Hi,


After reading all u parents posts, I want to mention the followings:

1. Mindless drilling may still be useful in the stage of Primary School. However, once your kids go to those top Sec Sch, I don't think it still can work. The top Sec Sch requires more sensible and wide thinking. Most of the questions and project require creative ideas. No more models in Maths. No more oral notes given. They require your own expression and personal thinking. How those mindless drilled students can face those changes?

2. As I know, most of the P6 Rulang students still got personal tution after 4 pm. Some of them cried after they lose their voice. But the teachers still asked them to continue to recite the oral notes on Wednesday (the day before the PSLE Oral Exam). I really feel sorry for the students. The parents really save money? I really want to know how many students will get in top rank in PSLE this year.

Hope the school be kind to the students, learning is life long. The teacher shd tell the students the concept of each new topic clearly. Then, teach them how to apply in daily life through the questions and paper. Then, learning is fun and more practical. thnks.

I do not have kids in this school. My friend likes the school because of the drilling. Reasons are simple: to get at least 26+ for PSLE and 'help' to get in top sec school thru' DSA.
I do not have kids in this sch also. Sorry to kapoh here...At least Rulang's drilling see results! Many schools near Rulang also \"drill\". Sad to say not many can get 26+...Rulang parents, be grateful for what you are and have...

Alamak… Is d Sch really that stressful in upper pri? Afterall, it’s still a heartland Sch. We had a chance to enroll ds in ACS but chose Rulang cos we thot it may be less stressful cos of its heartland status.

ACS is definitely less stressful than Rulang

Hmm...the consolation is my banana son is at least speaking a bit of Mandarin now due to peer pressure..

agreed! ACS is definitely less stressful than Rulang. Rulang is 'well-known' as a pressure cooker.
