      Hi,


      Which school has better management and maybe more dedicated teachers? I know every school will have a number of dedicated teachers but I would like to know if some schools have better management and thus more motivated teachers…my boy’s choice of schools is Dunman, Hwa Chong and Anderson (if he cannot get into the other 2), anyone has any input regarding the teachers in these schools?

        My fren who recently went to HCI says he got a lot of homework. I often see him slogging into the wee hours of the night doing homework while FACEBOOKING. 😉

            My friend went there! He got a MacBook Air for all his lessons at MSHS.

            On this note, many kids here would want to go. -WAHAHAHAHAHA-

            And parents probably won't allow them to spend $2000 to buy a MacBook Air 😉

                Same as in DHS.......... 😉 :evil:
                It is not uncommon to see pupils still online discussing school work during the wee hrs
                as seen in dhs mail chat.
                Regarding teachers, yr 1 and yr2 teachers are super nice,
                Friendly, Approachable, Negotiable and Patience.......
                But for yr3, cant say all these for yr 3 teachers.......
                And they are rather fierce....... :roll: 😓 (observations gathered from my gal )

                    Thanks for the information. So the schools generally have a lot of homework. I guess that is to be expected. What school are you in Ichigokun?

                      I hve 2 kids, the elder took his PSLE in yr 2005 and will be enlisted coming May. The younger girl took her PSLE in yr 2006 and is now in j2.


                      If i will to do it all over again, apart from academics, ccas and travelling distance are my main consideration and i heck care about a school’s culture and IP status or not doesn’t bother me at all.

                      From a parent whose kids qualifed for IP schools but only the younger one had chosen this route.
