my niece is studying in Marymount Secondary School.  There were 1/3 of her primary school classmates were rejected when they promoted to Secondary school.

so there is a risk you need to take if you choose Marymount.  If your daughter is good all around, Marymount is free which is very attractive.

my 2%.

Marymount :
- 津貼，六年唔駛交學費
- 校舍新又夠大，遠離鬧市，空氣好D
- 現任校長教學管理好，家長支持，傳統得嚟亦較開明
- 學生行精英制，只有約5-6成能直上中學
- 跟教署要減每班人數，近30學生一班
- 英語教學
- 整體校風較開朗（只是兩者比較上的差異）
- 多數要補習
- 道聽途說中學近年比較沒有聖保祿般好
- 功課、默書、測驗、考試煩重，家長要有準備
- 冬季校服件長褸jacket幾型

St Paul's Convent (Primary) :
- 私校，每月約$2500，六年要比約$150,000學費
- 校舍夠大，空氣一般，交通方便，放學可即刻行去補習社
- 多數要補習，附近兩間最hit補習社長期waiting list
- 絕對傳統修女式教學模式
- 英語教學，近年加深中文程度
- 整體校風較傳統（只是兩者比較上的差異）
- 約8-9成學生能直上中學
- 書單課本程度一般，但課堂上會派好多補充練習
- 大班教學，近40學生一班，老師好難睇得晒，學生要靠自己多D
- 中學教學名聲及成績維持極佳
- 功課、默書、測驗、考試煩重，家長要有準備

如果經濟許可, 當然St. Paul Convent. 但一般家庭, 我會選Marymount. St. Paul Convent 中學小學都要俾錢, 慳返哩啲錢用黎補習及課外活動都好呀.

如果”錢”不是考慮因素，又不介意比較專制的學校政策（例如不準送飯／不鼓勵家長間多交流溝通／不準為學生送交漏帶的功課或課本／家校沒有特別交流溝通-i.e no news is good news)．為確保升中無煩惱，宜選SPC.

Dear Axxxx and Old sim,

Besides school fees, all the points mentioned by old sim, I want to share with you about those points.  SPCS is training the students to be more confident, responsible, independent and care to others.  My girl is P2 now.  I am quite worried at earlier stage like they need to handover the form to office, change uniform by herself.......But they can make it within short time!!

I have the same questions with you Axxxxx, I finally chose SPCS because the learning atmosphere is not that stressful, more flexible. You don't find yourself being discriminating or ashamed if you are not doing well in subject.  You have room to improve. Of course you cannot fail.

With frequent changes of the education system(primary to sec), I don't want to take any risk or girl need to be a exam machine in order to stay in BAND 1......sort of problem that you always find in subsidy school.  You can PM me if you want more details!

Hope this can help!!

回應oldsim,

你嘅description 都幾幽默, 不過我又覺得學校咁做都OK. 我女初初發覺帶漏書本都馬上要call 我送去學校, 後來知道要到校長office 取件, 她會先量值不值得才這樣做, 普通功課就算, 帶漏美術用品而上堂會被老師責駡兼冇得上美術堂, 她寧願扣conduct mark 也向我求救.  This is a training, train the kid to be more careful and independent, and be responsible to her own action. 校長也不是"不鼓勵家長間多交流溝通", 我記得她是不鼓勵家長透過其他家長去了解自己女兒在學校的情況.  唔准送飯無問題呀! 過千學生同時午飯, 地方and logistics都是問題.

OldSim

這些政策在我來說完全沒有異議，但我知道真係有家長因所講原因而放棄升讀SPC，所以才提，以免入讀後才不滿或後悔．

其實SPC妳已bingo咗，進取D有20分去博MPS亦無可厚非，很多人想報SPC也不得其門而入，妳囡囡由SPK升上SPC已很難能可貴。可能妳有兩個囡囡關係，所以長遠學費因素也需考慮。

以我看第一round報MPS，25分有70-80%，20分有40-50%，15分是0%。

why 25pt only 70-80% and not 100%??
if that is the case the 20% should be 0...

睇嚟妳都唔係好明「自行分配學位」的機制，首先學位會先派左比「甲」部那些「世襲＋員工位」，而呢D世襲＋員工位係唔駛計分。跟住先會輪到計分位，而計分位最高可以攞到35分。如果我講得唔清楚妳可以去呢到睇吓：
http://chsc.edb.hkedcity.net/primary/?file=chi/district.htm&district_id=3
所以計分競爭來說，次序會是35分-->30分-->25分-->20分-->15分，以MPS來說第一輪只有55-60個學位，會有幾難？可以自行想想。
（以上難度亦適用於全港其他熱門小學）

I know. But if 25pts is not 100% then 20 should have 0 chance.

20分不會是0 chance，不過肯定要抽籤。

ziyi

但收生規則是一定要先收分數高的,如果25分的都要抽,因不是100%收的情況下,20分應該一定沒有機會

我想我跟wootaiwai不明白的是這樣

定你說的是不同年度?因為我聽聞聖家等,有些年份15分有機會抽籤入,有些年份要20分才入到
