Wld appreciate any feedback on this school as it will be one of my ds' choices:


- How's their historical o level results?
- teachers - general caring & approachable?
-discipline - are they strict & students well behaved?
- CCA - which ones are their niche?
- strengths or weaknesses of school?
TIA!

KCPSS used to be up there amongst the better schools. Their golden period was the late 90s- early 2000s. But for the past few years this school performances has been going downhill. Not many CCAs choices there compared to other secondary schools and mostly biased towards music / performing arts. The problem I think is because they have a high number of young and raw inexperienced teachers posted to them.

I happened to attend their meet-the-parents session today as my niece was posted to this school. It came as a shock to see and hear the senior teachers speaking. Out of the 4 speakers who took to the stage and microphone.... 3 of them umm and ahh their speeches that it was a torture hearing them speak. I am really concerned for the students if these were the teachers' standards. I hope that tonight was a one-off bad day of nervousness.... though they shouldn't be as educators.

Anyone dc transferred out or appealed in this school?

I don't think they will be taking in anymore appeal students as the Principal has expanded the intake to 8 Express classes from the 5 that MOE posted to her school. She wants to start classes early so she took in excess pupils so that there will not be disruption from vacancies available when some students get their transfers out as current vacancies are at (- negative) status.

I saw a number of potential Ah Bengs / Ah Lians in them. If not monitored carefully, I foresee these boys/girls turning into troublemakers when they reach Upper Secondary.

Hi ServantofGod


So far any feedback about the school from your niece?
Is she happy with the school/teachers etc?
Like what sparks has previously asked:

- How’s their historical o level results?
- teachers - general caring & approachable?
-discipline - are they strict & students well behaved?
- CCA - which ones are their niche?
- strengths or weaknesses of school?

How is it compared to Pierce Sec, St Gabriel’s, Beatty etc?

I don't think I can help you in this instance as my niece is no longer attending this school. She succeeded in her appeal to Dunman High and is very happy there.

Hi all


Any parents can advise when is the CA starting?
Can we find the exams schedule in the school website?
I can’t login the parents portal cos apparently there’s some issues with DS account.

Thanks!
