Starting from the next school year, the school will suspend Secondary One and Secondary Four and arrange students to transfer to Sham Shui Po Kowloon Attended at the Industrial School (referred to as Jiugong).
The Longxiang Official School held a parent symposium in the evening today (25th) to explain the merger arrangements.
Many parents bluntly said that they were stunned by the news of the "killing of schools." Some parents said that their sons faced the killing of schools and were deprived of the opportunity to re-enter Secondary Four and re-select subjects. They criticized the Education Bureau for insufficient support: "Last year, there were no resources. If you go to a favorite subject, you can re-read it if you don’t like it, and the family is exploiting the opportunity to re-read it!” Some parents urge the Education Bureau to provide a list of vacancies in schools in the same district, and hope that schools with vacancies will give priority to admission of Longxiang students.
There are also some parents who think that after the symposium, there is a lot of relief and peace of mind, and there is a good chance that their son will be transferred to Jiugong.

The son was twice affected by the school killings
Mr. Yu, a parent who attended the lecture, said that his son who was in Form 4 was an old student of the closed Kowloon City Lok Sin Tong Primary School. Due to the lack of resources of the Lung Cheung official lieutenant school, his son failed to study his favorite subject in high school and intends to re-enter Secondary Four next year. However, the Education Bureau suddenly announced the killing of the school, obliterating his son’s chance to re-study, and criticized the Education Bureau for not providing support for them. Question! Killing the word kills it, killing the school affects me, but you can't help me!" Yu Sheng also questioned the Education Bureau's plan to kill the school and the school was deducted resources.
As for the junior high school students who will be transferred to Jiugong, Mr. Yu said that the principal of Jiugong stated that he could not arrange the same class for Longxiang students, saying that the arrangement did not take care of the students’ feelings: "If a new principal has strong adaptability for students, it is impossible to transfer the school to the same class. , I don’t want to take pictures of each other!"
Mrs. Leung, whose daughter is in Secondary Two, criticized the forum for not being very helpful, and hoped that the Education Bureau would provide information about vacancies in schools in the same district or nearby schools, so that students in need could "knock their doors."

Does the Education Bureau give me support? Many parents are under investigation after listening. Check!"

Grandmother: All three grandchildren are affected and very confused
Granny Chen said that the three grandchildren were in Form 4, Form 3, and Form 2 respectively. Because the news came suddenly, a parent meeting was held two days after the announcement. The parents were too late to ask for leave. She was present on behalf of the parents. She learned that Jiugong was far away from the residence and felt confused: "So unhappy, three degrees, IKEA doesn't know how to count!"
If the teacher is transferred or downgraded, the school must be transferred
Ms. Liu, whose daughter is currently in Form 4, is also shocked and apprehensive about the killing of the school. She bluntly announced that her daughter "is not very emotional" after the killing.
