| Hello, I think it is too sensitive or political about this topic. it is not a simple issue. You know, logos acamedy is still sposnorsed by HK Government, and I heard from Principal that LA students must have to apply local exam; you can imagine you are using HK Governement money but you are allowed not to buy hk education system? secondly; I check one of U in HK (HKU), their reply is that you can use IBD result to apply HK universities but you will be regarded as foreign student group and compete with oversea students for those 20% seats (max 20% this year); you can imagine again that all HK universities are sponsored by HK Government and all hk univerisities should treat higher priority for HK local students with local exam . thirdly, LA principal prelim said that students must take hk local exam but optionally and encouraged to take IBD; the concept has been changed than before actually. fourthly, it is real that it is not easy for students or school to manage 2 different kind of curriculum (IBD & HK local exam); the reason mentioned by other parents; so, the principal has to find out a solution asap for this issue. and this solution is highly influenced by HK government about their policy for school and also affected by the admission policy of hk universities (but this one will be influenced by HK government also) |

| Dear Horay1: Thanks for your sharing. My son is Logos student. IBD is Adv or Dis-adv for HK student is NO answer now. Because we don't have any student take two exam from Logos now. It depends on your point of view. Some local famous school such as DBS, St.Paul Co-ed and Yiu Chung is to encourge IBD. Some had dropped this program (HKUGA). I think if you believe it won't successful. HK still have so many good school run local new high school diploma. Here, I want to thank-you so many Logos parent spend many time to expand the IBD system. HK Goverment has are rule to control all HK DSS secondany school must follow the local new high school diploma syllabus. Therefore, all DSS school must provide that course. Moreover, some school want to offer another IBD course for student. Get it or not is up to you. It is good or not good depends on how you think about it. I choose Logos depends on their teaching method is good for my son. Not the IBD syllabus. If everyone think IBD is the most important things. I suggested that they should consider again. Happy New Year. |

| Dear all, The main idea of using IBD syllabus is to allow students to reach a standard of which enable them to compete with students all over the world. I can't see any reasons that our students cannot take both exams and achieve a good results. In old days, we take HKAL, GCEAL and SAT. You won't be suprised by the results. They are always in line with each others. Judging by the current standard of the students in Logos, I am not worry about their future competitions in entering local or foreign universities. Logos provides good education to our children. Of course, it is always up to the parents to choose the right school for their children. If you are not convinced by the ways Logos educate their students. Make you own choice, there are still a lot of options available in HK. |
