CHIJ Family of Schools

[Ros]

Hi, anyone have an idea what's CHIJ Kellock like? we are eligible under Stage 2B. one friend said the teachers don't \"drill\" the students enough? and the homework is given is too easy such that cannot cope with PSLE? does anyone sent their girls there have something to say? Any idea what's the school values? thank you.

These 2 schools are too close to call. I would give CHIJ Kellock a very slight advantage based on their historical academic performance.

Not sure if you want a school that \"drills\" students that much, but CHIJ schools are all generally very good for character building and academic performance. Those teachers I talked to in Kellock are nice, friendly and know what they are doing. Go for it.

Thank you ChiefKiasu. No, that’s not what I want. I’m looking for a well rounded education. But she make it sound so relax that I started questioning about my decision. And given that I’m overseas, I relied what people tell me, I guess…

hi


I am old girl of CHIJ kellock back in the 1980s. Generally all CHIJ school forcus more on moral education and character building.

We do have our fair share of homework and extra lessons during the holidays.

During my time, I think our PSLE passes was 100%.

I think the standard for CHIJ is more or less the same.

I think what school you choice depend on where you are/will be staying. This will save travelling time and of course when your girl is in the upper primany there will be enrichment and CCAs, you will need to make sure there are public buses from the school to your house. I dun think you want your girl to travel round singapore to reach home.

anyone has feedback about this school CHIJ-our lady of good counsel. My girl due for PI next yr. Checked website but no info about their school academic.

I went for the open house. It is not formally organise and gave me the impression that they are not proud of their school and teachers are new with no sense and belongings and committed. Feedback from some parents are not positive, kinda not much effort input to improve weaker students performance and form teacher cannot cope. Defintiely not my choice of school for my girl.

[redrose]

AIYO.That’s bad. I heard negative comments too. I better look for other schools.

Hi carol73, i am oso old school girl of chij kellock. I agree totally wif carol on chij. I am staying in telok blangah area i could have registered my girl in radin mas since it will be easier for my boy to get in much later. Best of all its 1 session, at least my girl can spend more time on other activites.
