"Birth certificates should be produced when parents or guardians

go to the schools to obtain application forms," Mr. Yeung said.

All completed forms should be returned to the school named as

the first choice on the form on or before May 31.

Selected candidates will be informed by letter on or before

June 22 and interviewed on a date specified by the school heads.

Mr. Yeung said:

"Children will normally be admitted to schools

serving the district in which they live according to the zoning system

used in previous years, unless the places in a particular school have all

been taken up.

"Care will be taken so that children from the same family are

not separated."

He pointed out that places in police primary schools would also

be available to children whose parents were not members of the Royal Hong

Kong Police Force.

The Assistant Director advised the public that "application forms

are free, no entrance fee is charged for admission to any government school

and no tuition fee is charged in any government Chinese primary school,"

Mr. Yeung said he would be making a further announcement shortly

about the admission of pupils to primary 2 to 6 in government primary schools.

Parents should not apply for places for their children in these classes until

the announcement was made.
