Mulberry Learning Centre
-
Hi, my girl who is now 1 is attending the infant care at Raffles… Initially the centre looks really good, the principle is very nice, teachers are very friendly and helpful… They also have a time table paste outside showing us the activities they planned for the infant thing like showing english and chinese flash card…
Things were good during the first few months, but later we come to find out that it wasn’t as good as we thought, the teachers start to heck care the kids, when we fetch my girl from class, she has porridge stains (a lot of stains and very obvious ones) on her tee and face… she was having flu and there are dried mucus around her nose and mouth areas… I don’t care what happened in the centre since we can’t really see what they are doing in the day, but at least when we pick her up, we hope to see a clean baby…
and when the principle say us, she didn’t really say hi to us, not as friendly as she used to be when we newly joined, she only attend to those new babies… and the activities we see in the file are always things like gross motoring (it’s an area where they are some blocks of cushion, swings, slides, playground like things around) for the kids to play, or sing along session (80% of the week is this activity), it doesnt look as good as what they planned for the kids… Many of the teachers are from china or malaysia, 90% of them are chinese speaking, not much english conversation, so it didnt help to expose my gal to english which we tot it would if we send her to infant care. i always see those chinese teachers speaking mandarin to malay and indian kids…
The fee is very high compare to other infant care centres, we don’t feel worth it to pay this fee for what they are providing. We intend to change her to other centres once there’s vacancy. -

Wow! just got to know that Mulberry has its 5th CC in such a short perid! Really fast expanded and it has been aiming to high-end customer. From Jurong east --->Chua Chu Kang---> IBP Acer --->Tanjiong Pagar--->Raffles place.Hi, my girl who is now 1 is attending the infant care at Raffles..

When I first registered my girl in PN JE in 2009, it was the only branch it had and now developed 4 new branches in less than 4 years! If the fees not steep how do they manage to expand so fast? They are more on marketing their brand and making money from young parenets and kids.
I started to look for new school for my girl in end 2010 when the 2nd brach (CCK) was open and I found the teacher's qualification not upto standard and school management not improved after my many complaints. With new branches one by one, experienced teachers were transfered out and also teachers' workload was high and were not able to take good care of kids and fulfill the project (the written project is good, though). After too much disappoinment, Finally I transfered out my kids in 2012...and my girl is much happier in new school then in Mulberry.
Of course I admit that teachers there are kind and helpful(we had been in good communication and had plenty of discussion and we still meet sometimes) but they are just too busy to take care so many children while delivering good lessons to kids. -
Hi everyone,
I have 2 sets of girl’s uniform (AM + PM) to let go. Size M. Never wore before, although 1 set has been washed. Child has switched school shortly after enrollment.
Please PM me if interested! Thanks! -
Hi Mommies and Daddies,
Could advice how much roughly for N2 (AM)?
is the CCK branch good? I am worried because this is the first time for my daughter to enter school, previously only went to several play & learn class @ Gymboree.
she’s very active and since this is her first time to go schooling, she lacks social skills and easily provoke by other children, currently she’s on trial @ MMI beauty world, a bit far & time consuming on the journey and we would like to change to nearer to our home, yew tee area.
Thank you for the help Mommies & Daddies!!! -
Both my DS are in Acer branch for the last 2+yrs. My youngest started from infant. So far, my kids are very happy here and they enjoy and look forward to going to school everyday. My eldest was transferred out from the previous school and he is much happier here.

My kid is in mulberry JE since May last year. Their turnover really very high. Change 6 teachers so far. They used to be very good but apparently the good partner that setup the mulberry has left due to differences in mgmt style and she brought ex principal from JE and Tanjung Pagar to the new centre called The Learning Campus at Yung Ho (Taman Jurong area). Alot if parents have also jumped over to the new school. I was on very good terms with 2 of the ex teachers and they told me this. Seems like they pay peanuts and many teachers are only certificate in EC instead of diploma. I’m contemplating to change school if things dont improve.

considering MLP@JE too.
has things improved? esp the teacher turnover problem? -
Starting from yr 2013, the standards for JE side has dropped drastically! Not to mention the high rate of teachers turnover but also the person in charge( school principal)
The internal management is worse! I encounter a case when my kid signed uop for the extra curriculum but he did not get to attend till i realize it on my own. Not only that, there are more frustrating cases i encountered all due to THEIR INTERNAL ISSUES!
Their so called principal teacher don’t seems to be sincere in solving all these issues even with several feedbacks. Or to say, never reply to my email of complaint.
I believe that a gd school makes up of gd responsible teacher and a gd management leader. In this yr…i would say that for the fees that i pay, there will be better school than JE.
How would u expect something gd when the managment is so poor.
My personal opinion!
PS: before that, everything is gd…always 2 ways of communication etc.
