For our case, basically the focus is on either private or gov't aided schools.
The research began along the selection of kindergartens, so my elder daughter was just over two at that time. The reason to start early is you will be likely excluded by a number of schools if the way was not paved with the entrance of related kindergartens. So, if you would like to keep the option open, then it is necessary to (1) know the schools and (2) know the allocation system well (both primary and secondary).
To begin with the basic info, use www.chsc.hk to get to know the basic information of kindergartens, primary and secondary schools. Then, study info from www.edb.gov.hk for allocation system. These are key elements which must know before you can decide how you want to "play the game".
Of course, at the end, must understand what the family need and suitable for. No schools are perfect for everyone. So, there are a lot to consider.
Personal development is a lifelong process. The reason why the press would use the term 贏在起步點 is because some parents would focus on the achievements on certain hard skills (which are easily measurable) rather than soft skills (hard to measure and take longer time to see the outcomes).
There is a fixed amount of time available, so when you focus on certain aspects in a greater deal, that means it will lose the balance. And that's exactly the social problems we are facing right now.
Although I don't agree with this notion personally, I would not say this is wrong. It is the decision of each parent to decide what is the suitable way.
2y => understand the system in HK and what you prefer, and choose the right kindergarten
K1 by June => check on the discussion about allocation of P1
K2 by June => prepare profolio
You have to set a schedule for yourself to process but most important, raise up your kid in a proper way.
I never visited any school but talked to people who knew the schools.
