Thank you Tulip, for taking the time and providing me with the info I need. Yes, so the homework could be not being able to complete in class. I’m glad! I’m hoping the KCPPS is like that as I do not wish my boy to be "overloaded" with homework at the start of P!. If homework is given on Fridays, its alright.


Wow, teacher’s name card? I have not heard of this before. Most of the time like you mention, its the school phone number. Never the teacher. Its good. not that I will bother the form teacher but in case there are urgent matters, its faster rather then going through a whole "line" of office people.

Hmm…this new P must be not too bad. At least the direction that he gives to his teachers is to provide constant feedback and parents are able to get in touch with their kids form teachers easily.


After your feedback, I feel more reassured putting my boy there. The only thing I wish is the school function as a single session but its impossible as based on today’s standard its quite small.

Also can I check with you, parents who are picking up their kids, they will park at the nearby hdb carpark, is there a side gate? Will the kids be at the gate by about 6.45pm after flag lowering?

No problem..

Yes, I'm hoping for single session too, but it won't happen anytime soon for KCPPS. Like you mentioned, the school compound is very small, I don't see how it could achieve that with the current facilities and rooms they now have.

We were advised to park at the hdb carpark across the school. You may have noticed the sheltered waiting area just by the main gate. That's where most of us will pick up our kids. Yes, There is a side gate, just by the Eco garden, which has a covered walkway to the nearest flat (which is really near; from the gate to the bottom of flat is about 15m or so). By 6:45p.m. most of the kids should be by the gate already. Usually, when it rains, we are allowed to drive in and park at the school car park.

I guess it depends on where you stay. It'll be a good school to put your kids in, if you are staying not too far away

Ultimately, it really depends on your school selection criteria as I believe you'll put a different weightage on each criterion.

All the best...I think you still have a few more years to decide, right?

So far, I have not heard of any impending move. However, most schools should be slowly making the transition from double sessions to single session now and with the current facilities at KCPPS, they will not be ready for the change, thus it is a possibility that they may have to move to a temporary location whilst the school undergo upgrading or another location permanently altogether. Ha...maybe they will takeover GuangYang's premise as the school is seeing a very low take up rate; so far, only 38 registrants up till Phase 2C supplementary.
