我有個朋友說德望既學業成績比聖保祿好, 她建議讀德望, 我好猶豫不決, 請賜教

下....我無聽過喎, 我只有聽過 ST PAUL 收左放棄 GH, 從未聽過 GH 收左會放棄 ST PAUL 羅.... ST PAUL 在各方面包括學業成績都一定好過 GH 好多, 直到現在, 我從未有聽過 ST PAUL 既負面野, 但 GH 我真係聽唔少, 你自己好好想清楚....放棄 ST PAUL 我覺覺得真係好可惜羅......

你的這位朋友是上了年紀嗎？聽說上一代人認為GH勁過St Paul。

作者: iantsang 時間: 11-3-18 16:20

Just wonder, is this comparison on academic achievement on kindergarten, or primary or secondary level?

作者: happymami 時間: 11-3-18 16:27

其實兩間學校根本唔本, 級數都唔同, ST PAUL 唔會有人質疑係咪一間好學校, 反而 GH 而家真係痳痳......所以真係無需比較, 既然你有間咁好既, 就唔使再諗啦!
其實大多數選 GH 既人, 多數都為左保障, 同埋 GH 亦係一間唔差既學校, 又有小學, 又有中學, 比較安全, 所以先多人讀. 有好多人怕大抽獎抽唔到, 所以選 GH 起碼保險 D 咁解....

I think sometimes people choose school not because of academic results.

Some parents intentionally not send their kids to very top schools to avoid the 'pressure". My friend's daughter got admitted by DGS few years ago, but her daughter chose to study in an EMI school in N.T. instead.

SPC trains students to be presentable and confident but to some people, they are too "aggressive". (no intention to hurt anyone here, SP is a good school)Whether a school is good or not depends on your values on education.

SPC has 100 more years of history than GH, the 2 can't be compared.

小學就差唔多，可能德望好啲啲，但中學就聖保祿好得多。

作者: easybring 時間: 11-3-21 11:37

我一直有個迷, 唔明呀!!

點解ghs小學咁好, 我本身眼見p1 & 高年級的姐姐也乖巧有禮, 有心向學, 家長們又係緊張家長. 中學部資源充足. 而大部份(聽聞over 90%)直升中學部, 為何女孩子升上中學部會變差了很多? 可以解釋一下 or pm我也可以.

作者: siden 時間: 11-3-21 11:58

可以告訴我嗎？我都覺得迷惑，德望的成績不像太差，但那些什麼report 又話入大學率大跌。有冇德小高年級的家長提供第一手資料？
我估下，會唔會係德小primary 其實幾好，有d似maryknoll. 但因為升中時冇左selection mechanism, 好似maryknoll 升中唔係band one嘅就out, 所以中學成績拉低了。加上近年中學又走左好多好老師。
請賜教

作者: wiman 時間: 11-3-21 12:41

GH係直資, 升中

時點會冇左selection mechanism呀??

作者: happymami 時間: 11-3-21 12:48

其實, GH 唔係差既, 只不過而家攞佢同 ST Paul 比較, 真係無得比咁解姐.
如 GH 同一般學校黎講, 可以說 GH 是地區名校, 但如果用黎同全港名校黎講....實在差好遠...不過而家只係幼稚園, 我相信兩間幼稚園差唔多, 但小學/中學就...St paul 好好多.

Hope can provide some pointers for the concerned parents to consider.  This is basically a way to understand how to plan your children's education.

Basically both schools are traditional schools and they both are also the ONLY TWO Catholic girls' schools which secondary section became DSS.  So, they do have their similarities.

However, putting aside their kindergarten section first since GH has just re-opened recently so there are not enough information to make a valid comparison, their primary and secondary section has quite a difference.

