Raffles Girls' Primary

[moonee]

Poonie:

Abit confused! Your child was transfered to RGPS at P4 so the remedial that took place at P1 was back at Hengry Park? What was her CL result then that warrant remedial?

HI POONIE, Sorry I confused you. I was abit sleepy and wanted to complete the post fast. I was quoting my grls past two yrs experience.. Shes been in raffles since day one. Now p3.
Back in P1 she was given a few C/L weekly ting xie and one test. She could never get full marks for tingxie no matter how hard she tried. ....was always one or two wrong, the marking was kind of strict though. My grl was given a test and she obtained 14/16 marks. Thereafter ,the teacher called me n recommended remedial classes twice a week.

Someone posted in another thread that there was an article in ST's forum page on Sat that a P3 teacher in RGPS punished the girls by pulling their hair, tweaking their ears, and hitting their heads with their Math books? Did anyone read that article? Is it common in the school? OMG!! [/quote]My colleague showed me the aritcle today.

I wonder why the father of the child did not write it himself. Coward!! worried that his name would be known to associates

We should not jump into any conclusion based on the article alone. Every family has its own problem. I think MOE should take action against this teacher.

Sorry I beg to differ as that would be undermining the Principal's action as it was stated in the article the teacher was warned and the Principal would monitor the situation. Even reading the article as an outsider of the matter, I feel that the family could have discussed a course of follow-up actions instead of skipping to a public stunt. Just my 2 cts.

Sometimes the school or principal will not take thing seriously until the matter is made known to public.

Not sure if making it public was the FIRST course of action. I'd have thought that there should be some form of partnership between parents and the school. :shock: ..else why send the kids to school.

Though I must add that I'm surprised that there's no circular to existing parents and/or students on this.

Hi Andaiz,


Paiseh! Paiseh! Got the got the name wrong. Should be STORK not swan.

Basically, most people can be broadly categorized into 3 categories. …Stork, Bull and Tea Strainer.

Stork – one who is able is able to sieve out the bad stuff and take in only the good stuff (fish)

Bull – one who takes in everything, swallow the good stuff and spits out the unwanted stuff.

Tea strainer – retains the unwanted tea leaves and let the good tea flow out.

:lol: :lol: wat a way to put it...
