Choosing and Evaluating Primary Schools

i would recommend to go for Nan Hua.

Should i try for nan hua and hope that this year Qifa will still have space for Phase 2C Supp if DS not balloted for Phase 2C ? or should I simply just go for Qifa as it is literally at my door step only and i think sure can get in if within 1KM?

Looks like I am the odd one here. :oops: I would go for Qifa.

Was there a year when Qifa produced a top PSLE student ? I remember she is a China national and 13 years old.

well, my nephew was in Qifa (P6 last year) and my brother in law decided to sent his younger son to another school…

Thanks all parents for your suggestions and opinions. : )


We will monitor the situation and station at both qifa and Nan Hua. My feel at the moment is We may still give Nan Hua a try. Maybe my son will be lucky I may look for alternative back up as i am also within 2km of Fu Hua ( Jurong East School ) and Pei Tong ( Clementi ) These 2 schools historically still have plenty of spaces in phase 2C supp. Any parents have feedback on these 2 schools ?

Many Thanks in advance.

Hi All!!


I'm a mother to a wonderful \"pig\" year (2007) girl and would like to network and get to know more parents out there!

Though I know that it would be another few years before she attends pri school, I am already feeling stressed out over which Pri School to send her to. So hope you guys can give me some advice!

I am staying in Kovan currently and have interest to send her to Rosyth School (I'm within 2km). Though I know its virtually impossible to enrol her unless I move within 1Km and PV / grassroot or beg (kidding)

I'm from Kong Hwa School previously so alot of my friends have advise me to just go for Kong Hwa and not waste time to PV for Rosyth ...

Can anyone share some thoughts on this? Thanks! :?

hi sorry i can’t put it in black and white why my brother did not allow my younger nephew to qifa. The boy went to pei tong instead.

Hi,


Happy New Year 2011. My baby gal is about 18 months now and I am keen to know about the good schools in Singapore. Though one may feel it is too early, I am seeking this information now as we are planning to buy our first home in Singapore. We would like to consider the proximity of our new house to good schools as a key deciding factor.

Any inputs will be highly appreciated. You can email me your suggestions to [email protected].

Regards.
