Linda Lim:

I have a daughter studying in Si Ling Primary School and she just got her PSLE results. The school performance is generally quite good and better than woodgrove.My daughter is in the best class and the whole class achieve a's/a*'s in all subjects except Science as one of her classmates attained a b. The highest PSLE score is 274 and the principal is from Woodgrove Primary. Not that stressed there and the teachers are very caring. They even had the Adam Khoo Camp for free this year to motivate them. Generally a good school!

Hi Linda,

I am planning for my son P1 in 2 years time. I stay in Woodlands. May I know more about Si Ling Primary School? Seems like the popularity is not high for this school. Do you have any idea why? Or do you find Si Ling is absolutely a good school? Thanks for your advice.

The principal was from Evergreen Primary. The PSLE performance at Si Ling varies quite largely each year, it just happens this year the top student was really exceptional and did very very well. If i'm not wrong, the scores of the top 1 or 2 classes to the scores of the other classes - there is quite a big gap.

The teachers there are very caring and good, the school has some good programs. If your kid is smart, then go what school also no problem cos the teachers allocated to good classes are always v gd. I think one of the reasons its not a very popular school is because of the profile of the students who are there, many come from less-advantaged backgrounds, as well as many from malaysia. (I'm not saying malaysians are lousy, most are smart, just that they make up quite a large proportion)

if you were to look at this site, http://www.channeleducation.com.sg/2010-Primary-Schools-Ranking-in-Singapore.php, Si Ling is one of the lower tier schools, even though the top psle score was top 20.

but it's location is good. Very short distance walk to Civics centre/causeway point.

Hi


Are we talking about Si Ling's principal, Mr Sivam Reddy? If so, he was my DS's ex-principal and he was from Greenwood Primary.

How do you go about doing the PV? You have to apply with the schools you are interested in performing PV. For some schools, the PV application form can be found on their websites. For others, you will have to call them up to enquire.

Hi Wen2gal

Yes, next year P1 will still be afternoon session in Woodlands Pri. By year 2013, only P1 & P2 will be afternoon session. If I remembered correctly, this school will be fully single session by the year 2016. Hope this helps... :lol:
