Thank you zac’s mum (I’m a fan!) and other parents for your kind sharing. Goes a long way in managing expectations. Really much appreciated.

Hi parents, may I ask if anyone knows the average percentage of ACSP and ACSJ boys making it to ACS Independent (IB) and ACS Independent (O level)? Thanks in advance!

Hi Coolit,


Thanks for the reply and for sharing your valuable insights, I really appreciate it!

Coincidentally enough, someone else mentioned Childfirst to me today (before that, it wasn't on my radar at all). Unfortunately, their branches are too far away for me and I heard the teachers are \"not the huggie-feely\" kind. Between Two Trees sounds promising (at the end of the day, it's still the teachers who are the most important factor I reckon), and will definitely check it out.

You are right - Mindchamps does feel more clinical to me as well, but the cleanliness factor is a huge plus (at least for those branches I visited!). I must say the Food Network fan in me was also sold on their Gourmet Moments program:P I liked Kiddiewinkie too... more outdoor space and sunlight, and I was rather impressed with the principal's experience and candour during my visit. Net, this mama likes both (argh!) so I guess I will bring the kiddie along with me next time and let him decide

Thanks again for your insights!

Hi Coolit, thanks for sharing!


If you don’t mind me asking, which Mindchamps are you at? The reason I ask is because I’m considering Pat’s, Kiddiewinkie and Mindchamps… but for Mindchamps, what I heard was that most centres are franchised so it really depends on how good the franchisee mgt is.

Thanks!

Hi,


Am wondering if anyone has feedback on Chiltern House Thomson? Also, what is the curriculum for a typical half and full day there? I’m considering CH Thomson, Pat Schoolhouse Buckley and Mindchamps @ Zhongshan.

Any feedback or thoughts much appreciated!