SPCS, being the only band 1 girls' school on HK island to become DSS, has been able to have much greater control over how they can path the girls' way from kindergarten to secondary.  It is obvious that if we would have to compare purely on academic standard between the two primary schools, I would have to say GH should actually be having an edge over SPCS.  The reason is simply because the two schools are taking different approaches.  GH's way is to use heavy workload internally from the beginning to produce high standard of academic result.  I think SPCS's parents would agree too that they have less pressure internally thru workload during primary school year.  However, I believe many SPCS parents are all well prepared so they have enough supplement outside.  Also, girls are encouraged to participate in many outside competitions on their own so they have the chance to have a boarder visions from the early childhood.  So, this is obvious that these two are very different.

One key issue going from primary to secondary is this:  frankly speaking SPCS has an advantage being the ONLY girls' school on HK island which is a band 1 DSS.  GH, on the other hand, will have DGS and other girls' schools (no school fees) in Kowloon side as higher priority by many parents.  So, this explain partly why this situation happen where you will lose around 20% of your top students to the open market.

If look carefully, the school paths in HK island and Kowloon side is very different.  On HK island, basically if for parents who look for girls' schools, we would have made our choice early in kindergarten or primary time.  So, most of these children will stay with the same school.  However, for the Kowloon side, there are less seats available early on the kindergarten level and so choices are made somehow related with lucks at a later time so some parents may not get exactly what they want.  So, GH provide a good platform to prepare the girls for the S1 allocation, and so that's how these students may leave.

More to that, I believe truly that SPCS's method is indeed a very good one, less workload from kindergarten thru primary level inside of schools.  It is because you can tell from experience, very few kids will actually stay on top all the way from kindergarten thru secondary.  I am not saying there won't be any, but in natural fact some smart kids lose interest to compete on academic level after 9 years.....  So, SPCS has carefully managed the kids' motivation to only utilize it during secondary stage.  And frankly, although their pressure inside the school is lower during early time, parents nowadays are doing a good job to accompany external courses to ensure their children will stay competitive at a later time.  The only downside will be, those who really cannot cope with the program after 6 or 9 years, may actually be quite lost.

I guess this should help the parents to understand more of what can happen in different education environment.

Got some good point !

In the area of SPORT (i.e. swimming, track & field, etc.), GH always wins in either the 1st, 2nd or 3rd place amongst all other secondary students (girls) in HK. You know, DGS and HY are their major competitors.

GH has only 60 years of history, not too bad for a 'middle age' when comparing with those over 100 years old

Thank you Ian. I really agreed your points.

另外, 我想加一點個人感受. ghs一間學由幼稚園至中學, 幼稚園培養閱讀興趣, 快樂唱遊, 唱遊中學認字, 常識和品德. 小學重學術. 中學是有關注學術成績, 但也十分重視愛心, 感恩, 社會責任等, 學術不是唯一重點. 所以, ghs畢業生不是太喜歡"鬥", 沒有太多女強人出現.

睇spc也一樣不是要出女強人, 重成績, 也重品格. 若兩校真要比較, 地區也影響了收生, 銅鑼灣樓價總比東九龍高吧!

Since ＞90% GH primary sudden go to secondary, some of the students academically should not be band 1. You can't imagine >90% GH primary students are band 1 right?
And some of the top students may leave due to reasons as mentioned by Ian. So overall the GH secondary result may not be great.
However, GH music/sports achievement are certainly better than SPC. They are comparable to DGS in these non academic aspect.

Thanks Ian for your analysis.

作者: fcatherinehk 時間: 11-3-22 01:08

我朋友係名小學英文老師,佢個女幼稚園時讀SPK,但佢都幫個女報GH小學,我都覺得奇怪,問過佢,佢話GH嘅英文深過SPC.後來佢個女考到ST PAUL CO-EDU,DGS,GH,最後佢揀左DGS.
我本人都好鍾意SPK,覺得佢無論學術,校風及辦學經驗都好好,而且我好鍾意佢套校服,但唔收我個女.依家女女讀緊GH KG,再同多D層面嘅人士傾過,得知原來GH 嘅小學係真係好得嫁,不過成日都會有批學生中途插班去更叻嘅/同質素但免費的學校DGS,ST PAUL CO-EDU,MARYKNOLL,ST MARY.
到升中時係最多人走左去同質素嘅津校,ST MARY 同協恩嘅中學成績有部分係靠自行收生嘅學生提升的,因為佢地小學時係用中文教的,而GH小學的數學同常識係英文的,個底打好左到中學時都較易掌握.
一位協恩舊生朋友說中學時GH轉過去的學生D英文好過佢地大部分協小升上去的.
當然,我相信每間學校都有好叻嘅學生啦.我覺得只要讀到其中一間名校而學生成績可以保持中等都已經好好,我覺得品德係最重要的.我唔想個女剩係讀書叻但係黑人憎呀!如果一個人犯眾憎,讀書好叻/生得好靚/有好多錢,生活都唔會好過.

