          Headachemum, why worry for your grandkids? U should leave those worries to ur kids mah, LOL. They should find a spouse who studied in a good boys/mixed school if that is their concern, and not to rely on their parents to worry about their future generations 😉

            If a DD goes to RGPS, ask her to get a husband from ACS or C. High.

            If a DS gets into ACS or C. High, then ask him to get a wife from RGPS.

            There are reports that said girls and boys learn differently. From the recent O level results, we can also see that most top students are from single sex schools - St Nich or C High.

              When I was in sec sch, I noticed that usually good girls’ school tend to be located near good boys’ school leh. Why? Is it still the case now?


              Anyway, I went to all girls’ kindergarten and from that age, I realised that when you have so many girls together, they tend to become very b*tchy, even more so than girls from mixed schools. Luckily, I mix well with others so I wasn’t their target but my poor cousin was. My pri sch and sec sch all mixed schs.

              My DD is at mixed pri sch but that was more a choice of location rather than gender cos there seem to be only mixed pri schs near my home.

              My DH was from mixed pri sch and then boys’ sec sch. Maybe I go ask him his opinion.

                        Would you send you girl to Girls' School or Mixed School?
