Pat's Schoolhouse

[empressplace]

Thanks to Mrs Patricia Koh for making the effort to explain.


On the issue of class ratio, it is not the MCYS recommended class ratio I was referring to. On PSH’s website, the nursery class ratio is 1:8 which, to me, means a maximum class size of 16 (for 2 teachers). However, a nursery class could exceed 16. I have spoken to a few PSH personnel (staff and management) on this point but the impression I have is that the ratio stated on the website is just a guideline. Subsequently I got busy and did not pursue this point any further.

I thought I was kiasu to want to enroll for my 6 months old baby. But I was not.... zZzzz... Most of the centres are full already Left me with only Raffles. Sad, preferred Halifax but they can only take in siblings and toddlers from Baby Haven...

same here. mine was six months old and the waiting list was longer than a roll of toilet papers. :faint: and i thought i was kiasu too at that time but realised i wasnt the only one.

if you want to put your child in a popular school, better check to see if u are able to register and put her on waiting list even if she is still in your tummy.

getting a place in popular schools, be it high end or neighbourhood, is getting very very difficult now and going forward.

it was easy to get dd into a school but for ds who is 7 now, the waiting list was a :yikes: . now if i know a friend has a bun in the oven, my first advice is look for a school now. dont wait.

all the best.
