Choosing and Evaluating Primary Schools

[frust parent]

:? nope, had not heard of the merger. hmm much much further away ... one more reason to transfer ??

[jtoh]

Why do you like St Margaret’s over Canossa Convent? If the pull factor for St Margaret’s is that significant, then make a move. If not, just stay at Canossa Convent.

For the sake of your grandchildren, choose St Margaret’s now. That small adjustment won’t hurt her. Do it.

karin:

our daughter (SPR) is due to start Primary School in 2013. We want to put here in a local school. We attended a seminar by MOE but still there are a lot of questions. For us her academic results are important but her personality even more. We dont want her to be pressured into something teachers want her to be. So my questions are:...

Hi Karin


Have you considered St Anthony's Canossian Primary? Its a Catholic girls school in the East.

While they do emphasis on academic results, they are also very strong in performing arts, like drama and music. It is not as difficult to get in as St Hilda's and Temasek and they only had balloting for phase 2c supp last year.
