Hi Vealshank,vealshank wrote:I am a UWC East mum and we are very happy with the school. I don't have experience first hand of the other schools but there are a few ex Canadian School students now at UWC in my daughter's class and their parents were not happy at the previous school for a variety of reasons.
If you would like specific info about UWC please feel free to PM me.
Good luck
Thank you Vealshank for the great info.vealshank wrote:Hi,
My daughter is in year 2 and is at the east campus. They will move to Tampines in August where the facilities will be a lot better than what they are at AMK. The drama and art departments are really incredible.
As it is a PYP program at UWC they do what is called a "Unit of Enquiry" each term. This subject or theme runs through everything they do - from writing, art, music, drama etc so even while they are doing the more creative stuff, they are hopefully still learning about their key theme.
I am very happy with the mix of academic vs more creative learning. I know that this isn't for everyone though and some people think they are not doing enough academic work.
There is a lot of parent involvement stuff as well which some people love and others not so much. For example, last week the kids did a "Poetry cafe" in their class rooms and read us poetry that they had written. There is also a lot of student led learning activities that involve parents.
Please PM me if you want anything more specific.
Good luck with your choices
