amylqf:

Since quite number of anxious parents were asking about feedback of Poi Ching Primary school, I am thinking to post a Q&A here, so that hopefully it will help you in making decision of chosing right school for your child.

Many thanks to amylqf and Chief

Can't thank you enough for this, amylqf. Truly helpful. :goodpost:


So far, how do you find their English standard in SAP school? is the English standard \"lowered\" so as to accommodate higher Chinese?

Many thanks.

If i want to apply for PV in St Hilda but im not a christian…

Will they reject my application?
If i write in the PV application that im residing in bukit panjang but shifting to tampines soon, will they considered that im staying within 1km of the sch?

Hey sunset_dae... look up at the poll there and you can see what other people think are the good schools. Poi Ching comes to mind

It doesn't matter whether you are a christian or not, everyone could apply for PV, however it would be wise to do PV (if selected) if you are residing <1 KM of St Hilda's.
Have come across too many parents who did PV and were>2Km from the Sch, and did not even have a chance of balloting for 2B.
