<![CDATA[Daddy devilsadvocate : Newbie]]>Hi Everyone,


Warm wishes.

Am a newbie to KSP.

Would be moving to Singapore soon.

Got three kids on tow and a little nervous about both parenting and schooling in Singapore.

Was brought up by very liberal parents myself. Encouraged to be independent from a very young age. Something not really common being a child of the seventies. Anwyays my two siblings and me have done our parents proud.

So far i have allowed my kids to ‘grow’. And I find that they seem to be more curious and inquisitive that way.

I have been browsing the KSP website and my knees are starting to wobble. I mean parents seem to measure the quality of the school by how much homework is given to them? Hope I am doing the right thing.

Cheers,
Devils Advocate

from home or not choice will have low enrolment .

yearly if there are more school then enrolment due to
watever reason , some school may actually have less
student, I am not sure maybe over time there might be
merger for school with low student numbers to maximise
school resources ??

I just browsed through the MOE website and note that there are schools with very low registration even at Phase 2 CS stage.

For example Da Qiao Primary in AMK - has 180 vacancies but todate only 68 students have registered. Meaning there would be close to 120 vacancies.

Would these be filled up by foreigners? or wll the school only have 68 students?

and why is the enrollment so low? Not that many kids to go to school?

Just curious.

Cheers,
