英華小學家長

csk, kc2733,

真係好啦，大家都有同感，我仔以前間學校逢測驗/考試前係好少、好少功課，我諗等下次家長會，要同學校反映。

重有，我同其他同級唔同班既家長傾過，原來大家既默書時間唔同，而默既課文都有快有慢，d教師好似各自為政咁，方針究竟係唔係一致呢?

Dear Ying Wa parentes,

I found the following message on Ying Wa pages:

本校招收 2003-2004年度小一至小五插班生
派發及交還申請表格日期
1/12 - 10/12
申請表格可到本校索取或網上下載

Anyone tell me what's going on? Can they accept P.1 插班生 at this moment?

ambrose:

英華小學現正招收今年"下學期"的插班生。小一至小三將會一條龍上英華書院；小四至小五不是行一條龍的，只會案照傳統的政府升中派位安排升中。

Sorry, I mean the school cannot accept P.1 at this moment. It should be unfreezed after central allocation.

In addition, the total position for coming P.1 should be 160 for 5 classes. Does it mean there may have have more than 32 students per class if they accept 插班?

公開招收小一至小五下學期插班生?好像並不常見,是因為增加了學額,抑或是有人退學?知不知道收多少人呢?

ambrose,
可否提供網頁下載插班生資料, many thanks.

有否P.3 家長可提供多些學校資料, 如一班人數 ? 英文科深嗎? 功課多少 ? 默書測

H&SMOM,

Thank you for your information. I am not familar with the school administration since my boy admitt on next year.I do not worry about the academic standard since I think it is one of the way to "Dilute" the effect of central allocation.

However I worry about the number of pupils. I think 32 is an ideal figure. If the school accept more than 35, I think the teaching quality will be impacted.

有關英華小學招收 "插班生" 一事，大家看這份通告便清楚：

I've read the memo. This make me relief. At least there is no student withdrawn. I can say the school make the application in an open and fair way but it may induce worry and query. So communication is necessary.

BTW, I found that the number of P.1 is 161 and P.2 is 159. Does it mean one of the pupil who "Stay" at P.1 one more year?

Hi Ambrose,

All the P2 & P3 students is a new comer in this school.  That means no P1 student is "repeated" one more year.  

According to the "arents Meeting" that held on 18th Oct, 2003.  The Principal said that there are over hundreds application still waiting for the P1-P3 admission.

Ambrose,
This is what I 'guess' on the extra 1 student in P1.  I met one of the parent before and she had her elder son accepted into P2/3 but her younger son was allocated to another school by central allocation.  So she said she would 'beg' the principal if she could consider to allow his younger son to be accepted into YingWa.  Maybe she successed.

If it is true, how nice does our school. Hope my boy enjoy the school life. But I worry about the hardship because some parents told me that there are about 8-10 homework daily. Does the primary section push hard on their students in order to keep the high stadard of secondary section?

ambrose

Thanks H&S Mom. I think it is difficult to set a baseline for the requirement. Too simple then low standard. Too complicate then too demanding. I think the most important is "San Chow See Cow" (teaching based on individual capbabilites). Anyway, See U in Ying Wa.

ambrose:

你的意思是 "Yan Choi See Gow"(因材施教) 吧。
^_^

ambrose

Exactly.

Hi H&S Mom & Ambrose

Thank you for your message, especially those discussions from H&S Mom, which are very informative.

I agree with the message H&S Mom said about the standard of test paper.  I would very hope each of the parents of Ying Wah could be more united to build up this school.  I believe children have strong adaption ability (especially with the help and support of parents), they will adapt and learn well with the newly devised test papers and style.

Cheers
WC Mom
