[Tampines] Primary Schools

[Cypress_tree]

Dear All,


I am a mother who failed to register for my son in 2C yesterday. I cannot describe how sad I am, but now the most important thing is to finalize a school in 2CS. I would like to seek your advice among the 2CS school in Tampines, which one is better? Junyuan or East Spring? I saw Junyuan has 30 more place than last year. Does more seats mean better school? And East Spring left least place in the current list, does that mean it’s more popular? We are citizen. Thank you very much

I have visited Jun Yuan and had a good overall impression on the school. The principal is very enthusiastic.

Oh no! What happened to my Gongshang Primary School? During my days (1990s)..Gongshang Primary was beyond any doubt one of the BEST and most Popular Primary Schools in Tampines (if not the whole east zone)!

I found the below from Junyuan’s website, the Maths and Science results are below National Avg. Do you know is this similar for 2cs schools and is East Spring about the same? (Couldn’t find any details for East Spring on their website). Thank you

I think not all schools published the results on the website.. maybe u can give East Spring a call before you decide.. or u wanna consider yumin primary? I think it's not a bad school.. last yr the top student was scoring like 265 for PSLE.. Juz 1 pt behind the top student in Gongshang if I'm not wrong.. it's juz that it might be a bit too far away for u..

yes, I heard from my mil too that they will be changing the principal. The current principal will be going overseas to further her studies. But how true I am not sure. She heard the news from the security guards in yumin when she went to pick my nephew up from there.

I am new in this forum. would like to seek all mummies comments.. my girl going register on next yr and born on 2009. I am stay in Tampines and which the nearest school is St hilda and other school which more than 2 km.. i not sure shld i try my luck to get in SHPS or try other school? i am worried if cannot get in SHPS then will go some other phase 2c supp school.

Hi Alice,

Same shoes. I am staying like right across Poi Ching...But definitely going to be a balloting, and the best part is PCS is the only school within 1km for us..and the SHPS is within 2km, so don't even need to try. And it seriously doesn't help when there are quite a few BTOs n condos TOP-ing soon.. I guess I am here to research on phase 2C strategy as a fail safe.. :?
