保良局顏寶玲vs賽馬會體藝

funnychang

請問band 1 尾 學生已被顏寶玲取錄,是否應該放棄學位去博沙田賽馬會體藝中學?

兩家學校的校風和學術水平如何? :

賽馬會體藝中學係band 1學校+強勁藝術體育，band 1頭學生學科上O.K.但欠缺藝術體育成績都未必入到。
就band 1 尾 學生都有好多選擇，顏寶玲好咩？我校d同學仔叫呢間做田雞學校，我唔知點解，但佢哋日日番學見到呢間嘅學生，印象極唔掂。
在大抽獎時，band1第一同band1第三十，機會都是一樣的，睇隨機no.前唔前，何須咁快斷送機會？

這個個案值得研究：
顏寶玲為新校，完全沒有成績可睇！
不過體藝之成績以英中來說，一定強差人意！
顏寶玲定位清晰：直資英中，沒有林大輝之教授級老師...不過唔知點解越來越吸引家長垂青...相信全收band１生指日可待！
體藝起初定位是一生一體藝之英中（陶冶性情），但實施多年，文法上並不突出（比勞工子弟也不如）；體藝上也不見特別優秀之處（你唔

謝謝兩位的意見. 我選直資的原因是真的認為傳統的教育方法有不足之處,未能令下一代有好的裝備,應付日後的需要(不是copy簡介會校長的說話,而是真切的感受), 所以對許多人趨之若鶩的band1名校,多少抱有懷疑態度.
其實我也擔心賽馬會體藝在教育方法上偏向傳統,未能引發學生獨立思考和研習的興趣.

另一方面,我也十分同意你們對顏寶鈴學生的觀察,本人也有此擔心.在芸芸直資中,我選了這間學校,band1生的比例較多是其中一個原因.我覺得沒有了學生素質的限制,學校才有更大空間去推行較高水平的課程.另外,該校10%的非華裔學生應該可以為學校締造一定的英語環境.雖然有些人會不喜歡當中大部分是南亞裔學生,但我認為不要少看他們.當下許多跨國公司的主管都是印度人,在IT界他們的表現也絕不遜色.

LilyMaMa,

But I heard from 賽馬會體藝中學 F.1 student that the students there are not very good in studies, may be they need to spend a lot of time in sports and art training??

For mid-band 1 or after students, what are the choices of other good DSS then?  Is林大輝 good or not?

LilyMaMa

WYmom,
其實好在乎你哋用咩角度去睇賽馬會體藝，體藝都要讀書的，當然無傳統band1谷得咁勁，始終正如其名體藝高於術科係正常的(對這間學校)，讀這間學校除咗以上要點外，分配時間都好重要，因佢哋都要讀書的，但佢始終都係一間band1學校，而且最近都講要加強英文個辦，來取回平衡。我唔知你邊個網或你想報d乜嘢類型的學校，但band1中至尾應該都有好多選擇，我記得前排講過，自行呢個階段係收小學尖子，況且結果都係6、7月先知，盡咗力去試就OK啦，無需要俾大家咁大壓力，如果唔係crazy咗都未等到放榜咪好唔抵。
林大輝我就唔係好清楚，淨係知佢d老師好勁。DSS我冇唸，因我二女已報咗學校，係佢自己決定的，我本想叫佢去試啟新、St Paul & DGS的，但佢唔係好想，咁我哋就隨緣。
我覺得揀學校前，除咗要睇小朋友的banding外，佢哋d性格都好緊要，小朋友谷唔谷得or玩唔玩得都好重要，錯配咗就煩。

LilyMaMa,

Thanks for your comments.  My daughter likes sports and is good at sports, so I am considering those schools good at sports, yet I know 賽馬會體藝 has priority to accept students over other schools, so if I prefer Heep Yunn over 賽馬會體藝, I should not apply 賽馬會體藝, is this correct?

However, it is very difficult to enter Heep Yunn, so if fail, need to have some DSS/private schools as backup, right?

I guess your daughter must be top student as you want to try St. Paul/DGS, then which school have you chosen for your daughter now?

WYmom,
如果你囡囡自行揀協恩，都可以揀賽馬會體藝的(體藝係唯一一間自行收生的津貼學校)即係多一個機會。如果我囡囡對運動有興趣，我都會試，但佢唔係，所以無謂搞，讓有興趣的同學試。

LilyMaMa,

If apply both 體藝 and 協恩, and if so lucky that both accept, then as I know 體藝 has priority over 協恩, and we cannot choose what we want.  That's why I don't think that there is 多一個機會, am I right?

LilyMaMa

我嘅意思係自行多一個機會參與，結果係點真係睇天意。體藝於15/1有個講座，而16-20/1係佢哋嘅open day.
我唔覺得體藝比協恩差好多，協恩都有精英班，協恩舊年會考都有人英文科唔合格，純係各自喜好囉。

聽完簡介曾,有家長發問有関學校有否要求學生退學及留級數目,校長似乎十分不高興,而且並無回答,有無人知道退學及留級情况?

我知有些學校為摧谷成績不會給成績不達要求的學生有機會考會考.

你們有沒有這類中學的名單,我好怕小女入讀這類中學.

Jackyngtm,

The principal is a new one, so maybe she will use different strategies, heard that she will focus more on academic results.

So do you like this school after attending the talk of 賽馬會體藝?  Pls share your opinion with us.  Thanks.

Jackyngtm,

你係講體藝嗎？
我有位同事，佢兩個女都係響體藝讀緊(F.2同F.3)。之前同佢傾開，佢話間學校同普通中學完全無分別，只係間學校D學生，除左要顧住D學業成績，仲要放好多時間落運動度，所以間學校D學生會讀得比出面學校D學生辛苦。
佢話佢兩個女要響學校寄宿至讀得掂(佢地住元朗)。佢仲話呢間學校只要其中一科主科唔合格，個學生就要留級，之前果年，佢話F.1全級有18個人要留級。

Jackyngtm

佢話F.1全級有18個人要留級。

That's quite a lot! 18x4=72 . That means the last 72 students (36%) will repeat at leasty once in any year from Form 1 to Form 5. I also suppose that they are not allowed to repeat twice.

dabbycheung

Jackyngtm,

咁又唔可以咁計，因為18個，可能只係F.1第一年唔適應，所以至咁多人要留級。高年級果D，可能每級得十個八個(我估)，或者再少D都唔定。又唔洗太驚既。

It's 50-50. Although my child do have some minor achievement in sports and she like PE lessons, but I still prefer traditional B1 local school if I can choose, on the understanding that it will lead her to a career in areas other than sports. I still believe sportsman have no prospects in Hong Kong. The only problem
with me is that B1 students may not be assigned to Band 1 schools, and 體藝 should be a better school than other Band 2 local schools.


Love in playing sports is one thing and taking the HKCEE exam (or HKDSP) in PE subject is another thing.
