because the school need to maintain 70:30 passport ratio, seems all foundation schools will be filled up by fp holders

Schools with lots of non FPs can still be favourable to local parents.
Local parents tend to be strict and expect their kids to be academically oriented.

May I know why you are so reluctant to send your kid to RC/DC?

I just prefer foundation school. I also like RC. DC is too far away.

Anyway, Im not an academic focus mummy.

The 70:30 is for across all foundation schools and they can always make up the number at central application IF that ratio is not achieved and they need more FP. So I assume ESF kindy kids admission won't be affected that much by that ratio?
And in reality, i believe the current ratio in ESF kindy is ok or not that far off from 70:30 so I suppose even all current kindy choose foundation instead of RC/DC, its not gonna hurt the ratio?

The average score of graduates of  ESF secondary schools is between 38 and 39.
Parents can pick whatever schools that are close to them.

I guess no one can truly tell with this new no zone system. But previously WKS and TY really mostly got 1st and 2nd preferences. The only ones I heard being allocated really far were some TC non FP being allocated HK Island side.

No, my guess is for foundation schools they would pick FP holders among kindy kids before non-FP holders for the same preference, and the others just follow the parent’s preference. My guess is more non-FP kindy kids will choose RC (bus route coverage is wide and better results than DC), and some HK catchment kindy kids will choose SJS and KJS and got in. So…for non-K kids, it will be hard to get into RC (no more place left after siblings, NR, etc…) and will be offered interviews at foundation schools on HK island side.

why do you think more non-fp kindy will choose RC under drop zoning policy?

I mean…they will be allocated to RC as second choice if they could not get in their first choice (popular foundation schools like SJS and KJS).
Afterall there will be applicants dropping their own catchment schools to go for KJS or SJS. And I believe the island side schools will be less preferred than RC as second choice (ESF Ks are mostly on Kowloon or NT side, kids seldom travel from HK side to ESF K I guess?) Judging from the fact that kindy kids get allocated before central applicants, there should be enough seats to fill their first and second choices. Island side schools have always been less preferred (because of their location really, 3 of them are in the mid-levels), I believe those spaces would not be taken up by ESF K kids.

but if i live in hk side,  i will prefer foundation schools even they are in mid levels. also i think the transportation time from hk island to mid levels should be less than traveling to RC.

HK side parents would choose SJS / KJS then 孟母三遷(you already understand), Kowloon / NT side parents would put RC as 2nd choice rather than schools on HK island (make sense). Remember there’s only one ESF K on island side, that means 4/5 of kindy kids are living in Kowloon or NT.

Apart from the 3 in mid levels, 1 is at the peak and the other 1 at a tricky location between island west and south - which could actually be more inconvenient than those in mid levels.

Does Peak School have school bus to Elements ?  It doesn't show in their website.  I only know Bradbury School did ,  so I chose Bradbury School as we lived in Elements.
