Rulang Primary

[sunsweet]

Ghees,


I appreciate the part whereby students are getting good coaching from the school and kids almost require no extra tuition apart of handling the schoolwork.

However giving excessive homework is killing the interest of learning in the child.

There should be a balance.

I don’t want my kids to hate their Primary school life keke.

I agree with PRmummy. It’s impt dat kids still be kids in d midst of preparing for exams n learning. I cannot imagine a Sch tr will be so inhumane as to give hmwk that’s impossible to complete. Cld it due to mismanagement of time dat a kid has to do hmwk till past midnite?


As for extra lessons at 6.30am or till 4pm, I feel as parents we can choose not to attend. Am sure trs will not force. Many times it’s d parents who r afraid of losing out n go wif d flow. I am very sure I will not let my boy go for d 6.30am class even if it means he may lose out to his peers. parents do hv d power to decide wat kind of childhood u want for ur kid n partner wif d Sch to ensure dat our kids experience d best Sch life possible.

The 630am - 4pm for P6 is a daily affair for the whole year?

Wonder how those who stay far away get there on time?

Hi,

I'm thinking if I would send my child to Rulang cos I'm staying near the school. But if I were to send my child there I would have to volunteer myself in the PV to advance her chances during the registration, cos neither my hub or myself is a student there.

OIC...

May be you can continue to collect as much info as possible before you decide and compare your options. Before you make up your mind, you might want to apply for the PV at Rulang first so as not to miss the deadline.. but I suppose your child is not due for registration next year... so you still have ample research time..
