Hi Melchan,


To clarify, what I have heard is definitely true. I trust my friend who is not the sort to make up stories about a child’s education experience. I assume it is everyone’s intention who uses the Kiasu forum to share our experiences so as to make a better decision for our kids. If a school is really good, it doesn’t have to worry about competitors making up gossips and hearsays as they will not stand.

In the case of CH Mountbatten, we have seen from Makoshark’s comments that there is evidence that there are other unhappy parents out there who are not satisfied with CH Mountbatten’s performance.

Which branch of CH do you send your child to ? As mentioned, the school is only as good as the teacher that your child gets. Subsequently my friend sent her kid to Marymount Kindergarten and was impressed by their standards. The school fees is only a fraction of what is of CH and the kids there definitely look happy and well behaved.

Please don’t take our reviews personally, as we are just genuinely sharing what we have heard/ experienced about CH Mountbatten.

Hi Windie,


I am looking at nursery level for kids turning 4 years old. Can you let me know what complaints u had assuming yr child was only there a short while ? Appreciate it. Tks ![/quote]

Hi Pocky7C,


Agree. The school is only as good as the teachers get. You need the teachers to deliver what the school promised to do for its students.
If yr kids don’t get a good teacher, it doesn’t matter how good the school’s philosophy is. Seems like the new teacher at Mtbatten didn’t get good reviews from a few of her class parents. Friend said other than the teacher’s lack of response, one parent even commented that their kid became more withdrawn after starting school at this branch, which is not in line with CH’s culture. Not sure what role the principal played or did not play in this instance. That’s why the rest of our friends who were considering the Mt batten branch changed our mind about sending our kids there. Good to know that your kid is happy at a different branch. But heard long waitlist at other branches at all times.

Hi Mummies,


Heard not so good comments on CH’s new branch at Mountbatten. Some teachers are new and thus, don’t get your money’s worth for the "CH thingy" that you pay for. Check out the teacher’s previous experiences and qualifications before you send your child in. I guess other branches might be better.

Hi Desertwind,


Thanks for the infor. Appreciate it. Will do that !

Hi Mummies,