http://www.ghs.edu.hk/plans_reports/Annual_School_report_09-10.pdf

Referring to the good hope 2009/2010 annual report, you can see the entering university rate on page 9. What a disappointed! the university entering rate drop from 81.7% in 2008 to 39% in 2009. The HKU entering rate drop from 18.5% in 2008 to 2.9% in 2009. Although I think there is not relationship in kindgarten. But this reflect the operation looks having some problem.

I don't know why many people have such query to ask GH or St Paul is better. It is because I always think St Paul. is much better than GH..

Yes, 100% agreed.

It also reflects most of the parents' mindset in Hong Kong, including myself.

To rate the degree of 'fame' of a school, people usually look at her history, i.e. the longer the history, the more famous it is.  The more famous it is, people will be more eager to get it.  The more candidates there are, the school will have more choices to grap all the 'top guns' in the areas (i.e. academic, sport, music,) where the school are interested.  As a result, the school become more famous, famous and wealthy.  However, the process does not only take a few years, it might take over a decade to build.

It is just like a circle, that might explain why  DGS, SPCC are more welcome by parents.

However, when i am starting the school hunting for my child, I have changed my mindset somehow.  There are more important factors other than 'fame' of a school to my child's education.  The all-round education and moral education (to me, it is the most important factor) is what I am looking for.

Back to my primary/secondary days, I lived in Hong Kong side, I knew only about SPC, Marymount, but not any schools in Kowloon side.  But now, I am more open-minded to look for the good/bad sides of the schools  I am interested.

Both SPC and GH are good schools, and we are comparing 'apple to apple'.  I will then choose the one closer to home.  Long travelling time really makes the child suffer.

On the other hand, if I live in Kowloon side, to choose between GH and St. Mary (one-dragon), I will then go for St. Mary as it does not need tuition fee.

Yes, I am one of the middle-class in Hong Kong  .

其實我都覺得有小小奇怪, 如果真係好既學校, 學生和家長都唔會輕易轉校架, 始終小朋友一路讀上去係有自己同學(由其是係女仔, 她們與同學間既感情會好好架痳), 應該會對學校有強烈既歸屬感先岩架, 點解會因為要交學費而去轉校呢, 我覺得佢地由第一日選擇入入讀就知道要交學費架啦, 無理由為左唔使交學費, 而要小朋友重新去適應新學校/朋友/課程......是否還有其他原因呢!!! 還是真係要入去讀過才知道學校是否適合家長/學生.....

作者: easybring 時間: 11-3-22 18:12

要再睇多幾年, 家長們有沒有幫囡囡轉中學.  其實, 少了協恩津中一個選擇.

另外, 我大膽猜猜, 2009 form 7 畢業那批學生是2002年入form 1, 當時全球經濟不穩定, 可能家長轉向"官津"意欲比較高.  2003(SARS)-2004 收生也不會太好, 即2010-2011畢業的也未必有大進步.

近年, 經濟好轉而且考band 1官津也不易, 大家hold了ghs直資中學offer 也不能等round 1, so 我估呢幾年入小學的家長意願是直升中學部, 唔敢搏.  而這一批家長是願意付出1x年的學費的.  但, 也有部份家長安排海外升中.  再看多幾年吧!

The following assumptions must be true and consistent throughout the 15 years of study in the same school.

