Anfield小學同藍田新開的Nord Anglia International School, 到底邊間好呢?
Anfield 小學開得耐d,口碑不錯,但只有小學。NAIS一條龍,但只開左一年半,學費及附加費亦相當高!
希望了解呢兩間學校的爸爸媽媽俾d意見!

Any comments?

I think you have listed out the major pros and cons already. Anfield is British curriculum and a homely small school, Catholic based and kids are well disciplined. The major down side is no secondary school. NAIS has great facilities and secondary, but its profit making basis means the fees won't be cheap. Both schools are relatively new and may expect teacher turnover problems.

Very true! Since I have done lots of studies on both school, I already know the basic information. I raise the topic as I want to know more about comments and different views.

So in your point of view, if money is not an issue, then it seems NAIS is a better choice. Right?

我有朋友嘅女喺NAIS讀緊,我自己感覺上NAIS似貴族學校,可能朋友個女係Y3關係,基本上8成係外國人,學費也不便宜,校園大,話會申辦IB, 所以,其實同Anfield好唔同,我主觀地認為,如果錢同地點唔係問題,應該會係NAIS較吸引。

NAIS 校園唔算大,外國人唔少但一定沒8成,Y1一11用uk curriculum 而非ib,Y12-13 IBDP。貴族學校感覺即是點樣?我唔覺得有咩唔同,家長算富裕大多都nice。我不清楚 anfield 所以恕不能比較了。

我早前去了 Anfield school tour...行 tour是上課時間。每个課室也參觀了。Yr3以下每班孩子較多,每班约25人。Yr3以上比較少,1X人一班。相信是家長也偏向考其他有中学的 IS, 所以有流失。孩子都係几乖。但好smart就唔算。全部也說到流利英語。校園係較细,但还算齊全。staff全能說中文。我相信对很多本地家長会感覺舒服D。

Means that NAIS is not an IB school?




作者: Riesling    時間: 16-1-31 23:23     標題: 回覆:Anfield VS NAIS

我不是用家所以不可評論太多,但記得有個朋友個仔由Anfield轉去Nais, 其中比較深刻的是在Anfield的時候如grammer有錯,老師會圈出錯處,寫上要多留意或小心等字眼,但在Nais,老師好嚴謹,會和該同學再多講解,直至肯定他明白為止!




作者: bb8886    時間: 16-2-1 01:39     標題: 回覆:Anfield VS NAIS

經過呢兩日的研究和探討,我得到以下的小總結:
我發現左Anfield School 其實係一間英式私家小學,而NAIS係一間英式國際學校並且有中學部。正如大家所講,Anfield 係一間校舍比較細設備比較簡單的小學,但校風比較純樸,老師也很友善,小朋友比較守規矩。比較可惜係沒有中學部。
而NAIS係一間全球擁有42間分校的國際化國際學校,因為已經係美國上市的關係,管理上應該比較系統化,也比較完善。由於用舊校舍翻新重用,所以校舍規模不及一些大型老版國際學校大,但騰在設備最update, 有一種麻雀雖小五臟俱全的感覺。學費的確比較貴,A級的收費但B級的檔次這個感覺!
正如樓上所講,如果錢唔係考慮的重點,咁NAIS應該略勝一籌,一條龍的國際學校的確可以省去很多麻煩和壓力!

如果有錯漏,歡迎大家繼續探討!

NAIS is harder to get in and long waiting list. So if you get offer from NAIS,sure go for it.  When you kids are small,  tuition fee for junior forms are usually cheaper in all schools. So try expensive ones first. When get older having difficulties to continue high tuition fee, then change to lower cost schools.

請問兩間邊間較難入?我問過NAIS佢話報名亦唔guarantee有assessment(即係interview), Anfield係咪都係唔一定有得in?




作者: bb8886    時間: 16-8-12 23:19     標題: 回覆:Katherinee 的帖子

其實今時今日大部分的國際學校都因為收到太多申請而唔再guarantee 有interview 機會!即係報左名之後仲要玩lucky draw, 好彩抽中左先有面試機會。除非學校講明先到先得,咁就越早報名就有越大機會面試

學校回覆說會"review all applications but not guarantee a chance for assessments"
我們沒有任何priorities, 有assessment的機會是否很低?

