Pro-Teach Student Care

[TT tan]

sembgal:

Thanks for your frank feedback. Having the child in a student care service may not benefit the parents if the student care centre in primary schools close on days when schools close such as PSLE marking day. This is enough to put me off.

I had a frustrating experience with Pro-Tech After School Care in Horizon Primary School. From my last encounter with the centre principal, i figured that the demand for their centre is so good that they can make thoughtless decision. Take it or leave it. Inflexible, high-handed and lack of planning. If you are in their waiting list, you can wait forever unless someone drops out. No point appealing no matter how desperate you are. You can also forget about calling their HQ as they will just refer your feedback back to the respective centres.


Since they decided to accept only one of out my TWO children studying in the school, i've decided to withdraw my application for the one accepted by the centre because it makes no sense for me.

For those parents who consider school based care centres, I noticed that Pro-Tech Centre closes when the school close (eg. PSLE marking day, special school events etc). I thought that's when we need the centre for - to take care of our children when there's no school during school term.

Furthermore, Students are to wait in school canteen after say 5pm and outside the school after 6.30pm with one centre staff. So for parents who knock off at 6pm and takes more than half hour travel time, do take that into consideration.

I went to pro teach two branches to observe as I was thinkin of placing my DS there, I noticed:

1. Children were not really doing their work. Many were playing with their pencil boxes, drawing rubbish on papers, flipping pencils, etc. girls were chatting instead of doing their work
2. Teachers were oblivious to children behavior. THEy were just answering one or two kids queuing up to ask questions.

3. Some boys were dashing in and out of classrooms. They were going toilets frequently and laughing and joking outside class. Again teachers didn't bother.

4. When I ask the teachers. One school said oh... So happen they are changing periods. I visited the centre three times and so coincidental? Then I ask another school teacher, she said, we are here to help in school work, we are not childcare teachers.... I was like.... Huh... BUT they are not even doing their work....

I urge parents if you feel lack of options plus write to ministry. I wrote to moe but nothing been done. Hopefully as more parents feedback they will build more and better after schools are for full time working parents.

Any feedback on pro teach near Rosyth school?

Can anyone comments on the Pro-teach at Kang Ching Road? I hear the teachers motivate the students in their studies. I am thinking to put my P1 girl at Pro-teach (which is near to our house) in case she didn’t get into the Knowledge Park Student Care at RGPS. Please kindly reply my message.

Very rude principal at Blk 294 Pro-teach cck. I was confused with which student care center that called me. I got mix up with the other student care principal, I apologise cause I was confused. Before I can speak if I was interested in sending my kids to Pro-teach student care she just switch off my call.

Of course as parent we need to be careful of the student care center we chose for our children. We need to visit several student care before we make any decision.
But can not just off the phone like that, I may not choose to send my kids there now Who knows I may change my mind later. How can she just off the call like that. So unprofessional, lucky I didn’t chose this student care center.