(1) The parents/ family financial status are stable and sound;
(2) The family do not move;
(3) There are no other siblings in other schools;
(4) The personality/ characteristics of the girls do not change;
etc....

there are plenty of things around the environment that will change which affect a family's decision.  It takes more courage to leave a school than staying in a school.  At the end, there are just 15% of primary schools are either one-dragon or feeder schools to their own secondary school.  So, I assume changing school is the dominated fact, and mainly contributed by the "wonderful" S1 allocation method designed by the EDB.  Try to collect more information on this perspective will certainly help on understanding how disastrous an environment has been created by such policy.

Particularly on (4), it is very dangerous for parents to make such assumption that the girls SHOULD BE staying on the same school throughout.  Although personally I have such preference too if it may, but I will never force my daughters to stay in the same school if I discover that there will be other schools which will be more suitable for their development.

So, I would suggest rather than questioning whether a school that is good or not, there is a more worth considering question of whether the same school is suitable for the children.  Because if parents don't make such assessment, then it will become an unfortunate experience for the kids' childhood.

Just for the record, I am not a GH parent and didn't apply for both kindergartens under this topic for my daughter this year.  However, I do suggest parents to be considerate for the feelings of the current parents of these schools during discussions.

I agree with Ian.

I really think SPC is better than GH, but I don't think the difference is that great to be 差幾班，唔同級。

如果小女有幸入讀GH primary, 又發下夢她名列前茅（Ian 唔好嬲我借個forum 發夢），我絕對會俾小女去interview 插班HY/St Mary 等津校。就算負擔得到，我不是富豪，想儲多點$，有間有質素的津校收，我會飛撲去。

GH kg 收了小女，我很感恩，但未必會讀。因為我不會太計較那間famous 或high grade, 我要的是最適合孩子和自己家庭的一間。入了不high grade 的又怎樣？誰說入了最high grade 的就最上等？只要小女在純樸environment 中長大，academic中上就ok。

My daughter and son studied previously in SPK. My daughter was lucky enough to get promoted to the Primary section.

Although none of my kid studied in Good Hope, I do think that Good Hope would be a good school. The purpose of my writing here is to provide my experience with SPK as a reference to you.

To my mind, the teachers in SPK are responsible and also very experienced. Taking the example of the classmistress of my daughter in K1 and K2, she successfully trained up the 30 kids in her class to be independent and discipline.  They show confidence when they interact with ppl.

You would find their teaching programs well designed - they spend quite a lot of effort to observe each kid and are able to provide comprehensive reports (around 6 1-2 page reports for each year apart from school reports) on each of them based on the observations on their programs through interesting activities.  You would in fact know something about your kid by the reports that you cannot observe yourself.

My son was not progressing very well when compared with the rest of his classmates in K1 and K2.  His teacher, however, did not give him up but in fact spent additional efforts looking after and encouraging him.  She also encouraged and urged us to give more patience to the little one.  We felt so lucky that he was not abandoned by his teacher (some teachers could only focus on those talented kids) that by K3 my son was back to the average performance curve under the guidance of the classmistress.

The school culture is also simple - they never requested parents to spend unnecessary money.  One can hardly spends a lot of money with this school.  The point I wanted to stress here is although quite a number of kids are from families with good financial background, neither the Kindergarten nor the primary section like promoting expensive culture.  The parents were requested by the primary school to use the old pencils in the kindergarten so that to discourage girls to bring back cartoon pencils for comparisons with each others.

The only concern on the kindergarten is that you would find that their homework quite little and too easy when compared to rest of the kindergartens nowadays. Should you want to have a smooth transition from kindergarten to the Primary section, I would recommend some tuition courses for the kids starting from K2 2nd term and K3, as the lives in SPK (loose and happy) would be quite different from SPCSPR (demanding teachers in the Primary).

In conclusion, you would find SPK to be a satisfactory kindergarten and I think your kid would enjoy going to school everyday. If transportation is not a problem to you, I would recommend you to let your kid to go to SPK.
