Applying the paramount welfare principle, the judge found bilingual education and improved Chinese competence, the shorter commute and potential psychological benefit of distance from parental conflict outweighed the status quo; extra tuition was unlikely to replicate CIS's dual-language advantage; the child's current expressed wish to attend CIS, considered alongside expert material and the family's circumstances, supported ordering transfer to CIS, to commence in the summer term 2020.
