I am thinking to apply Kellet and/or international school for my 3-year-old. We've been talking to my boy in English at home since born and so hopefully language is not a barrier. Any parents to share their experience? Both positive and negative and any remarks are appreciated!

請問你排了幾耐先有位?




作者: florencewongpy    時間: 14-9-9 17:38

我排了三年都仲係五十幾,有時打去問下,位置會愈排愈後,因有 priority 會打左你尖,三年前我也排了買 debenture 條隊,咁啱輪到買,買左就有得跳到頭十位,所以買了,今年開學前一星期忽然話有位,本身話可能下年先有,不過睇下你 timing 啱吾啱,識朋友舊年插高班,吾使買債券都有位,低年班就吾使唸啦

There are a few IS in HK where applying from BIRTH is basically mandatory:
GSIS, DBIS, Harrow & Kellett. (fellow parents do add to the list if i missed any)

Other IS usually accept applications 1-2 years prior to the year of entry, usually for Reception (age 4). Chaim, i am a bit surprised, given you were speaking to your child from birth in English (hence showing the sign of early preparation), why didn't you apply a bit earlier? May i know if you were planning to go the local route previously, or that you are new to Hong Kong? These info would help gauge what suits your child.

Nevertheless, it is still not too late. IS in HK comes in all shapes and sizes. If you are looking at Kellet, then are you aiming for UK style schools? Is learning Chinese important? What are the plans for tertiary education? Any preferred continents due to family ties or other factors? When you said Pros & Cons, are you referring specifically to Kellett or IS in general? Sorry for my many questions, just hope to give appropriate advice in accordance to your needs :)

Thanks lovecasey! 除左買 debenture, 條隊其實係咪先申請先排? Reception唔需要interview?

Yes. But your waiting list no will go up and down during the waiting period as some ppl might get priority through subscribing debentures, siblings .

佢之前讀 Kingston, 但 Kellet poilcy 好似在 year 2或以下是不用 interview 的,就算要 in, 好似都係同校長傾下計,睇下小朋友既英文程度咁
作者: jwong451120    時間: 14-11-12 14:43

Ic. thanks! Why did you consider to change from Kingston to Kellett? Your girl likes the school so far?
