          No. My boy eats during the recess everyday but he never complains about canteen seating space. He is in P1. I understand from him that the tables are allocated accordingly to class. They are not allow to seat anywhere they want. Not sure is it the same arrangement for upper primary classes.

                  very relaxed, no exams, no homework most of the time.

                  Interesting - my husband has a colleague whose boy is in P1 at Maris Stella and he seems to have more homework than his friend who is at Rosyth.

                  We will be registering our son next week and his brother will follow next year so I hope that \"scang\" is right 🙂

                    Yes, there is no exam, for P1, and first half of P2 I think, due to the ever changing Education Minister and his philosophy of MOE curriculum.

                    There is CA or continuous assessment like tests, but other than that, hardly any homework. You probably need to plan some \"study\" or \"learning enrichment\" at home, else they will probably watch tv or play.

                    As for HCL, yes, probably at P1 it is still very much manageable, but this is up to individual child, but the later years, it will be much more difficult?

                    The environment is pretty much conducive, just be aware of any bully if any.

                      Maybe different teacher has different method and style, but in general most do not give that much homework.

                        Hi Scang, are there major issues with bullies? I've come across parents commenting about similar problems in the other forum threads, it seems quite common in boys schools
