Hi, can I check how fast can a child be promoted from foundation to the next level?

I am starting to feel that they will purposely extend the foundation period to generate more $$.
Do they promote by age or by capability?

Foundation/Launchpad are for younger children and they are promoted as and when the teacher finds the child is able to put what they have learnt to practice. The programme is by literacy level and not by age.
If you need explanations, you can always check with the teacher. Teacher is only in charge of the programmes and not the $$ aspect. And they have head office to do checks as well.

Also, younger children have short attention spans which is why the centre always have small activities (learn through play) to keep the child occupied... it is not that the teacher is not \"teaching\" ...

Any feedback for the Ang Mo Kio branch?

I am thinking of pulling out my K2 girl from ICR cos I find that the spelling is very demoralising for her. Just imagine that the max marks for a spelling is 3/10. Any recommendations for LCentral Jurong East teachers?

Huh? My kid is w ICR, just promoted, starting the level (not sure which level, the level before entering P1) in Apr 12. You mean the spelling is difficult? What are some of the words in there?

Hi Dino mummy,


She’s in book 3 already and they have words like ‘gnome’, ‘though’. Decided to stick to ICR as one of my girlfriends told me that her P2 girl is having good results as a result of foundation in ICR. Anyway the teacher said that she is not concerned with the spelling.

Feedback on kovan branch needed. Considering to enroll my 6 yr old to PFS @ kovan and 4yo to foundation level. Appreciate your recommendation of good teachers.


Thank you.

I have enrolled my daughter to the Kovan branch at the foundation level. She has just been promoted to Launch Pad after one semester. The teachers are very friendly and the staff are helpful and attentive as well. The only setback is the limited parking lot during the Saturday peak hour. Can anyone here pm me for the $30 referral fee? I have yet to claim it, thanks.... :celebrate:

I think Jurong East LCentral is a good branch, already establish. Just check the class size before signing up.
