      With an unsupportive P like the previous one, teachers dun feel comfortable working in the environment. They will feel tired from dealing with unnecessary stuff and underappreciated which affects their morale, affecting the kids' learning.

      But since a new P is coming in, let us all give him a chance.

      Just my thoughts.
      Should be the current VP not the leaving principal. After she joined the school, many
      Teachers left. Maybe an ongoing problem before she joined. But situation definitely escalated after she joined. This why I thought whether is because of year head and HOD forming clique outcasting fellow teachers.

      I actually agree with @Courtly above.

      Indeed, such toxic behaviour of the management (and even hods) needs to be eradicated. It is totally disgusting to be double standard and multiple-faced.

      I certainly hope that more competent and compassionate individuals can improve on the situation.
      Hi , Are u a staff from the school?

      Xms school used to gave me very good impression. ( please look at my previous post). But not anymore. It is true that many teachers left the school. A red flag with the school management. Apparently problems arise when the new chinese VP transferred in 2 years plus ago. She replaced the outgoing malay ex VP.

      I am wondering if the reason for teachers leaving is because of senior teachers (year head N hod) that are longer in the school forming clique outcasting fellow teachers.
      Let hope the new principal will change the environment and purge out the toxic. For the benefits of students and good teachers.

      For those scoring 234 and above.

      Will strongly recommend Xinmin Secondary (XMS).
      Especially for those staying north east area.
      Serangoon,Hougang ,sengkang and punggol.

      Smaller cohort of only 4 Express class which is 130-150 students.
      As compare to full Express stream school of 240-300 students per cohort.

      Xinmin secondary is an autonomous school.

      High % eligible for JC.
      2019 90.36%
      2018 93.8 %
      2017 91.7%
      2016 93.8%
      Which compute into 9 in 10 Express stream students qualify for JC.

      Another significant factor is XMS offers triple science class. Which greatly enhanced
      Students chances entering JC science stream.

      Note: XMS is among few autonomous schools that offers triple science.

      4 classes will further filter into 5 classes during Sec 3.

      1 triple pure science class.
      1 double pure (Chem physics)
      1 double pure (Chem bio)
      2 art classes.

      How to qualify for Triple Science ?

      A1 grade for Sec 2 (English, Maths, Science) at end of Sec 2 streaming, plus minimum 70 percent overall, including Mother tongue and combined Social studies ?

      (Asking for a friend's child, interested in Xinmin)

      A2 for science and 75% overall for triple science class . Which is achievable for most.

      There is another 2 classes for double pure.

      From Sec 3 onwards class size gets smaller.
      Teacher and or student can better focus on their O level at the end of sec4.

      XMS is ideal for those staying in northeast

      area, Scoring 235 and above , wants to enter JC science stream.

      Strict discipline and well mannered students.

      Has a long list of CCA for those aiming to get the CCA LEAPS 2.0

      only 1 class, the rest all (Double Science + Double Humanities) ?

      4 classes will further filter into 5 classes during Sec 3.
      1 triple pure science class.
      1 double pure (Chem physics)
