NUS High School of Mathematics and Science (Diploma)

Agree with @LunaJingle

One thing that is very positive in this school is they celebrate how everyone need not be the same and one … so it’s humbling to know there’s always someone smarter than you, it’s also about appreciating the unique strengths. My kid will tell me that there are these friends who don’t get the best grades but ultra insightful with one friend able to write a A essay in 30 mins or another can write poetry. Meanwhile, there are others who they respect for their discipline to ace the Olympiads to international level. And there are the ones who are so into rock climbing, they are experts who gather a group to go during their holidays. The ones who are doing well academically will then turn consultant or peer tutor for groups who want to pull up that subject. Another friend who is China born will conduct Chinese oral practice groups. ALL are student initiated. Such is the culture of the school where they just push for their personal best instead of competing unhealthily with one another.

Great sharing! It’s just so heartening to see such good comments of the school. Given that it has such short history it has achieved so much. Spoke to some kids in the school and found them to be humble and smart. DS is super excited to join the school after the preview last week. Thank you for giving parents a peace of mind what our kids will be going thru when they are there.

Hi


My son will join NUSH S1 in coming year.

May I know whether NUSH follows MOE school holiday calendar? Are the S1 students expcected to go back to school during June holidays be it for CCA or other school program?

Thanks for advice.

Yes, it follows the MOE school holiday. But exam periods are much earlier or later than mainstream schools. For june/dec holidays, I find the elective or cca activities tend to be organised nearer to start of the holidays. The school tends to be quite last minute with these as it is subject to only qualified students or interest. There’s no harm sending a mail to the level head to ask about the tentative schedules. Some of the students will already be starting projects so you have to check in with them so your holiday plans don’t disrupt their project team plans.
