As my old primary school is right beside East View, I can say that the students are not the most well-behaved & I have seen some smoking cigarettes on a few occasions.

Hi Eastspringian, glad to see your post. We have attended your school's Open House last Saturday and are so happy with what we saw that we have selected East Spring Sec as the 1st choice for our son. Is there anything you can share with me about your school? How has your teachers helped you in your development in academics, CCA and leadership qualities, and what do you like & dislike about your school? Are there any bullying issues and how would you advise a new student entering Sec 1 in your school to cope? Any other information you could share would be extremely helpful. Thank you

I don't really know what you want to you, but since you asked a certain questions, I would just reply them! If you still do have any other questions, I will reply you ASAP!!
Generally, the teachers in my school, are very dedicated, not too sure about others, but I am in this school for 3 years now, and all the teachers that taught me have never gave us 'free periods' in which we can do anything, especially before our exams, after exams, some will allow us to enjoy(especially after EOYS), academically, east spring has always been a huge help to me, teachers are often willing to give consultations if you ask from them, and some would ask you to whether you do need consultations if they think that you are weak in that certain subjects.
East spring also believes in developing their students character, and have talks about our school values from our own student who excels in that certain value. East spring have definitely inculcated theirs set of values in me!
In east spring, the school believes in every child gets a chance to be a leader(of course, if it's those main ones, then not all will get the chance), and if you show that you is the 'leader-material' during the first year, they will get you to interview(but if you want to be a leader and was not selected, you can go for it too) and see whether you qualify for prefectorial board.
I believe that there are a lot of CCAs in my school, and that you will definitely be able to join one that you like, and when you do so, please do not quit, because your points will be all gone if you don't have a medical reason for changing your cca.
There are of course black Sheep every where, I wouldn't say that there ain't any bullying cases, but I would dare to say that once the school found out that somebody is being bullied, they will make sure to investigate, and then punish the student who was bullying others.
As for my advice, I think that your son should really join the camp(there should be a camp on the first few days of school), by joining the camp, it will get you to know more people, and interact with them, and that to keep a open 'arms' to everybody, don't be too quiet, unless you don't mind being alone, as for my batch/class, everybody was enthusiastic, so we had fun during the camp!
Have fun in east spring!
