Hi mambobb and micollh,


thank u very much for your replies. Guess I will send my DD to extra classes once she is old enough.

So what is the standard of N, K1 , K2 syllabus for MFS? Is it more advance than PCF K1 K2 standard?

Sienta,

i think the syllabus in MFS is standard. most N, K1/2 the same. They have enrichment which is optional like drama and speech, kindermusic, chinese theatre, you can sign up for ur DD, as i did too, as the classes will be conducted during their cc's hour mah.. they get to learn different thing too.

PCF is half day, from wat i know ?(my col's DS is with PCF), they teach even slower.. cos few hours only. but i guess the syllabus more or less the same. they all under MOE, must follow the syllabus established by MOE.

playgroup is 3 yo, nursery is 4 yo, K1 is 5, K2 is 6. ur child 2008 is playgroup. as my DD is 2007 in nursery this year. there is no N1 N2, only one nursery then K1 K2. Hope this helps.

Hmm, then u just replace the N1 with playgroup, and the N2 with N. then that's MFS

I am also considering transferring my son to MFS @ Bishan St 13 once it is open. I am attracted by the sch fees! It is 50% cheaper than the current sch.


But there is a risk that it will be a bunch of new teachers and principal. not sure how 'devoted' they are until we are in it.

For existing parents, issit true that there a handful of YOUNG teachers?

And do they have take-home material at the end of one month to update parents what has been taught?

Any parents has kid tat is now @ K2 level. Do u think ur kid is prep enuff for Pr1?
