Can share on review on Admiralty Secondary School.

Admiralty SS has very strong bonding among the school leaders, parents, teachers, students and alumni, the school places importance and value its partnership with parents.

The school has caring and supportive environment. Strict discipline. Slow progress students are well supported and high ability students are well stretched. PSG is very strong, responsive and supportive.

Students from all streams are nurtured equally, and most importantly many learning opportunities open to all students.

After seeing elder children progress well, many parents have more than a child are studying in the school even though their children have higher t-score and eligible for other schools.

From other Forums, many parents share very positive feedback/reviews.

Students have personal learning devices, iPad while other still rely on shared facilities such as computer labs for ICT-based lessons.

The school has unique Applied Learning Programme (ALP) which integrates Design Thinking with learning journeys, many school programmes are designed to gets its students to become future ready, to be empathetic, critical thinkers and innovators.

All students regardless of stream are having at least a chance to participate in cultural immersion programme during secondary education in the school.

[quote=\"coolbaby\"]Thanks TWU for sharing about the 2 schools. My ds1 is in WRSS. And it’s my ds2 turns to choose his sch now.

I hv no doubt about WRSS. I would like to find out more about ADSS. Sadly we missed the open house.
May I know are they strict in disciplining? Students behaviour esp when they are outside the school?
How’s the teachers? Are they caring and approachable ?
What’s the school hours?
My apologies for so many questions.
Thanks in advance!

Good afternoon coolbaby,

You’re most welcome

Principal, Vice-Principals and teachers of ADSS are approachable, caring and dedicated.

ADSS has very strict discipline. Parents and teachers work closely. Parents will be invited to have discussions with teachers not only about academic results as well as to discuss about well being/good character building of their children.

PSG is very active and supportive, has arranged various parent-child bonding activities, visits to post-secondary educational institutions eg ITE, JC, Polytechnic (with provision of 2-way transportation) in order to enable parents including parents of S1 students to have good understanding about post secondary education (school has arranged its students to visit the said educational institutions too and to invite representatives of JC to give talk at school).

I have seen students are doing well and parents appreciate support from school (originally, some parents hesitated to choose ADSS as its Low COP as parents tend to base on COP and behaviour of some students to judge a school, some of their friends gave them hearsay information). Recently, they have shared with me their children are happy with the school and they are surprised about the support and opportunities given to the students. Most important, it’s totally different from they have heard about the school.

Students are to reach schools no later than 7.25 am (except for a day, to report by 8 am) and lessons of all levels end by 3 pm (12.40 pm on Friday).

Students are well mannered. I seldom see its students wander at nearby shopping mall (previously, some lower secondary students played after school at nearby residential area, school took immediate action to stop students and educated them).

ADSS emphasizes on good character building and has own customised Character and Citizenship education which is part of its curricula.

Hey TWU


Thanks so much for sharing! Highly appreciate your time and effort in sharing about the school.
Just 1 last question: Is ADSS using iPad to replace their textbooks?
I wonder if this is good or bad? Do you know since when they started intro iPad to the students?
