I think that almost all ISs would give out summaried syllabus to parents in the beginning of the school year --- at least this is what I know of.

I think the ESF did and still does follow the British curriculum. I have friends with children in the ESF schools too. I do not know whether it is merely the individual teachers, but my friends were directed to a certain british website for information of the curriculum.

The information on the internet is very brief and simple but I remember seeing a thick handbook (shown to me by a teacher) showing very detail description of what the children would be learning throughtout the year. I think the handbook is not supposed to be given out (or may be even shown) to parents but if parents ask, I am sure the school would (and should) at least give a summarised syllabus to parents.

I remember that the handbook was very detail, listing what is to be taught, at what time. For example, they have very clear guidelines as to when the children would be learning, say, multiplication, and when division would be introduced.

I think if parents really want to know, they can always talk to the school.

leehoma001, I enjoy reading your posts since you are always so generous in sharing your views and information you have.

I think we all know that the ESF and SIS are different. It is very diffucult to compare 2 totally different things. Like some people prefer BMW, but others might still stick to Mercedes.

Everyone has their own criteriors, and thus would have different choices.

In my opinion, both BMW and Mercedes are nice cars; and likewise, both ESF and SIS are good schools. I think there must be reasons why they all co-exist here. And the good thing about the present Hong Kong is that, we can still have choices.

My kid now seldom reads the two pocket science books published by Usborne as he already finished reading them half year ago. He is now interesting in reading a series of student encyclopidea containing 20+ books as I mentioned before.

I think you better carry out again a more detail, in depth research about the teaching method, curriculum and administration of the schools of ESF to find out why they can produce students with quite even and high academic results among the different schools. May be you need to consult education psychologist again as well.

It is true that QBS or ESF primary follows the British curriculum. However, I don't know whether it is exactly the same or have some modifications as QBS doesn't give me the details nor asks the parents to check on the UK websites.

I totally agree with you. I chose SIS not because she is better than any other schools (including ESF) but that I think SIS is more suitable to my kid and she can provide education to him up to my expectation. Most of the international schools in Hong Kong are good schools. Another good thing still exists in Hong Kong is that we can still express ourselves freely.

最近才有空回應各位關於仔仔在學校情況, 仔仔己適應學校生活, 但最近仔仔好唔開心, 常說沒有同學同佢玩, 好lonely, (之前佢本來說有好多朋友的, 但近這一個月就話只有一個肯同佢玩), 我都有d擔心可能是佢英文問題令到這情況出現...我就鼓勵佢主動d, 佢說有, 但沒人so 佢, 我的心聽到佢這樣說都心痛...

佢這幾日都有這樣說, 又要我問老師, 我昨晚都sent email 了解情況, 現等待回覆.
