Crescent Girls' School

Hihi, just to check... Is the teaching at crescent girls lower sec adopting a teach less n student learn more approach? Bec happens to hear from friend that her gal's teacher does not really teach a lot in class. A lot is dependent on students themselves. And how does the upper sec cope w the increased intensity in the learning then? Maybe someone can enlighten? thanks!

Hi kkc_friend,


What I am stating here is based on my own observation and experience of having 2 girls in CGS.
In Sec 1, the girls are given time to settle in and get used to the life in a secondary school(especially after the stressful PSLE) .
The pace intensifies as the level goes up. Maybe the school does not want the girls to burn out before their ‘O’ levels.(We have sec 1 parents who are complaining that their girls are having too much homework!)
Emphasis is also on project works and preparation for Junior College to survive among the IP students.
I strongly believe that if the student is willing to work hard and put in the effort, the school will work hand in hand to bring out the best in the student.
If a student is not motivated, it is difficult for any teacher in any school to work with the student as the curriculum is heavy with limited time being another factor.
The school is also working towards making the girls self-motivated and independent learners which will be a great asset for the girls to survive out in the world.
