GH English should be better.
School fees differs several hundred only.
GH is also 死谷.
I like 死谷, so I prefer GH.

I perfer 宣小 .

我囡囡是gh小一生。這一年來我都不覺得學校是死谷。功課平均都是5至6樣(有時更包括改正 )。測驗及考試前會有quiz,但功課會明顯少。

宣小 English standard is very high because students in P.1 also write complete sentences in the test. In P.2, students have to do 1 minute oral presentation ( only can see the picture for 2 mintues). In musical area, the standard in APSKT is much higher than GH. I know some GH girls still do not know phoincs in P.3. For me, of course 宣小:D :D

I do not know much about 宣小.

I have a friend whose girl is studying in GH.  The standard of GH is relatively high as they are studying one level up.

I agree that 宣小 is relatively more 死谷.  This attributes to the fact that it does not have secondary school and its students have to fight hard for Band 1 secondary school.

GH is said to be more relax in this area (but not that relax in general).

I would be more inclined to select a school that have secondary section that (1) I do not need to bother a few years later; (2) there is a trend that more and more good and reputable schools will become DSSs, hence, fewer choices being left a few years later.

Besides, one may have also to consider what is your target secondary school after 6 years in 宣小.  If it is one with similar "grade" or "level" as GH, why don't go for GH upfront.  I cannot think of many that could be better than GH except DGS, St Paul Co-edu but they are all DSSs.  There may be the chance of getting into Maryknoll but I am afraid places will be very limited as a majority of those is reserved for its primary graduates.

Since I am Catholic and mine is a girl, I will definitely go for GH.

Academically for your choosing the school in objective way, you could visit to APS web-site to see the past performance first.

You can see that some girls after P.6 could enter into DGS, St. Paul Co-ed, Heep Yunn, MCS, St. Paul Convent which are top band one secondary schools. The selection of APS or not quite depends on your consideration the probability of whether you kid could get in  apex of the class.

是否小一就要選定一種樂器, 學校一個學期收HK$3,700.00?  今年學費是多少?

宣小中文數學科又如何呢?  中文是用普通話教嗎?

大頭媽媽講的很中肯。我女兒都是這個理由忍痛放了宣小和SFA這些沒有中學的好學校。
我不知GH是不是比這等學校好,但有間幾好的中學做後備,對我來講太吸引了。

What you saw in the show might be the best performers of the school - might not be equivalent to that every student would have such standard.

There may be a group of academic performers and a group of music / sports performers, like DBX, LX.

我小女第個round入選了德望之後,我都放棄了去宣道面試了,而且沒有一點考慮。因德望有悠久的教學歷史(超過40年),而且歷屆畢業生都有不錯的成績,以及亦有Brand one中學做back up,加上校風出名好,我覺得大家也不要與宣小來比較,除非有兩姊弟或兩兄妹,但也不一定有幫助。
作者: littlecat    時間: 09-7-31 12:41

當年兩間都收我囡囡, 最後我揀咗宣小, 因為當時GH要分上下午班, 我就好唔鍾意, 今年GH會轉全日制, 可以考慮, 不過比我揀多一次, 我都會揀宣小, 宣小課程冇GH咁深, 我怕囡囡讀唔掂.

這估計並非事實,宣小大部份學生在樂器方面都有很好的水平.
作者: fionwong2707    時間: 09-7-31 21:38

Hello, ChiChiPaPa,

你好嗎? 囡囡上了中學沒有, 是否你一直心儀那所中學??

坦白說, 如果小女當年被宣小取錄, 我也會選它, 因為我較喜歡男女校及小女的幼稚園同學很多都進了宣小, 總有點情意結.

但現在囡囡在德望都讀得十分開心, 很多方面, 比我想像的好, 今年轉全日制及新校舍設備十分完善, 就更理想.

其實兩所都是很好的學校, 口碑都十分好, 所以每年都有家長提出這個主題發問.

iI watched the performance and I know they only picked two groups of students.  They  called them the day before the show.  And I can also be sure that they are really part of the many outstanding students who excel in both academic and musical achievement.

I agree both schools are good.  There are similar topics every year. I think it is more important to learn and understand each one's style and requirement.  Also important to match children's ability and character.  To decide and judge the school is very perosnal and no right or wrong.

My girl is neither studying in APS nor GH, but I find the following points:
1. In recent years, some 10As students were found coming from APS, (I got the information from other forum), for GH, still can't find relevant information.
2. The HKCEE result of GH (I don't remember which year, I just found it on its website), English result is really very outstanding, but for other subjects, compare with those of the EMI Band One Secondary Schools in Kowloon City, not outstanding at all, especially those science subjects, the results even fell behind. Maybe girls are usually weak in science.  (This is only the result of one particular year, just for reference)

It is because many top girls in GH have transferred to DGS, Maryknoll, St Mary, etc before Form 4. :

So are you saying that Goodhope is perceived as being behind DGS, Maryknoll, St Mary etc?
If not, why should their top girls leave for these schools?

Is it meaning that the students from GHS are very good enough to enter to these school not others?
At least, it proves that Good Hope school can educate very good student to go in these so-called elite schools.
just a kind sharing

Peter_Pan, Junior_Pam,

Both of your interpretations can be correct. As a coin has 2 sides.

I have heard a DGS parent saying that GHS's English standard is the highest among all schools in HK (including international schools!) - maybe a bit exaggeration, I think.

This parent's daughter studied GHS primary before and then DGS Secondary.

5* to 4 % (i.e A to C) for English in 2008 HKCEE from the websites of the following schools:

GHS                                        88%
DGS                                        98%
St Paul's Convent                100%
Marymount                              92%

5* and 5 % (i.e. A and B) for English in 2008 HKCEE:


St Paul's Convent                     61%
Marymount                                66%
St Paul's Coed (2009)             73%

I couldn't find the data for Heep Yunn and Maryknoll Convent; my guess is that they should be at least be comparable to GHS.

For GHS's performance in other subjects, you can check out the following link:

都要看學生自己本身的質素,不是在名校讀的所有學生都是很叻,也有墊底的一群(或不高不低的一群)。家長們也不要比來比去了,最重要是自己孩子能不斷進步,學校好不等於自己孩子一定比別人的好。
作者: Schoolbus26    時間: 09-8-19 10:29

真係要看看小朋友讀唔讀到書, 而且品行真是比成績重要.
