Any international school (secondary) will accept children from local primary sch

Dear parents,

My son is studying primary six now in a local primary school.  Since his primary two, we have known that he doesn't fit the type of education.  He's quite intelligent, in fact.  He is talented in the area he finds interest.  As a local primary school student, therefore, he has suffered a lot.  As we are busy and lazy, we haven't done anything for him.  His teachers and our friends keep saying he will be happy in international school where the way of learning is different.

Now we really want to do something for him.  We are thinking if there is any international school which may accept students from local primary school.  

Can you help?

Pianoma,

"he doesn't fit the type of education. He's quite intelligent"

As you said, you son is a clever boy, and why you think he doesn't fit the local school education, but international ?

Because my girl is also a very clever girl, I've put her in the int'l school. I'm still not sure if I have done the right thing. Her kindy principal said she will fit both int'l and local school.


Agree. Because of fierce competition and the need of survival, most of the so-called "local primary schools" have transformed themselves. Regarding competition, I heard that 聖方濟各 lost 1/4 of its P.2 students to new DBS this year despite the fact that they have changed quite a lot in the past few years. Bear in mind that means they lost 1/4 of their income, at least for this particular grade.

We must admit that there're still "traditional" schools that keep forcing their students studying textbooks one grade upper than their actual one...but some parents love it (not their kids though).

On the other hand, there's no guarantee that int'l schools must be operated in a "non-local" manner. It depends on its resource and there're miles of difference between the good and the not-so-good. 一分錢一分貨 : Compare HKIS with SRIS and you'll see what I mean.

Re: Any international school (secondary) will accept children from local primary

Dr. T,

How can we find out which int'l schools are operating in a "non-local" manner?  Int'l schools are expensive. As parents, how can we be sure that we're getting the money's worth?  These days, packaging is important and all schools present themselves nicely on the web to impress everyone. It's hard to tell which schools offer quality education.

If we can't afford the name schools like HKIS, CIS or GSIS, what other schools would you recommend?  I have a friend who used to teach in an international school.  He didn't go to college nor did he receive any training in education.  And he wasn't paid a lot either.  He told me that his school was not good, although the fees were high.

Dear all,
The qualification of teachers in local schools, except international school is monitered by the EMB.  That's why the teaching quality of teachers in some international schools may not be up to standard.  Don't think that international school must be better than local school in terms of curriculum and teachers' qualification.  I think that parents must keep in touch with the school from time to time to make sure that their money is not wasted.
我們怕孩子的人生路途滿佈荊棘，與其為孩子在路上舖一層地毯，不如在孩子的腳上穿上一雙鞋。

Through word-of mouth from clients/parents I saw over the years. Not easy...

Melisa,

My friend taught there quite a few years ago.  To be fair to the school, I'd rather not disclose its name.  But don't worry, seems that the school is not a popular one among BK parents as I haven't seen any discussion about it here.
