Think Int'l KT (九龍塘朗思) 48人一班的「小」班教學

gtgy

As suggested by karaqueenie, I also post this top in 談幼稚園 in addition to 談幼兒園.

Think International Kindergarten (Lincoln Road campus) puts 48 pre-nursery students in one classroom, which totally violates the School's "Small class size policy". I would say it is not value for money for the monthly tuition fee of HKD4,500 from the parent's point of view.  Since the School has never communicated this high number of students to classroom ratio information to the parents, some parents are aware of this terrible situation up until the second week after the school year starts, parents are so surprised to find out that 48 students are housed in one classroom which in my opinion cannot provide sufficient space and comfortable environment for the students to learn and play. Does anyone here in the forum come across similar situation and advise how the parents can influence the school or the Authority to improve the situation? Thanks a lot!

Hi ting-ma,

That is a very sensible presumption.  It will happen sooner or later at the peak of flu seasons.

1&2. 舊校以前都係有同類似的事件, 總校長都係置之不理, 仲大大聲聲同家長講: 如果你接受唔到, 可以轉校, 所以反映不滿比校長知, 作用相信唔大
3.佢地又有足夠老師1:15, 同教署反映會受理嗎?
4.而家都差唔多開學了,  ...

Not sure if Apple Daily 蘋果日報 and Oriental Daily 東方日報 can give us a helping hand to check since I don't have so much energy, resources and time to fight against the School.

聽聞所有學校當初申請開班時, 教署應該會因應班房而限制每班人數, 你地最好check check, 睇下學校有無"超收"~~

Hi LittlePanda101,

I'm not aware of any whole day PN class student around in Licoln Road campus.

Perhaps you're talking about Boundary Street campus IB programme, right?!

Hi karaqueenie,

Based on my understanding, the original kindergarten library at the Boundary Street campus no longer exists as there were major renovations at the campus in order to fulfill hardware requirements of IB world school.

Correct me if I am wrong.

In my opinion, it's better to reflect your views and opinion to 蔡校長 directly at the meeting last night although I know 蔡校長 reads this forum recently.

咪就係,我都覺得怪怪地,投票意義何在？

講真,小朋友好不容易，從適應期裡熟習了這個新環境，而家又要佢地轉 （去舊校），我叫你每個月都轉一間新公司，你有咩感受呀？！

As I mentioned at the beginning of this topic, the objective is to influence the school in order to improve the school operation.  I'm very pleased that the school management responds to the concerns in a very efficient way.

As we signed the confidentiality agreement (in fact, it's a sort of gentleman agreement) last night, I'm not going to disclose anything we discussed in the meeting and I believe it’s not necessary as most (if not all) stakeholders (such as school management and parents) were involved in the meeting.  The information disclosed by the school management is very precise and transparent.  

I don't think the file is yet to close, as parents, we will monitor the progress closely.  I hope that Think International Kindergarten will improve the school operation and execution on a continuous basis to the benefits of the kids and school staff.  As what the school management did last night, keep on listening to the views and opinion of the parents.

Hi babyglock,

無需激動，我相信蔡校長應該睇到你嘅comment，你星期六重可以三口六面再同佢反映一次。

等佢地夠人在舊校開得成一班啦, 都痴線, 咁投票黎做咩, 全日班學費又比得多過人, 用又要人地用返D舊設施舊課室, 投票的意思係要小數服從多數,究竟校長知唔知自己做緊咩架？

睇到生果日報有關於Think嘅報導。

我覺得同區競爭對手都有嫌疑，傳聞有九龍塘名牌幼稚園扮九龍塘居民反對競爭對手在區內建新校舍，因會增加交通擠塞咁話，所以最大得益者係佢地。至於如退學嘅家長報料，咁樣只係報復心態，損人不利己，咁樣好影響其他家長、小朋友嘅生活，話哂都做咗幾日同學仔，唔好咁啦！

本人覺得似係果班走左的家長報料, 只有走左果班家長, 佢地D小朋友都唔響度讀, 當係對校長報復, 唔理仍然響度讀果D家長, D人咁鬼黑心, 單野一揚左, 學校真係會停課都唔出奇, 好心D人唔好做D損人不利己既野啦, 多得佢 ...

希望教育局考慮減少對百多個家庭嘅影響，盡快審批Think個申請啦。

今天傳媒的高調報導實在太多巧合，爆料人會唔會就係……

gtgy

咁多壓力，教育局應該好快會批出註冊比Thinko掛。
