個oxford 令到我好懷疑到底淨係睇成績究竟work唔work 但係除咗成績呢d比較statistics既嘢可以客觀咁睇 我都唔知可以點參考（不過頭先見到一間叫abbotsholme既學校 之前既a*-a％從2016既24到2019既44到2020既46 突然直升到74）

MSJ 的成績麻麻，唔係差果D，但肯定唔係top! 有D state school 成績仲好！D成績好似向下！如果你會挑戰權威，千祈唔好選，我個女就係咁比人趕出來！只有老師講，學生最好唔出聲！因我仲有個大的考咗落Oxford果邊，有比較就發覺MSJ 的老師質素麻麻！或者咁講，Oxford 果邊學校好多老師都係Doctor!
我小朋友 Year 7個biology 老師其實係教Spanish, 只係讀過下 biology 就叫佢教埋！上課我個女完全唔明，反而上Oak Academy online class 就明！
同埋因小女過去一年讀MSJ, 所以多咗留意MSJ d news, 印象中發現佢成日請老師！所以…
你自己考慮下！
Sixth former宿舍比低年級好！
比較自由，但因為在鄉下地方，我見當地宿生有D開車！

我女話校長教書係好的，有heart的，但太忙，所以很多事情都只聽其他老師講！校長教History的，但佢太忙，成日都來唔到上堂！
Deputy head 教geog, 成日鬧人！Sixth former都鬧！
教RS果位會用粗口鬧人！
教Food and Nutrition 果位就會打擊你自信心！
教art的老師的作品唔夠阿囡之前讀國際學校和傳統名校老師喇！
以上對老師的comments 係我同阿女傾計講的！
你有乜問題可以pm我，不過可能你會覺得我有偏見！
對學校附近我都有少少熟悉架，因為呢一年我總共去過四次！

d’Overbroeck’s 係Nord Anglia 的group, 我個女在香港讀過佢的國際學校，老師們係有心教好D學生，有heart的！d’Overbroeck’s 比較細，課室都細，所以係好小班教學，宿舍分散在牛津市入面！我有聽Oxford 的家長講Oxford International College, 主力谷成績，星期六都要返去考試，咁我唔知你係咪純追求成績，係的話可以考慮下！但就無校園生活！
