A look

School management:

School management is poor , reflected in the details. When you go to the classroom, you might as well look at the layout of the classroom. When you go to the dormitory, you might as well see whether the quilts are folded and whether the floor is clean. There was a weird parent who was even "conquered" by the school bathroom.

Second look

Philosophy of principals

There is a big difference. Some principals are retired from public schools, and some principals are within the public school system. Some principals come up from private schools step by step, and everyone has a different style. When visiting a prestigious school, if you have the opportunity, chat for a few words and you will know if you have a match.

Three things to look at:

School spirit and study style:

School spirit and study style are intangible, but they are tangible. You can see this from the behavior of students when they meet teachers and principals, as well as from the school’s slogans, evaluation scores, and various posters. The easiest way is to ask the previous parents.

Teaching staff:

For students with the same score, in this school, the teacher does this, in that school, the teacher does that , the difference between the two approaches directly affects whether students have the potential to enter high school in the future. Take "homework" as an example. Why do some private schools have so much homework that students are almost exhausted, while some private schools carefully select and control the amount of homework, and even the homework is compiled by the teachers themselves? This is actually the teacher. Differences in teaching methods and, generally speaking, differences in study styles.

Five things to look at

Class division situation:

Some schools are not divided into key classes, but some are divided into key classes and ordinary classes. They have different names, some are boutique classes, some are experimental classes, etc.

Six things to look at

High school entrance examination results:

Many private schools have very good high school entrance examination results, with very high average scores, which are difficult to compare with public schools. But parents should not only understand these, they should also ask students which schools are their future high school options, and which schools the students ranked in the bottom 20 in grade will eventually go to.

Seven things to look at

Admission policy:

This refers to the high school entrance examination.

Although the high school entrance examination is relatively fair, private schools still have some "small policies". For example, some private schools have direct promotion classes, and students can go directly to the main high school. Some top students can sign up to enter key high school classes. You can pay attention to these. .

Bakan

Foreign language ability:

Although the high school entrance examination is very important, in the junior high school stage, it is important to develop a foreign language ability, especially learning a second foreign language , is also very important. This may be related to your future vision, or it may be related to your happiness index in life.

Jiukan

Application details:

Such as accommodation and day study, such as tuition fees, such as scholarships, such as students with special talents, etc. For this, find a piece of paper and make a list. When visiting famous schools, ask them one by one, so that the trip is worthwhile.
