| Actually, we have a lot of topics about SIS previously. Is it possible to search it? My son has studies at SIS since PY1 (aged 4) and he is now P5. SIS is good at both academic and discipline. You know, Singapore always have high standard in both areas. Difference from other international school: - a little bit impact of Singlish. (I don't mind it because it will be overcome by children easily) - it is quite strict In most int'l schools, students & parents are customers, and the school/teachers policy will be changed according to parents demand. It seldoms happen in SIS - Yes, it arrange P6 to study in HK local secondary school by HK govt Local famous schools? It depends...parents network, student performance & achievements. By my experience, SIS academic standard is extremely high, it is very difficult to get Grade A. The reason I choose SIS: - both academic & discipline standard - flexible promotion: local or international secondary school Hope this help! |

| hi chanms, tks for your invaluable comments to SIS. I have no doubt that both science and maths subjects are of high standard in SIS. In additon to learning singlish, my friend told me that the English standard of students does depend on teachers very much. He switched his son to GSIS because of this issue. is it true? regards, gogocat |

| At SIS, the English standard is very high, I don't think it is worse than other international schools. All SIS students successfully promoted to international schools. One of my friends' daughter, although she has a fair academic at SIS, she promoted to a local Chinese secondary, her English was the highest at the secondary school. Yes, teaching approach is much dependent on teachers. However, it is very difficult to comment on language learning. If our children can develop a good reading habbit, their English must be good! Most SIS switch to other international schools because SIS does not have secondary school. Morever, the academic pressure is quite high at the upper form. I guess, SIS maybe the most traditional and exam-oriented international school (of course, better than local schools), if parents don't buy this approach, they may arrange their children to others. |

| Actually, SIS will have a secondary school. My son is in P1 and we heard from the principal that they will start a SSIS in 07/08. They will run it in the current SIS premise, then will move to a new location in HK island. I plan to send my daughter there when she gets older. |

| Before SIS has confirmed to have a secondary school, I do consider my child to switch to GSIS and CIS, I know that these two schools are very good and very difficult to get a seat there. However, I heard that many SIS students can get a seat to these two school at their P4 - P6. Therefore, I am sure SIS's academic standard can meet their requirement. Just as your friend's child, if his son's english is that poor, will GSIS accept him? Other than English, Mandarin is also a important factor for us to choose an international school! Do you agree!