Education Bureau 好似規家NAIS要收7成外國護照既學生 (好似).
不過唔知外國護照定義係點. (中國護照, BNO etc 算唔算)
早排去touring, 驟眼睇, asian/華人 同non-asian 比例大概一比一.
走廊聽到D學生都係用英文交談.

有一點幾特別, 帶團老師用"our company"而唔會自稱"our school". 商業味似乎比其他校重D

If i didnt get it wrong, Year 1 is for kids at 5 yrs old.  So, i GUESS (pls check up with NAIS website) Year 1 for yours will be year 2017/2018.  The school (or company lol) said that application can be done anytime of the year.  However, i guess there is already a long waiting list there just as any other intnl school.

I just know most of the kids at NAIS are very happy, many of their parents are professionals & expatriate! Teachers are from UK mainly and I saw their comments on kids Term Assessment are all very detailed, they have detailed plans for parents from school, telling parents how they are going to get things improve in different time slot and target date (eg. Next Term, Term 1 or Term 2 etc).. I'm very impressed with that. It's like a strategic planning for a kid to grow in their academics path! My relative's son become more caring and gentleman since last year admitted into NAIS, very big change!
作者: 964000    時間: 16-9-8 21:44     標題: 回覆:Anfield VS NAIS

I know friends from both schools, both gave very good remarks to their respective schools. Anfield is very caring indeed. NAIS seems to be quite academic. You may pay a visit to the schools to get a feeling of them. There should be open day in Oct/Nov.

I had a school visit to Nord Anglia two years ago, it gave me an impression of too commercial and the campus is relatively small, especially of their playground.
Couple months ago, when I searched inf for a Yr 6 girl and I found that Nord doesn't have upper secondary class (which means you have to find another school/go abroad after year 9 or 11, I can't remember which secondary year program they provide up to).

Principal of NAIS just announced to parents that a second campus is secured for an all-through education to Year 13. If everything goes well, the new site will welcome first students next Aug.

Hong Kong Island. But the exact location is not mentioned yet




作者: canteen31    時間: 16-9-12 23:46     標題: 回覆:cathygum 的帖子

Quoted from Topschool:

Nord Anglia International School Hong Kong has successfully secured a second campus on Hong Kong Island that will allow the school to offer an all-through education option from Nursery to Year 13. The new campus is set to open in August 2017 and will will provide places forNursery and Reception classes as well as Years 1-3, subject to receipt of customary regulatory approvals.
The Lam Tin campus will be developed further for Years 4–13, to house the expanding Secondary school.

Before my kid got it Nais, always heard others saying v positive things about the school.  Now after almost a month since school starts, I can understand why! My kid really enjoys school everyday, always felt excited to update me what happened at school when I picked him up! I can also see teachers and the school are v serious in school matter. Response to parents are very prompt and helpful to any enquiries and concerns, which made me worry free that I know my kid is in their good hands! I like v much the students mix too, like my class, there are kids from many diff countries, Britain, the US, Europe, Japan, India, Taiwan, China, Hk....etc, most importantly, they are v behaved!

Also like their collaboration with Julliard school of Art in New York and MIT 麻省理工. My kid even can learn 1 to 1 musical instrumemt at school, chances to perform and encourage to attend the public exam of the instrument. Their expansion to the 2nd site also facilitates their ambition to help students to get into top universities just like any other Nais in other countries.

Having seen what they are doing and what they are going to do, I can see the school must be doing better and better, just takes some time for them to flourish as they are here for like 2 yrs only.

Hi 96400, since school starts just more than a mth, I hv not much to share on Chinese. Think they don't hv it as much as like Sis, Isf, Cis or Cais, but they group kids into 5 streamings and hv Chinese class everyday.
They emphasis more on English and Maths, their phonic program is v sound (even divide kids into different groups for phonic class based on their levels!), and maths is not easy, according to parents with kids of higher grades there. :)
