Hi melloh88


Just went to the school this afternoon, overall good impression on the school and the student leader that bring us around the school. She has a good knowledge and explanation of the questions we asked.

Thanks, asm.

I went this morning. Not many people there. Wanted to find out more about the conduct of the students there. Can’t find much review.

Dear all,


Can anyone please share their thoughts on this school? Particularly pertaining to discipline and commitment of the teachers?

Also, we heard that Taekwondo is a compulsory CCA, is this true? And if yes, is it compulsory to take up a 2nd CCCA as well?

We are in a dilemma on whether to send our DS to Edgefield or Nan Chiau High. He has a t-score of 244. His form teacher said it would be a pity if he gave up the opportunity to go to Nan Chiau to challenge himself rather than stay in the comfort zone at Edgefield.

We are worried that he is unable to cope with the pressure of being one of the "poorer" students in Nan Chiau as compared to being a "better" student at Edgefield, thus affecting his overall confidence in himself.

We are also worried that although he scored an A for Mother Tongue (he did not take HMT for psle), he does not really like the subject & would struggle/be left behind, since the school is a SAP school with around 6 out of 8 classes taking HMT.

The thing that attracts us to Nan Chiau is that we feel it may have a better environment to mould him into a person with good character.

Sorry for the long post but we really hope to make an informed and correct decision, so we would appreciate any inputs and thoughts…thank you.

Hi,


we have not submitted our entry as yet, and are still deciding.

We have never visited the school premises before, but just hearsay that it is not bad.

sorry that I can’t share more with you on this school.

For yourself, have you already decided to send your child there?
