Hi, my girl is taking her O levels this year in SMSS. She is not from the affiliated primary and scored 242 then.

Overall, I find that it is a well-balanced school where they do not overly stress the girls with academic work. Most of the girls are well behave as the disciplined is strict. Of course not all teachers are good but my girl copes well with her subjects with no tuition except for Math crash course last year to prepare for O levels.
As a parent, I’m glad that my girl studied there as many of her peers from other schools whether elite or neighbourhood ones have tons of homework to do. She was spared from much unnecessary stress which I’m very thankful for.
I will recommend this school but the child surely have to be diligent in her studies wherever she is to do well. All the best.

Hi Jann Phonics,


One of my friends keen to enrol her daughter, into St Margaret Secondary.

Is it ok to share, for O level 2018 this year, ie. your daughter’s batch, how many Sec 4 Triple Science classes were opened ?
Is it just one, or more than one ? Thank you.

[Jann Phonics]

There is only one Triple Science class.

Hi , My girl will be going to St Margarets Sec in yr 2020 , CO got through DSA . Can I get some insights on the school’s academic environment and pls share your experience/ your girls experience with this school in past years

[Jann Phonics]

Hi, St Margaret's academic environment is well paced. Throughout the 4 years, they were not given tons of homework and I don't remember my girl having to stay up late for homework except for examination period and occasionally project assignment. The school is neither slack nor pushy so the balance is good. Of course she also had her fair share of stress during exam period esp the first time she encountered 2 heavy weight subjects tested on the same day in Sec 3. But she learnt to manage it better in Sec 4. I don't understand why can't they schedule one subject per day in 'O' levels exam. Coping with 2 different subjects on the same day, plus the quantity and quality of work to study is very stressful for any student. The system has been such so what we can do as parents is to keep watch of our kids stress level and be there for them and give them moral support. I can't help her during those moments but I stayed up late with her when she struggled and gave her massage whenever she needed.


St Margaret's discipline is rather strict. The girls In my DD's class is generally well behaved. Now that she has graduated, she misses her sec school days very much.

All in all, it has been a good choice and my girl and her friends grew up to be young fine ladies. You can view my post on her graduation in my Facebook Jann Phonics.
All glory to God
