Does your kids have Maths homework everyday? My dd has almost everyday. And they are so difficult ESP. Worksheets.

Our DDs are in the same class. Is your DD coping well? My DD is struggling a little with Math. I'm worried that she will dislike Math. :nailbite:

Hi gaffy,

My dd is coping ok. She also can’t do challenging Maths. I personally think the Maths is difficult too. I just hope my dd will improve her attention span in class…the form teacher is gd so I trust my dd will excel under her guidance…

Just to share... I have 2 cousins who had graduated from this Sch a couple of years back. The elder one scored above 270 and went to IP @ RGS, now with NUS doing double major in Chemistry Engineering & Business and is still on Dean's List. Younger one whom my uncle always classified as the \"not smart one\" also managed to get 259 and went to St Nicks, RJC and now on scholarship with SMU.

Both of them only had Maths tuition at some tuition centre. Nothing else. Low maintenance cost! According to my auntie, the school has very good and caring teachers. The school assessment papers are good enough to prepare them for PSLE. Teachers never failed to give extra coaching to weaker students. I am totally impressed with this outstanding neighborhood sch.
To parents here, I believe all your children are really in good hands.

Wow edener!

You have really shared gd insights to us. We are motivated.
I am contented if she can get to a gd secondary next time. Self study and independent.

Any parents from 3 Gracious? My transferred son did not adapt very well, always say wanna go back to old school… He has culture shock and affects his study attitude… sigh

Hip mama,

What do you mean by culture shock? It’s just march. Perhaps he need time to adapt.

Just curious why would you want to switch from Woodlands Pri to CFS? Woodlands Pri is a rather good school in Woodlands and your son will be in the top class, also what about the changes impact on the child? Have you considered this?


After considering CFS recent PSLE results, I don't think CFS is that great a school after all? My neighbourhood school downstairs, which doesnt need to ballot, has a higher top PSLE score than CFS!

Because I want him to change friends. Rather sad to see the environment in Woodlands Pri is not as good, in terms of peers and friends. CFS is more strict in terms of disciplines.

Regarding the class, CFS streaming is every year, so he can have a chance to go to good class next year..

Actually Woodlands Pri is not too bad. CFS has not been maintaining its high standard it used to be. But in terms of the notes to prepare for PSLE, I agree with mommies they are comprehensive and sufficient for PSLE examination. The top 3 classes are considered HA classes (High ability). Hence your DS with his top result in Woodlands Pri, needs to maintain to be able to top classes.

In terms of friends, maybe cohort wise, you maybe correct that friends will be different since CFS is considered generally more \"kwai\".

Through my 3 years experience, I totally agree that CFS students are more \"kwai\" . Find the students very helpful and studiuos.

Hi All,

I need some advice as I am torn btw ai tong and chong fu.I was ex ai tong gal, but as I shifted to yishun and my parents transfer me out when I am in Pri 3.So right now if I am gg to put my boy to ai tong,he more or less will be confirm as phase 2A, but Im afraid the travelling distance will wear him out eventually.If I am gg to be put him to chong fu which I stay < 1km , but will be under phase 2B instead. That’s means if there might be chance that I am not be able to go in chong fu under phase 2B, it will seems like I wasted all these chances … any parents face this before?
