Channel Education's Ranking of Primary School
-
It infuriates me that a private entity can get away with such ranking using official looking jargon. No disclaimers. It is nothing but the private opinion of a company/ group of people .
They use three criterias and that constitutes "holistic" ??
MOE should have strict rules that such ranking should not be put up and if it is there should be a clear disclaimer at the top in a specific font size. -
o, btw, this is not a case of sour grapes
My kids schoool is in the Tier 1 , as per their ranking.
As if the mad rush for primere schools is not bad enough as it is, they seem to be instigating it further. -
Very confused...
so should I \"aim\" according to the above link or this?

ignore this Channel Education stuff.
to me, this Tier stuff from 1 to 6 not important.
so what if they say Nan Hua is Tier 2 ?
to me, Nan Hua is a very good school.
whether Nan Hua comes under Tier 1 or 2 - if i stay in Clementi, i’ll still choose this school.
you’ve more important things in life to be concerned about.
ignore this. -

Whichever school the child is in, the most important thing is that he/she is able to realise his/her full potential. No point going to a top school and feel stressed and be at the bottom of the cohort. The ideal is the child is in the middle - got room to improve and not demoralised. Of course parents feel proud that their children are in top school, but results how? :siam:

Nan Hua is a GEP centre. How come it’s classified under Tier 2, not 1 ?
