Local English speaking schools?

[shaz]

My boy goes to a EMI School - a DSS one - St MArgarets. Good school with english as medium of instruction and chinese taught as a second langusge to those who are not local. Many different nationalities at the school.

DGS, DBS...etc

Gabriel - Hell would have to freeze over for DBS and/or DGS to admit non-Cantonese speaking students. They do have 'hal' Chinese students: but only those who are fluent and have attended a local style KG.

What's the school name?

Hi, Yes, There are some schools in the local system that are primarily English and are for local families who's children do not speak Chinese.
I am working for a local chinese school. They are having special classes for non-chinese students (NCS). They teach maths and GS in english.
And also they have after school classes (3:15pm to 5:00pm) for those NCS who can't finish there chinese homework at home.
If you want more information please send me a message.

Hi, there. I'm looking for local school which can teach in English, since my 6,5 years old can't speak Putonghua or cantonese.
Some of my friends suggest RHS, or KCS?

if it's a girl, can try St Paul's Convent School in Causeway bay. That's my alma mater. Back in the days there are girls who don't speak chinese and they take French instead of chinese. all other subjects are in english

No, my child is a boy. I've heard about St. Paul, and I plan it to my girl when primary school. My boy now is in DMS, but I little bit dissapointed it, and think to move him to others school. Any suggestions?

They are both English medium Primary school with very high standard of English requirements. (I think they are the top 10 primary school in HK)

Another choice:
St. Margaret's Co-educational English Secondary and Primary school 聖瑪嘉利男女中小學
St. Margaret's Co-educational English Secondary & Primary School
Around 20% of the students are non-Chinese.

Where did you get that from? I've certainly never seen a SMCE student who was not Chinese.........and they do Chinese Language/History in Chinese, and expect all students to complete these subjects at HKCE/HK+ levels.

Also - DGS and DBS will not admit non Chinese speaking/reading students for the same reason: they need all students to be competitive in Chinese Language/History at public exams
