It is meaningless to compare the 4+ results of a subsidized school with feeder primary school and a DSS school as there is a big difference in S1 intake student quality.
DSS schools have a full control of their S1 student selection. For those top DSS schools, external students (i.e. not from its feeder primary school) are almost 100% Band 1A. You may argue that it is compulsory for a DSS school to accept the Band 2 / 3 students from its feeder primary school. However, the number of Band 2 / 3 students of those top DSS schools like SPCPS, should be very minimal and at least comparable to top primary schools with no feeder secondary schools like TSL and APS as they have a full control on the P1 intake as well.
SJC needs to accept 99 Band 1 and 2 students from SJPS. At least half of them are Band 2 students as about 10 top students of SJPS will choose top schools like SPCC, QC and DBS over SJC. A few may go for international schools or study overseas. Hence, 50 Band 2 SJPS students in SJC S1 intake is a fair estimate. There is only about 70% Band 1 students in SJC S1 intake which is far less than 90% for Band 1A DSS schools like SPC and 100% for Band 1A Government / Subsidized schools with no feeder primary schools like SY.
Most of the DSE subjects 4+ % range from 30% to 50%. Hence, 4 is a reasonable performance can be expected from a Band 1 student. With a higher percentage of Band 2 S1 intake, it is not surprised SJC has a lower 4+ % than SPC and SY. However, if you look at the 5+ % and 5*/5** + %, SJC is on par if not better than other Band 1A boys’ schools. In 2024 DSE, those 30 top boys on the SJC honor roll have got at least 30 point in their best 5 (unweighted 5** = 7) including the top scorer with 7 x 5**.
Someone may say Wanchai is a strong school net, Band 2 students of SJPS is in fact HK Band 1. This can happen but the amount should be single digit. If you compare the Pre S1 results of SJC to SY, SJC students have better results in English while SY is better in both Chinese and Mathematics.
Someone may question how SJC can maintain its EMI status if more than 15% of its SI intake are Band 2 students? In fact, the 85% requirement for an EMI school is not on Band 1 student but “Top 40% students capable of English learning”. SJPS English standard is very good and most of its Band 2 students should be well within this Top 40% category. This can be evidenced by the good English and not so good Chinese / Mathematics Pre S1 results of SJC.
Then how can SJC improve its 4+ %? The easiest ways are either transforming to a DSS school or decoupling with SJPS. The % of Band 1 students can be increased immediately. However, this won’t be happened as they are not aligned with the mission and vision of Lasallian schools.
