How would you rate Po Leung Kuk Choi Kai Yau School (PLKCKY)?
Po Leung Kuk Choi Kai Yau school is an excellent school, everything perfection since the last 21 years. From my daughter to my son, everything was great, I love the teachers, facilities, academics etc. it is just perfection.
The lunch arrangement is horrible. The school expects the entire y11 and 12 grade to cram in the canteen area for lunch. The canteen area is poorly ventilated, especially in summer with the scorching sun and the heat, many people immediately lost their appetite and have to bring a portable fan just to have their lunch. After lunch, all the y11, 12 have to cram in the school library to cool off. The school has to have a better lunch arrangement and organise better seating areas for students to have the lunch. Because the temperature ain’t going to fall any time soon, and the student size will only increase year by year.
As a student of this school, I will say that the quality of the school depends on which area you're looking at. This school is known for their motto "every child is good at something". It is known to offer a variety of subjects and let their students try out everything from food technology to STEM. This is particularly( and only ) enforced at lower grades( primary to lower secondary ). The school does concentrate and put most of their funding into the science subjects/ departments, while many students complain about a lack of facilities for subjects such as theatre, music, or art. This is somewhat understandable, as the school is famous for many alumni getting into science related industries, such as medicine. Many facilities in the school are broken, and they appear to not know where to use their funding in. For instance, many chairs are broken and the wifi connection is very poor, but the school chooses to replace all the doorknobs for a reason unknown to the student body. It is true that the school appears to invest in a variety of areas, but it is honestly mostly just for reputation(hence above I mentioned about how the school seemingly does not focus as much on art related subjects). Quality of teachers vary. Typically, for junior secondary, many of the teachers are bad at teaching. More experienced teachers teach at higher grades for igcse and ib, and they usually are better at teaching and are more passionate. However, primary school was extremely enjoyable and fun, an experience that you would not usually get for primary school. Many teachers quit every year, and there are rumours that teachers are mistreated. I will recommend for your child to join starting primary, but do not continue until secondary.
The teachers are very kind, and give a second chance after if you do something wrong.
Po Leung Kuk CKY is an amazing school! They have a special and fun way of teaching students. To teach discipline in their school, CKY uses something called “Star points” or “Group Points”. The higher the points are, the better the reward they will have! In PLKCKY, every child is good at something.
CKY can cultivate students with good thinking and analytical skills.
Teachers are really good
As a student studied here through Y1 to Y12, I genuinely have no idea where the hates in comment section come from. I graduated 10 years ago and never experienced any academic stress in CKY. Most of the teachers back in my time have probably left already so it's quite pointless to comment about specific teachers. I enjoyed the culture in campus, students are nice, too nice somehow, it was like they were the flowers in a warm house, never faced the dark side of the society. Above average academic achievement, decent amount of homework and exam. No smoker, drugs nor serious bullying spotted in my life is CKY, and trust me, I would know if they existed. I think parents would be glad if their kids join CKY. But afterall, who am I to comment? I'm just an outdated graduate.
CKY is a super bad place, ask me how I know? I work here. Most of the staff are lazy, incompetent, untrained, poorly educated and some are corrupt. Mistreatment of staff is commonplace, in fact if you are not being abused or mistreated there must be something wrong. They make up salary scales for people and make it impossible to leave. Its like a gulag. Management is very bad and purely self-serving. Students are good strangely....
Very good school to combine the benefit of both Chinese and Western learning culture.

Best possible school in the universe, virtual reality classroom, 4D learning experience, amazing teachers, and futuristic school facilities. Such as 4D printer, teleportor, jet pack school bags. Students end up with a average IQ of 400, and become leaders of the world.

Very poor organisation to work for. You will be treated like trash and regularly abused by the so called management. Kids are ok but the leadership and HR are awful. Many breaches of employment law. Best avoided.

Dubious HR practices. Most of the teachers are not qualified teachers. Bad place to attempt to have a career.
