In view of the decisions on control of entry outlined in this
chapter, it is now intended to retain the existing feeder quota of 85
of allocated places. Since tests and examinations for entry to Primary 1
are to be replaced by a less competitive system, the advantages of
continuity of study can be attained without producing additional pressure
on children seeking to enter these feeder schools.

It is also proposed that there should be no academic hurdle on
feeder or nominated school allocation. (At present, only children of high
academic ability are eligible.) Schools may thus in future accept the full
quota of 85% or, in the case of nominated schools, 255, irrespective of
the ability of the students. However, secondary schools will not be
compelled to take their full quota if it is considered that it would create
too wide a range of ability in the school.
7.22
It is further proposed that once the effects of control of
entry and the removal of the academic hurdle on feeder and nominated school
allocation can be properly assessed, consideration should be given to an
extension of the feeder and nominated school systems. The ultimate target
should be the merging of the two types of allocation and its extension to
as many schools as possible; however, it is stressed that this should be a
very gradual process, closely tied to the rate at which secondary schools in
the public sector become more comparable in standard.
7.23
It is not intended to comment on any of the other proposals
of the Working Party as the recommendations are currently open to public
debate.
