YCIS vs VICTORIA

YC-MOM

I think if we are to merely look at the new YC campus in Hong Kong per ce, then I would say that it is quite impressive. But a school is much more than hardware. The qualities students and teachers would make up the general quality of a school. Make a visit to YC secondary before deciding whether it is really worth it. YC secondary is a total local Cantonese speaking community. Students are mostly dropouts of local schools and most are unable to really speak proper English. Even the teachers are mostly local Canotonese speaking teachers with very poor English. Check out some older discussions of YC.

ALMOM 講了重點 ---- YC 始終較其他 IS 差。

要討論 YC，恐怕可以有排講，有興趣，就找找舊 POST，我和很多 YC 家長都分享過我地的經驗。

我唔會一面倒話叫人唔好讀 YC。因為真係要睇每個人的情形，每個人的要求。坦白講，YC 也有他的市場。

YC 主要有幾類學生：

(1) 在 LOCAL SCHOOL 讀唔上的學生。
他們水平差，甚至 CONDUCT 差；不要說是否有足夠應付國際學校課程的英語水平，有很多甚至只係 BAND 2 尾的學生。很多學生升唔上英中，但父母不甘心，就比孩子讀 YC。

(2) 讀 LOCAL SCHOOL，唔係讀唔上，但只係想轉讀國際學校。其實好多都係咁，孩子不是讀唔上，只係家長心痛孩子的 WORKLOAD，就諗住轉去 IS 插班，可惜其他 IS 門檻都很高，只有 YC 係 "先到先得"，肯交留位費就有得讀，話名係有 ADMISSION TEST，但係個 TEST 亂寫都收 ( 有朋友的女兒，兩年前考 YEAR 8，佢話個 TEST 好難，佢唔識做，只有亂寫，但結果都收佢 )。

(3) 有些學生係在本地名校讀開的，希望先在香港轉讀非本地 SYLLABUS，然後再往外國升學。

其實，唔可以話 YC 全部學生都差，其實個別的確有少數質素較好，但高質素學生，真的很少，其他大部份都係差。因此，無論係學校，或者是學生/家長，都唔好因為 YC有一個半個學生成績叫做見得下人就沾沾自喜。YC 整體水平係點，大家心裡有數。
