IAN,很多謝你嘅資料~

我的姨娚女是今年的k3的學生， 她媽媽告訴我今年大約有180人申請am section, 已扣除男孩子及夠分抽其他津校的女孩，但am section只收110~120人左右，而且還要預留一些位給外校生，所以最終只收了交form總數的5成多！而且往年不用interview，但今年開始要交portfolio, 很多不被錄取的小女孩都很徬徨！聽說am section程度較下午校高，所以很多家長prefer am section，所以競爭亦很激烈！而且三年後收生的標準或規則如何，說不定還會有變。

聽完後我更加動搖，擔心到時am section唔收，下午津校又唔夠分，三年後再去玩p1的遊戲實在沒有把握，而且我的是細女，一條龍的st clare始終很吸引！

Ian - 你有甚麼看法？ [ 本帖最後由 小黑牛 於 11-2-17 23:39 編輯 ]

haha, thanks for saying the approximate number so I feel less guilty not being the first one to talk about "number".

Those numbers you mentioned are quite accurate. The 110-120 you mentioned being offered consist of 108 are being offered at first (that's 36 seats per class for 3 classes) and 9 more are offered because some gave up after discretionary places. Those offered to outsiders are on top of this normal class limit only, so it doesn't really affected the students from SHCK.

One point I wanna clarify and this is funny. I am pretty sure the private section is not being aimed at by a great majority of parents. In fact, I know a lot of parents who prefer the gov't aided section (pm), as they would want to stay with Sacred Heart but may not be able to handle the speedy curriculum especially in P1. Also, some parents would prefer pm as they are working parents so they can at least "see" their kids as they go home for dinner.

I still remember not long ago there are plenty of parents worry the private section is too hard and pushy which they worry that they cannot handle. This is also one of the reasons why some parents don't prefer SHCK, as they would automatically associate the word "pushy" with it.

Anyway, the situation now is there is a group of 50+ students who are waiting for seats for private section (some of the waiting ones already got offers from DSS or other popular gov't aided schools). However, a part of these students are also waiting for gov't aided section which the results are not yet announced. Not to mention some of those offered by the private section already are also waiting for being lucky thru lucky draw. (Did I forget to mention they still allow lucky draw?)

Anyway, this is a very complicated number game which I think it is probably difficult to explain in details. However, I am still very positive that eventually all students will be able to get what they want before September.

And if eventually it can be handle this year as I expected, then it is already the most difficult year so I wouldn't worry for the other years.

Having said that, if the 100% guarantee is indeed more important, then I wouldn't want to ask you to take the risks too. I will also give up TL which guarantee admissions to P1 as after judging the different elements, I would accept this risk. But this is totally personal so everyone will have different consideration.

Hi bcbaby,

Thanks for letting me know you are also my "fans", may be I need to organize a fan club soon!

Very gd news for us! Thanks Ian!...For SHCSPS, there are 20 classrooms: so assignment will be 3-3-3-3-4-4. For two years out of every 6 years, they can use 4 classrooms. For you guys' case, fortunately you guys will hit one of the year with 4 classrooms. And this also explains why we have so much headaches for the current K3 students, since they are the one year with 4 classrooms of K3, but just 3 classrooms for P1. For your information, each class of P1 should be around 36-40 max capacity. So you can do the math.

Thanks for your detailed reply！btw，which section has a higher chance to get admitted by secondary school？ heard that the am section has a higher rate in admittion to secondary，also，more girls in am section can get the top school offer such as dgs，spcc and spcs？ and can you share which section you like the most ?

In our year, we have to pray not that many people choose am section, if not, we have to play again the competition game, right?
iantsang | 2011-02-18 16:15
I think I mentioned already (somewhere, haha) there is about a 10% diff on average concerning admission percentage to SHCC, (SHCSPS above 70% and SHCS above 60%). Of course these percentages can vary year by year. So just for reference only.

Honestly I dunno how many SH families actually targeted the other three popular choices you mentioned..... I am sure there are, but really not many. I know there is a case giving up DGS for SHCC. At the end, there won't be a lot. I think there was a year that many students don't wanna choose SHCC and suddenly so many head to St. Paul's Co-ed and DGS. But it has returned to normal now.

Whether to join the P1 interviews of other schools, I think this is totally up to each family to decide on their own, whether they have an offer from SHCSPS or not.

We aimed for SHCSPS all along as if you don't study in SH's primary, the chance to be admited to SHCC is totally by luck (and very very few seats).

I think that's a matter of choice for an individual. The allocation of FIRST CHOICE (not top three) was over 92% for SHCSPS last year.

Also, SHCC is a gov't aided school, allocation method is different from DSS schools as you mentioned. Again, a matter of choice.

I think the key is children are able to attend an environment which they see fit as they grow and develop. We never intend to limit our children's choices at the age of 3, but with certain range certainly (we are not planning for international school for instance).

I hope this message can be a reminder to other parents, which I partly responsible of, for promoting the concept of one-dragon. No need to get carry away of it is a must to stay with one school, especially when the families find not suitable to continue.

I thought the % was about 80% - I over estimated. Then it seems that if the focus is on one dragon to secondary, SP and GH seem to be safer.
