Advancement Expert: Parents can be more enterprising in choosing schools under the tide of immigration
According to figures from the Education Bureau, there will be student losses in different classes in the 2020/21 school year.
Senior education expert Zhao Rongde predicts that under the tide of immigration, some high-income families who choose prestigious schools or DSS schools for their children may choose to leave Hong Kong, which means that some prestigious schools may have more vacancies.
The degree of self-allocation is based on the "scoring method criteria" to determine the order of admission of students.
Zhao Rongde pointed out that in the past, even if there were 25 points, "the same score must be drawn." 20 points are even more "not good enough."
However, he took the immigration wave before 1997 as an example. He pointed out that in those days, parents held 20 points for their children to enroll in popular schools and also successfully obtained admission. This year parents) can try to scare.”
However, Zhao suggested that if parents want to be more secure, with 25 points under the scoring system, they can try to choose a traditional prestigious school, and 20 points can choose a regional prestigious school without a religious background, or consider enrolling in the parents’ "alma mater" for their children.
Popular traditional prestigious schools also compete for parents without being affected by the social environment
According to the "scoring method", school-age children receive 10 points, and 5 points for the first child born.
Another senior education expert Liang Yongle believes that although there may be more vacancies in the immigration wave, the competition of popular traditional schools will not be reduced as a result.
Even if 15 points are held under the scoring system, "the chances of (entering) popular schools are quite small, and they are all superimposed on the lucky draw."
He believes that parents do not need to be affected by the general social environment, and the most important thing is to choose the school they like the most.
Liang also suggested that parents can adopt the "111 strategy", that is, to allocate places by themselves and choose the same primary school for both the heads of A and B in the unified allocation form.
