Hi qms,


I've been reading this thread for some time and I have a couple of questions to ask you seeing that you have some experience with LV@NUS. My DD has been attending K1 at LV@alpha for the past year...and I am very pleased with the teacher in charge and their curriculum, center, clealiness and all...

However, now in K2, she has a new teacher and she is the VP of this school. I just want to find out what you think about the quality of the teachers there as I think this new teacher doesn't really teach much and they are mostly left to play all day by themselves. I can accept this for tod or N1 level, but K2 needs to have more teachings and work to do to prepare them for P1....don't know , I'm just worried cos everyday i go fetch here, she's always playing and her class room is also not set up, no timetable, no display of their work and all....kinda strange since all the other classrooms in other levels have been set up already ....things are really going downhill....

This teacher comes from LV@NUS and have been with them for over 8 yrs i think...so just want to here your thoughts abt her...maybe if you can PM me, I'll be so grateful... this teacher also had a daugther in K2 last year...so she was actually teaching her own daughter...

This is kinda stressing me to the point of maybe pulling her out..but she likes the school alot so I don't want to make her adjust again esp since it's the last yr before P1....

Anybody else have any comments, do share with me...thanks so much...

Think you r giving urself too much pressure. Putting the teacher factor aside, it is just the 2nd school week of the year and generally, the first week is orientation week where new students join n existing students adapt to their new levels. Maybe u shld monitor for a while longer.

hi keendaddy!


Yeah, that thought came across my mind too but being a parent, we just can’t stop being ‘kan cheong’ about our children’s welfare especially since K2 is such an important year before they go to P1. LV@Alpha’s fees are definitely not cheap so my expectation is that they at least learn something each day and not just play and draw the entire day which they will also do so already during free time. But i guess this is a CC so we can’t realy compare with 3 hr kindy where lessons are more structured…

I will let her be for the time being and see how things go…

Thanks qms! I have read it!


Does anybody have any feedbacks on LV@Alpha's curriculum? How are their toddler class? They recently changed their menu to catered food...any comments on their quality? My DD seems to like them but she still says auntie's one is better....
