超級功利主義，執輸行頭慘過敗家，羊群心態，不要輸在起跑點上，這些觀點是否做成現今香港教育生態的原凶？

Generally, you are correct.
If u a interviewer for selection new staff. what is your selection concern?
If most candidate performance are similar. you will pefer candidate with more cert. or selected in random?
I will perfer more cert. one.
It is because of high ability with more cert. person, it is safty for interviewer to select new staff.

For the school, it is the same reason for selection suitable kids for interviewer.

The first round of F.1 place is selected 2 school & making interview.
The second round is ranking & lucky draw.

I think most school will select the best of the best in all interviewee in first round.

How to know the interviewee is best of the best. I think the public cert., public activity, representative of HK. All is measurable and countable.

Therefore, most parent will prepare its.

朋友說帶小朋友去深圳考starter，因爲國內考試冇年齡限制，可以趕得切用張cert去報小一。聽罷我馬上肅然起敬。

After a serious selection process, a good Manager should be able to tell the specific strengths and weaknesses of each applicant.  

Every applicant carries different experience, attitude values and motivation.  They should not be similar.  An eye-catching cert. of course can easily earn an interview.  However, I never make my final decision based on how many and how nice the certificates are.

But, the reality is too many people rushing to the popular schools.  How can the Principals read the real potential of every student in a 10-minute interview?

各位好,

睇完你們的文章, 令我有些擔心.
我小朋友P.4, 剛考了MOVER - 14盾, 之前冇讀過劍橋的課程.
他現在想考KET, 但聽人說考KET 最好讀下劍橋的課程, 我未找到間學費唔太貴, 地點又近, 讀的時候短.
我比他考都是想佢升中時有些少CERT. 在手, 佢成績唔太好, 但又不至於差, 我只想佢入到英中就算, 唔駛一定名校, 但我知都幾難.

請問各位有冇咩意見? 報唔報讀劍橋課程, 考唔考KET ? 謝謝!

如果資源是一個考慮的話,建議你可在相關考試範圍內多跟你小朋友練習.成績不一定差.參加相關課程固然好,但亦要考慮金錢,時間和效果.

基於以上的考慮,我絕大部份都自己教,除非沒能力及沒頭緒,效果不比參加課程遜色.

另外,我認為各科包括英文在內,應在平時的課程先打好穩固的基礎,有了好的學校成績,即使沒有這些外來的證書,仍不愁沒有學校收.反之,學校成績不好,再多的證書亦未必有很大幫助.況且,當已經在學校的成績上奠下良好的基礎後,再參加劍橋這類考試自然事半功倍,水到渠成了.

No need to joint the course for KET or PET.
You can train by your self if you have F.4/5 standard.

My P.1 kid never take any course.
He get high mark in Flyer.
His English is learning in school, not extra training or course.
He will take KET after summer.
Now, he can finish KET paper in a hour with 90% correct.
But his hand writing so bad and slowly.

Are u accepted the P.1 kids take the exam in KET/PET.

I try to refuse his request due to the KET/PET exam for P.1/2 boy is no use.

He give me a answer is :-
When I completed PET exam, then I can start the public math exam.

Some of his schoolmate, completed PET in P2, and get Double Distinction and yet being the Youngest Outstanding Candidate in the Fall 2009 World Class Test.

Some of your saying is correct.

Now, he can say & write sentence with tense for hundreds words. In Easter, he wrote a project for easter holiday, more then 300 words. Finally, his submitted the project less then 100 words with pictures in 2 A4 papers.

I refused the PET for him, when KET is complete, English test is complete.

He love reading, find the question, solve the problem.
He reading many books, even English, Chinese, on any area, eg history, science, story & etc. He can tell me the content, discussion or ask me a question.

Last X'mas, he has a interest in maths when he saw the book for maths application in daily,
then we are doing the maths and he feel so interesting.

Actually, his school standard is similar with 90+% primary school, no 1 or 2 level up for teaching. He is enjoy the school life.

He can not get full mark in daily homework, but he can solve the problem of other level.

咁多高要求，咁多証書，又要學業分數高，小朋友又如何每樣也培養到濃烈的興趣？最後就算做到了，也只是交差，變成考試考証書的人多，真正愛英文，愛音樂，愛學習的人少。

是否香港先係咁？ ...

直頭係 hk 先咁 k 型.

考考埋埋, 都唔知為咩, 一尾鬥多囉.  小朋友變左考cert.機械人大有人在.  見到都驚.

Heidi媽 & thomas_dad,

多謝你們的意見.

我知"疊埋心水考好學校呈分試", 現在努力中, 我係諗緊, 去上course 會否有幫助於學校成績. 因我英文差, 唔識自己教佢, 根本幫唔到佢, 就算download d paper 都唔知點幫佢, 阿仔係學校派表咪比佢試下, 學校唔係勁校, 佢考60, 5354有d危, 都唔知算唔算band 1.

所以先想summer 去上劍橋course 看會否有幫助於學校成績 及順便報考試囉.
