回覆 #4 BBIX 的文章
My daughter is Y1 student now. She studied in a really local kindergarten, though the kindergarten has had relatively high proportion of English class taught by NET, in comparing with other local kindergarten.
Of course, studying in international kindergarten has had its advantage, because the students from there should be able to understand English instruction, which is very important when the student attends the screening process.
So, for those students from local kindergartens, home teaching would be more important. Home reading, basic English communications, and other English playgroup would be helpful to strengthen these students' ability and confidence.
From last year’s experience, the importance of “development stage” was emphasized. What I understood it refers to: able to follow instruction, basic communication skills, basic motion ability, basic written skills (able to write names etc.).
I don’t think RCHK has had so called “nationality” policy. In theory, RCHK is a private independent school (PIS) under the management of ESF. So, strictly speaking, RCHK is not a tradition ESF school, which has priority given to non-Chinese speaking children. Secondly, under PIS, given the free land granted by the government, 70% of school places should be allocated to Hong Kong PR (correctly me, if I am wrong!!).
Nevertheless, what I feel is that the competition to get a place in RCHK is increasingly keen, maybe the admission requirement would be raised later and be biased against local kindergarten due to English ability. BUT, one more thing I wanted to share: before you decide which type of kindergarten your kid goes to, think about Chinese learning. RCHK Y1 students already need to write Chinese, my daughter is quite easy to follow and to learn after K1 and K2 training, but I heard that some (only some but not all) students from international kindergarten have had low incentive to learn. |
