Happy Mothers Day!

Maybe some parents already aware but just to share that the fees for independent schs are much higher than gov schs. Perhaps can find out more about the various scholarships available during the open house.

Actually the fees are posted on the schools' websites. Did a quick google:

RGS $300 (excluding supplementary fees)
ACS $325
MGS $335
Nanyang $312.50
Hwa Chong $250

Seems expensive but still cheaper than what I am paying for the pre-schooler :moneyflies:

my friend ever told me that coz the approach is so unlike the normal O level, it’s not easy to find suitable tutors. So the kids relied mainly on their teachers…after all, they are mostly clever kids.


So in the end, it actually cost less going to Independent schools coz of the $$$ saved on not having tuition.

Oh, just heard that SCGS Open House is in November. Haven’t heard any announcement on the program.

Btw, does anyone know if the class size of these independent schools are smaller than those of government schools?

I heard from a mummy whose child is in SST, that the class size is less than 25. (Unlike dd's current P5 class which has more than 40 kids and the children do not get much individual attention. )
