NPS Vs GIIS
NPS Vs GIIS
Hi all,
We moved to Singapore from Hyderabad , and we are have shortlisted NPS and GIIS for our daughters schooling and visited the schools also. However we are looking for some reviews on NPS and GIIS for us to be able to make a right choice. Any feedback from parents of children studying in these schools would be very helpful.
My daughter will be going to grade 1.

Re: NPS Vs GIIS
Hi ,
We moved to India last year and I put my child in GIIS, I am highly disappointed by this school, its smart campus just for the sake. Teacher in primary are highly disappointing, lack of communication and above all there are examples I have seen in my child copy that hindi teacher herself wrting wrong hindi in notebook. No individual focus to kids performance, they just display the work on so called smart TV of smart campus and teacher never bothered to correct student if they writing anything wrong. Highly and extremely disappointed. Will withdraw my child after this session.

Re: NPS Vs GIIS
If you moved to india last year why are you putting your children in GIIS. You are complaining about poor grammar, etc., but yet you don't even proofread your own writing that is NOT done on the fly in the classroom, so there is no reason not to proofread before hitting send/post/submit.sonam.sahni wrote: ↑Fri, 13 Jan 2023 8:35 pmHi ,

Is it just me or does this make no sense?

All for profit schools are shite because the financial model means pay the least possible to teachers and charge the parents the most.

Re: NPS Vs GIIS
It's just you.
So you also have a hard time with idioms? He is complaining of errors happening in the classroom "examples I have seen in my child copy that hindi teacher herself wrting wrong hindi in notebook." If it is written in the classroom during school session, and not alone where you have ample time to go back and proofread your prose, then it can be said to be written on the fly. He obviously didn't proofread his copy before hitting send or he would have caught the error of "moved to India last year" as well as the various other errors. Oh, GIIS is located in Singapore, not India. Link under International Schools on this board. I didn't point out the capitalization and spelling earlier as we all do that but when you get the country wrong it changes the whole context of what he was saying.

How's this feel>>>again.To do something on the fly means to do something without thought, one simply reacts to the situation as problems are presented.

Re: NPS Vs GIIS
I know what "on the fly" means, thanks. It's the construction of this sentence that doesn't make sense. Too long in Singapore perhaps?
"but yet you don't even proofread your own writing that is NOT done on the fly in the classroom."

Re: NPS Vs GIIS
There is nothing incorrect in the sentence structure if you read it in context with the post it refers to. But then this doesn't really surprise me.

Re: NPS Vs GIIS
Completely agree, and you can see it in the way the school is managed and the way teachers handle students, they're simply not paid enough to care.
