Back to the year my family applied for a seat from SPCPS, there were only 720 plus applicants and we did not know the number, not until the result was out.
That did not mean that SPCPS had worked hard to attract students or the school had improved a lot in the last 7 years. In my own opinion, it only means the parents are becoming more concern about which school their kids will go.
When we decided that our boy should go to SPCPS, rather than waiting for the 大抽奖, it was mainly because we did not want to face the 大抽奖 again in P6. Of course, the family made determination to keep the boy in the safety zone to be accepted by SPC. At that time, we were told by some parents that SPC was no more the used to be TOP TOP school due to the low brith rate of Western district and the "aging" of teaching staff, so on and so forth. But, we were also encouraged by many that the school still brings up good students, especially MAN with principles.
We sent our boy both with worries and anticipations. Also, we prepared to give time and extra resources. The primary school did not fail our expectations and it was a wonderful journey for my boy, not to mention that there were many great parents and boys.
Now my boy is in SPC and with eyes on the school for the past 7 years, SPC was what I had expected and still the same good school many old boys had in their memory. There were no 10 As but many important life-long memories and lessons. What the old boys treasured most, was the liberal environment there and I trust this important tradition is still being treasured and upheld by the school. You can read the SPC Principal's latest assembly address "Listen to the Boys" to make yr own judgement. It is a quality, I would like my boy to learn, not by doing past exam papers but by living in a environment.
No, it is not every parent of SPC will agree with me. The school, at least the Principal, has made clear statment that "marks" was not their top goal. Their goal, I trust that they are working hard towards, is preparing the boys for a fast changing world, with Christian faith. |
