請問有無青衣esf的家長可以給點comments?

你們的小朋友讀這間kinder, 小學是否都會選esf 的小學 ?
如讀這裡的kinder, 小一出去找local的學校又是否適合 ?

這裡上堂都是全英嗎 ?有多少外國人? 中國人 ?

謝謝給予意 ...

1. this is my only reason here;
2. I will not be here if i am thinking of local primary;
3. lessons are all in english except mandarin; most students here are Chinese.

我是這間幼稚園K2學生的家長, 真實的經驗是, 這間幼稚園的行政及教學都一團糟:

1. 在小一面試及各ESF Primary School Teachers 來校觀察學生表現前突然大舉調班, 現在不少K2的老師只與學生相處兩三周, 然後就要寫學 ...

1. As a K1 TY parents, I could imagine how angry and worried you (and the rest of K2 parents) are : experienced such a big change 3 months before intereview;
2. On the first day I've decided ESF TY, I will not expect too much on Chinese/Mandarin from the school (They have already mentioned in their website that there will be at introductory Chinese/Mandarin). As a Chinese parent (I thought u are too), I will be thinking alternative way to "enrich" my child Chinese (not only for Primary Stage but for survival 20 years later!);
3. "English Enrichment Program" : Don't forget while applying for K1, ESF kinder choose children by Categories and then rest are almost random. U can expect their are always be a group of children do not have good English background in PN stage; may do nothing "Enrichment" in K1 stage by the families. The school has already provided "English Enrichment Program" to strength them before P1 interview. I don't think we should blame at the school;
4. "Labelling Effect?" - as far as i know, ESF kinder keeps a very high hit rate to ESF primary (Please do correct me if i was wrong). No matter how messy the kindergarten run, as long as they can send your child to the ESF primary you desire (I guess it is one of important reason we send our children to ESF kinder) eventually, what else i can blame the school?
5. When u visit this forum later, you will be seeing so many Cat. 2 non-ESF IS kindergarten parents with no sibling priorities worrying of not having a chance for ESF P1 interview, U will be glad that you are not one of them just becuase you are one of ESF TY parents.
Anyway, these are all my personal feelings only.
