Thanks TWU. Useful info. Yes I recall they lumped JC/MI together as one category when they reported 91+% of students qualify.

Hi hi,


Read here that the school is very strict. Possible to advise how strict is the school or what are their rules considered strict.

Anyone know do they support N(A) students?

How is the principal designated? Mdm Betty Chang? Did she speak in the open house?

Thank you for all help.

How strict is subjective. Some may find the school strict while others are ok with it. At secondary level, with the exception of International program schools, all schools are strict. Just look at the ACS mobile phone case. But too strict impede creativity and the will to speak up.


DD told me during the orientation, Sec 1 students are required to march. They can only eat when they are told to eat. Just like Basic Military Training.

hi limws1,


Thanks for your feedback>

How is the academic support? Are teachers willing to give extra coaching? Patience? Supportive type or Demanding type?

[limws1]

My personal experience with my DD teachers and academic VP give me a sense that they are supportive. The students must also take the initiative to approach the teachers for extra coaching if needed. Having said that, I have also seen a teacher getting angry with a parent and child during meet-the-teacher session.

my child is from Peirce and after the students from Bishan park joined Peirce this year, my child feedback to me that the Peirce’s discipline is not as strict now, especially to the students from Bishan park. We were pleased with Peirce’s discipline achievement when the previous principal was still around. However, there is a change of principal and discipline master this year, really hope Peirce can maintain the discipline standard.
