11 歲去英國, prep or senior school

Hi,

I have following questions about studying in England and I hope those who have rich experience can help me, thank you.

1. My son is 10 years old. He will go to England to study at year 7 next year, the agent advised me to choose a prep school for him and she said that prep school can train my child for two years and then recommend him to a good senior to start year 9, is it true? But I think my son is an introvert child and he makes friends easily. I think that It should be OK for him to study in a senior school rather than a prep school. My son ranks 7th of a total of 37 and studying in a good primary school in Yau Tsim Mong District.

2. Under such circumstances, whcih kinds of school I should choose (prep or senior), is it trroublesome for my son to start a new school life in another school when he is at year 9 ?

3. Good senior schools will receive good child from prep school or just take those from 'relation- connected' prep school?

4. The agent said that she had submitted the application with my son's academic reports to my favoruite schools in England last week? But I am afraid that she DID NOT EVER SUBMIT any application for my son becasue she had strongly recommended a prep school (Millfield Prep School) to me. Any school recommendation?Prep or senior schools?

5. Any recommedation to what I should do?

Thank you very much for your help.

✔ 最佳答案
Prep School 通常學校規模較細,校長老師與學生關係密切,照顧較為週到。但year 9要轉senior school,又煩、又要浪費金錢去找新學校,學生又要重新適應新校生活,我本人會選擇一些既有prep school 又有直屬senior school 的學校如Somerset的 Kingswood。不要急於回應agent,若agent介紹的學校留位費不多,可先留位作後備,然後騎牛揾馬,記往!要小心選擇呀!

讀邊一班主要都係睇個小朋友追唔追得上同埋識唔識D野呀!
我過去UK讀書個陣, 係香港讀緊中二,
過到去讀佐一個星期中二之後比我讀中三,
而我個妹同我同一時間過去, 佢讀緊中一,
過到去都係讀返中一, 無得跳班呀!

所以學校都係睇返佢O既程度而作出編排呀,
有時都唔係話你想佢讀邊班就邊班呀!
