St Gabriel's Primary

Hi BlackVelvet


My dh and I are considering placing my ds in St Gabriels’ in 2013. Our other choice is St Joseph’s. We are staying in Bishan.

Did your son benefit from all the remedials in preparation for P6 last year? It is obvious that the school’s emphasis is on improving the quality of teaching and learning. It is also praiseworthy that the teachers would spend that many additional hours teaching after curriculum hours.

Your comments, please.

Views on boys’ behaviour so far:

- from the couple of times I have been there, within sch grounds I find the boys well behaved and respectful of teachers etc. Am not sure about outside school though.
- so far, my son is enjoying school.

Hi,


Jus touching base. My boy’s in P1 at St Gab’s this yr and apart frm some grouses with the transport services, we are quite pleased with how he’s been settling in so far…the teachers seem to be pretty caring and patient…

Hi Electron

Yes, my son benefitted from the extra classes, and he had made improvements in his subjects.

It was not only after curriculum hours that the teachers spent. The Mother Tongue and English teachers also came in earlier in the mornings to give the boys extra practice in Oral.

Thanks Blackvelvet!

Kudos to St Gabriel's teachers! So all those reports in the newspapers about the teachers not using curriculum time effectively and so resort to mindless extra classes is just one side of the story? Tsk, tsk.

In my opinion, happy teachers, make happy students. Based on your sharing, it looks like the school is heading in the right direction.

Hi


have you decided to put your boy in St Gab? Am considering for the P1 registration 2012. As I am not within 1-2km, might have to do PV to increase the chances?

Any other good feedback about the school? Do they perform well academically?
