Financial impact
He said his family could afford the cost of sending her in a foreign country (150,000-300,000 yuan per year). Him and his family are tired with the Chinese system which tends to put pressure on kids and focus only on academic scores versus their child overall development.Alex Zou, CEO of Vancouver Public Education Alliance, company which helps Chinese family to send their pre-Grade 12 pupils studying at public schools in the Canadian province of British Columbia. His business has doubled every year in the last past few years.Most of the children he helps study at high schools but some of them really move at a young age (some of them go to kindergartens).“High school students we serve only need to pay about C$24,000 (HK$150,000) a year, including tuition and board, which can easily be covered by many Chinese families,” Zou said. “I think studying in Canada has become an ‘education for ordinary people’.”
