保誠調查:近七成受訪家長冀子女到海外升讀中小學 預算年均留學開支近80萬元
保誠(02378.HK)旗下保誠財險今日(29日)公布「海外留學規劃調查」結果,發現近七成受訪家長期望子女到海外升讀中小學,其中半數(51%)受訪家長計劃或已經將子女於中學階段送到海外升學,亦有16%家長將子女離港升學的時間提前至小學階段。
調查結果亦顯示,受訪者預計每年平均留學開支將近80萬港元(下同),包括學費(平均27.3萬元),其次為生活費用(平均18.5萬元)、住宿費用(平均17.8萬元)及消閒費用(平均14.3萬元)。即使有高達86%父母會為子女提供平均每月3.5萬元額度的信用卡,不少留學生仍會為了賺取工作經驗及生活費,趁在海外升學時參與實習(61%)或從事非體力勞動兼職工作(45%)。
三大最熱門的海外升學地點為英國(40%)、加拿大(16%)及澳洲(14%),而日本則是短期課程的熱門國家(19%)。另外,亦有三分一表示有意到海外留學的受訪者到海外留學,是為了陪伴同樣在海外讀書的子女。接近四分三受訪者(73%)表示自己或子女會趁海外留學期間四處旅遊,絕大部分受訪者(96%)亦預計自己或子女每年會回港渡假或探親,其中近七成會短暫逗留兩星期至兩個月不等。
保誠於今年7至8月以網上問卷形式訪問了共300名18歲或以上有計劃負笈海外留學的人士,以及已經或打算送子女到海外升學的家長。
