All About SAP Schools

[Mandie]

Hi, sorry to interrupt. I am not sure if this is the right thread to ask. Trying to go thru the thread, but too much info to read  (but they are good info tho) My girl is going to P1 in 2011, I am considering Red Swastika, just realized it is SAP school after browsing the forum. Could anyone share their view about this school, I don’t worry about higher Chinese (she just need to cope with it, we are Chinese anyway), but more to the academic and teacher quality of the school in all aspect and also to the fact that there are no or minimum number of kids from other races, will that post a potential problem for kids to interact with other races or accept cultural difference in future? Besides Red Swastika, I am also looking at Temasek Primary, not sure which one is a better school to go to. Appreciate if you could share your experiences with these two schools. Thanks

Mandie, I think you can get faster and more detailed answers if you post at the Networking forum: http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewforum.php?f=38 Just click on the link and look for the 2 schools you're interested in. Good luck!

I am new to the educational system here, and would like to get some advice.

I would like to put my girls in a school that gives good exposure in Chinese. Is SAP school the correct choice? but almost all SAP schools are so competetive. Do anyone know if any other school that is also strong in Chinese in Boon Keng / Potong Pasir/Serangoon area?

Thanks very much.

Would like to check if SAP schools accept students with non chinese as MT. Does it mean they should go to outsides places to learn their MT and sitfor exams. please advise parents :?
