can anyone advice me… hows life in CPS?

attitude of the teachers , staffs, environment? i end up in phase 2cs liao… so dissapointed… i living just walking distance fr Boon LAy Garden pri sch. CPS will be in morning session and BlGPS is afternoon for P1 . CPS is 3 bus stops away.

which one should i choose? my importance is the school environment. can anyone from CPS share wat it the academic standard like?

my son's only in P3 but so far i like what I see.

compared to schools like Rulang, i think the test papers are not as difficult, but then I'm fine with that.
compared with any other typical neighbourhood school, i think it is good enough.

:snuggles: :hugs: Take heart, maykenth - don't be disappointed; looks forward to your registration for P2CS tomorrow and/or the day after

I was balloted out in year 2008 for my DD1 P1 registration then. Yes, disappointed so we went on to register DD1 with CPS under P2CS

I can only comment that my P4 DD1 and P1 DD2 are enjoying school very much - so much so that they \"grumble\" - why this week only study 3 days? (16th & 17th being PSLE Oral exam) so it is a non-schooling day

My P4 DD1 is blessed to have very caring and dedicated teachers throughout this 4 years; thankful for that. She approaches her teachers if she has any doubts and now as she is in the upper primary, she spends more time in school for supplementary lessons, CCAs, NDP rehearsals etc...

My P1 DD2 is the happy-go-lucky type :imcool: maybe can call her the \"simply bo-chap\" type. But I am glad that she loves school - enjoys the activities, the PAL programme etc.. :please:

Maybe, you can read up more at the school webpage:-

Alternatively, you can visit both the BLGPS and CPS tomorrow and then have a feel how the school function system is

Hi all,


My son got balloted out of Frontier…now considering CPS and Pioneer.
Historically, Pioneer needs balloting even for phase 2CS while CPS don’t (well not too sure about last year).

We are staying within 1km of Pioneer and between 1km to 2km to CPS. Not too sure our chances if we opt for CPS…dun want to go through balloting…

Any comments???

Thx
Leon

Went for the student care registration this morning. 40 places for P1 next year. Priority for those in subsidy, then other SC. Mr Ee, the supervisor said in the past, only 10-15 kids fr subsidy. But this year the income ceiling for subsidy has increased so more pple will qualify. Crossing my fingers that DD will get in, if not I’ll have to put her on sch bus to go to an external student care, which will be more tiring for her.

We also asked the sch general office abt the official acceptance letter. The admin person said all have been mailed out, but dunno why we havent received. Anyway, they checked our records are there, so they told us to just go for the orientation which is 17 Nov at 9am

Hi,
Maybe you can monitor the situation tml and go for the registration on Wednesday?

Looking at the vacancies left for P2CS, Pioneer has 71 and CPS has 52 so difficult to make decision

Tarztarz, Dora1 & Hazelmama, Welcome to CPS family!


Dora1, those with siblings currently in the student care will have priority too, guess before those in subsidy. Two weeks ago, my girl received the form for siblings to register by 2 August. The procedures work like PS registration different phases. Interesting.
