CLC, St Mary's Calne, St Swithun's

ramen

阿女會 join year 12, 我想佢讀 CLC / St Mary's Calne, 但佢就想去 St Swithun's, 因為學校無 exeat (佢唔鍾意去host family 到住), 又近機場多d, 無 Saturday school, Winchester 個 town 舒服得黎都算熱鬧.  女比較文靜, 而且 year 12 都係專注讀書, 所以多唔多活動, boarding ratio (唔太低就ok) 唔係重要考慮.  對我黎講反而學校 reputation (特別係 local reputation, 唔係香港家長既 interpretation), 成績, university placement 比較重要, 大家可以分享下嗎?

如果有用家家長可以分享下學校生活就更加好.

多謝大家先~~

三校從成績可見皆俱相當學術水平
整體外比較想修讀的AL科目的成績

CLC 校舍分佈在 Cheltenham
St Mary's Calne 校園在 Town centre
St Swithun's 要行約30分鐘去市中心

CLC 屬大校 Sixth form 每級百六人
另外兩間屬細校 每級約六七十人

CLC/StMC 寄宿比例近/過八成
St Swithun's 寄宿約四成半 唔算太低

CLC 國際生比例約兩成半
較 StMC 及 St Swithun's 約成半高

多謝你的回覆,
阿女係文科人, 會讀 ENG LIT, HISTORY & PSYCHOLOGY, 請問係咪 CLC 文理較平均, ST SWITHUN'S 就理科, ST MARY'S CALNE 就文科?  我係各學校WEBSITE, 只有 ST SWITHUN'S 有 LIST 晒各科考試成積, 其餘兩間只係一個 OVERALL A-A* etc 的百分比.

不用客氣
問問學校這三科近年AL成績
最好有2017/2018/2019及2023年
2020/2021/2022年量化寬鬆

你個女好叻，應該讀邊間成績都差唔多叻。不如揀間佢自己鍾意，咁讀得開心自在，成績事半功倍！

我本身不太喜歡校捨spread out in town, 所以會揀 St Swithun or St Mary’s Calne.

St Swithun’s 無exeat 是否有誤解？

St Swithun's no fixed exeats ?

Full Boarding

We expect our full boarders to be in 2 out of every 3 weekends but, as we don’t have fixed exeats, our boarders can take weekends out of school whenever it best suits them.  We don’t have Saturday morning school and weekends have a much more relaxing feel to them.

CLC宿舍離開學校可能係10-15分鐘路程,每日行四次,如果當散步當運動都OK, 否則都幾麻煩

謝謝你的建議, 其實我都係唔敢幫佢揀, 始終係佢要係學校生活兩年.

我估我無誤解喔, TERM DATES 上面無 FIXED EXEATS 的...而且UNDER "FULL BOARDING"係咁寫的...

"...We recognise the difficulty presented by exeats for non-UK based families. Over 100 of our boarding students stay on-site with us every weekend in term time, with the exception of the May bank holiday.  At the start and end of term we arrange international airport transfers, and we offer storage over the school holidays to avoid students having to ship their belongings backwards and forwards.  Our supportive parent network welcomes new families and we are usually able to connect boarding parents with other families that live close to them before their daughter joins St Swithun’s, and to include them in the school community.

一啲都唔係問題，我啲女都唔特別活躍，但係有得行吓可以調劑下生活。其實冇咩學校會住同上堂喺同一度地方，可能間house近science school就唔近maths school，或者要行一陣先去到music school。除非有啲學校，house去學校要搭車先誇啲。

見你兩位千金讀得咁開心, 其實我都好想佢去CLC, 不過我又唔想出聲要佢去咁...唯有比時間佢自己考慮~

我們都正考慮CLC 及St Swithun's, 但相反是她見過學校很喜歡facilities,我比較擔心宿舍同學校距離。但Sixth form 可能多boarders 會開心d.

點解擔心？有咩問題？咁大個行幾步路冇咩問題啦。我細女Y7去都係咁行...幾時都係多boarders開心啲...

其實真係唔使擔心, 個 TOWN 好安全, 而且見好多女仔一齊行的, 冬天仲好似有SHUTTLE BUS, 對嗎?
