che, I don't have relevant data in hand though I guess IB is increasingly accepted by universities worldwide. If you are talking about the creme de la creme (the league of Harvard, Yale, MIT), I reckon few schools could claim a decent success rate (say, 8-10%). These universities only admit the very tiptop of students (depending more on the student than the school). I don't have strong views for/against management. Some parents say they are not good administrators. But I find it okay probably because I don't have a high expectation. More important, I find they are still walking their talk. They remain steadfast on their school vision - not easy for a new school or even for some established elite schools. |

Dear che, Please don't misunderstand that IB assessment can for sure your kid to get into the top U. whether in HK or other place. It just an assessment method which led to the school adopting it will/can not force the student to memorise the knowledge or repeatedly ask the student to perform mechanical work in order to increase their speed and accuracy. I think we are parent(s) to select some meaningful education to our kid, whether they can achieve top result will depends on their ability afterwards. For the confidence problem, CKY is the first PLK private school which you may/will feel they are using the school as some pilot study and if the result is good and worth to promote, other PLK school will follow the step in different degree depends on the constraint and school culture. I have great confident they will not let this pilot one sidetracked. For the school admin., you should not expect much since they just run for several years and still there is a huge project for them to face (move and rebuild school) and in the mean time they cannot stop the intake of student that led to the present difficult situation (two campus located far away). I can foresee lots of parent will finally not choosing CKY due to the traffic problem but the school cannot do much and just hoping that this "dark age" will soon elapse. Maybe you can say it's just like a test to the loyalty of the parent to the school :-) |

che, The school website reveals that all CKY teachers are U-grads, some with post-grad diploma in ed. So far, I'm happy with my kid's progress over the past 9-10 months. Both his English and Chinese teachers are great. I didn't really consider ISF - for its location (cyberport?) and its comparatively high school fees. But a friend of mine (an Islander) says her son enjoys studying there. |
