Actually, it worries me that most of the school are examined the kids by story telling . Mine girl is shy and she cannot be too relaxed infront of strangers. Even, she can do it , I know she cannot be as good as at home. But she is so good at acadamic. She is more comfortable if you ask her to write it down and choose the correct answer. I guess some school will use written cos, they need the correct candidtates be ready and prepared for their primary life. In order to choose the right ones , they will use this format.

Yes, of course, your point is very valid.

I heard that some school have video viewing and ask the kids to comprehend the stories in the video. So, it's not about story telling only, it's about comprehension, listening, language expressions + they ask the kids to work on worksheets.

It involves many developmental issues there: 1) cognitive development; 2) organizing skills; 3) listening ability; 3) language development of long sentences; 4) fine motor skills on writing

That's too much for a general 5 year old, not for those gifted and outstanding of course!!

Some teachers from these school said to me that these interview designs were really "cruel" to the kids as from their perspectives. They said these are "crazy" exercises for the children - as from what they have said...

So the point I raise here:

When DSS is subvented by the government, using the tax payer money... then why they are going to go to a trend to "elite" education while at the same time, they are saying that they are providing a "loving" and "happy learning" school environment for all kids, yet at the same time, excluding other kids that worth of receiving the educational opportunities where the "traditional elite schools" are doing the same thing for over years?

So why you have this DSS school setting up???

Maybe you should consider writing your comments to EDB so that the non-compliance can be identified and rectified.

I talked to the principal of my kid's kinder, which so call a famous one: The principal explain why the curriculum change these two years- to be more difficult-p1 level for k3 students- she said she is having pressure from other parents..

I found the curriculum "really" headache to me... That's not education, there's no principles....their teachers are good, they are forced or given pressure from their principal...

That's part of the reality!!

其實大家有沒有想過不容許筆試的來源是什麼?

如果沒有記錯在教育局的文件上,對幼稚園的指引是K1不建議寫字的,是看,讀,認字,畫畫
在K2開始小量,很小量的
到K3才開始寫簡單的
原因是小朋友的手部肌肉未發肉建全,過早 ...

你個POINT 1已經大把學校做緊啦! - so is this right way to do??

Does not mean it is "right" or not violating the educational policy.

Even though I cannot change it by myself, I need to point it out.. ...

係唔係RIGHT WAY, D家長自己已經選擇了。唔鐘意/唔BUY佢咁做, 咪唔好考囉! 再者, 教署指引都唔係今年先出, 以往一直都有咁講, 但亦有學校咁做, 咁教署點解唔做野?
有時我地唔一定要去改變某D野, 而係自己去做出選擇。你要去讀DSS/PRIVATE, 咪要自己選鐘唔鐘意佢咁考你小朋友囉。如果唔鐘意, 咪等政府大抽獎囉, 又唔會冇書讀既。

Can you elaborate:

1. whether all DSS/subvented schools are not practising it (if not all, can you give some examples?);

2. in what way are they not practising it?

上年,SFA有考筆試,是我女兒說的,考成45MINS,又不讓考生用學校厠所,學校只提供臨時膠TOLIET,安排十分差,對這間學校十分反感.

My opinions:

Both are good Yes Or No

From this year's interview as told by my kid on the process of interviews,

TSL is going to be the same as 九龍塘學校 in terms of :

1) asking academically "sound" questions in interviews

2) targeting at "excellently smart" kids that are academic and achievement oriented

Good for some kids (the 150 selected ones), Definitely Disaster for Other kids (Unfortunately, yet may be lucky of not being selected, thanks God!!)
