St Joseph's Institution Junior

[Saints]

Am very new at this. Not sure if I am doing this right by writing on this thread. We have to register our boy this year and we deciding between SJIJ and Maris Stella. Can anyone share more about SJIJ? Really anxious about which school is good for him. He is rather active and vocal. Not sure which environment would be suitable for him.

Hi jaded,


No offence, but I think it's a bit unfair to the school for you to drop such comment WITHOUT elaborate much. It seems to be a competitor school trying to 'tarnish' the reputation of the school (if you know what I mean).

Hi, no offence taken. Lets just say ive witnessed first hand experiences? or perhaps you would like to drop me a personal message to find out more .but please, if you are part of the parents support group, please stay away from me as i do not want to be \"sued\" in any way for my sharing.

i am in no way trying to tarnish the reputation. im just trying to do honest sharing here

cheers

I must say, when I first got my son in (i am an old boy) I was glad that I did not have to worry about hings like balloting and such. But as time went on I realised that Administration management wise, the school is a throwback to those in the early 70s and 80s.


Management is trying to do things, but I wonder how on board the teachers are to ensure student learning and safety.

jaded,

Sent you a PM too. Interested to hear of your personal experiences.

Have yet to hear from jaded via PM although he said he was willing to share via PM. Maybe he doesn’t log on that frequently. Anyone who has heard from jaded via PM and willing to share, please PM me. Thanks.
