Thanks The Ref ! So are you as happy about UWC as you were about Dover Court ? Are your kids happy about this switch ?The Ref wrote:My kids went to Dover Court and we thought it was a wonderful school. However Year 8 most kids leave the school so the class sizes are very small and there are such few kids to socialise with. We pulled our children out and sent them to UWC because of the limited number of children.
I don't know much about CIS but I know a few families who go there and they seem to be reasonably happy with the school.
Thank you very much PNGMK !PNGMK wrote:I wouldn't recommend CIS. I know too many teachers there who have a low opinion of it.
If your kids are doing O and A levels you could consider the local school system as well. French is an optional second language. Math and Science are Singapore's shining expertise from a global perspective.
The local schools are available if they have places available. You need to talk to the Ministry of Education. There's a lot of info on this forum about how to get a place in the local schools. If you kids do well here there are then options to matriculate into the local uni system as well I believe.newsingmum wrote:Thank you very much PNGMK !PNGMK wrote:I wouldn't recommend CIS.

You kind of confirmed my feeling about CIS. No need for an expensive fancy school which is not performing well academically.
I guess local schools have a very good reputation as well. I thought these were for Singaporeans only. A new option to explore maybe...
