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.

Agree.. Zero tuition for my DS1..

For some, tuition can cost close to 1K per month.. :shock: :scared:

SCGS (Sch + Misc Fees)
O Level - $285
IP - $335

SJI (Sch + Misc Fees)
O level - $340
IP - $380
IBDP - $550

RI (Sch + Misc Fees)

$300 + $35 = $335

all depends on the kids and parents...... if the kids are top 1% with their absorption rate incredibly great, they can learn, understand faster and remember longer.... but for majority who are not top 1% but not giving up may have to turn to tuition.....

Hi Lego,


I was wondering abt the class size of independent schools. It's always good in smaller class. ds class has 44 students and only 16 girls in the whole class. The boys make so much noise that the teacher cannot teach!

Your DS in Sec Sch? You mean sec schs still have 44 per class, so big??

Today’s traffic seemed quite clear at SCGS. Could they be having their marking day?

Hi Club 2002 :hi5:


Seems like most kids are done with their exams except us, today is the start of DD's first paper only, 4 more to go... I am hoping for the best.

No marking day for us too.
