PCF/PAP Kindergartens
-
They don’t have Pre-N for this centre. Which means I’ll register my son elsewhere.

Hi,
I’m new to this forum and just want to share my experience about PCF.
My daughter is also in the "premium" PCF at 662B Jurong West. She is in K1 this year. I’m glad that this year the school assigned a teacher to the class. Last year was not the case. The school assigned the Chinese teacher as the class teacher and she only teached Chinese lesson. For English lesson, another teacher will take over. The Chinese teacher need to teach Chinese lesson for other classes as well so my daughther’s class was like under "no proper teacher" situation. As a result, the children’s progress was affected. Many parents were unhappy and had feedback to the principle but unfortunately there were no improvement.
As for this year (K1), the teacher is great (not the same teacher in N2, both the Chinese and English teachers no longer teaching in the school). She is nice and firm to the children. The children are quite well behaved in the class. The Chinese teacher (Lin 老师）is also very good. My daughter’s Chinese has improved a lot.
So, in my opinion, not only different school has different standard, the principal or the head centre and the teacher also play a part. -
Anyone have kids in PCF @ BLK 661B, i have registered my son there for 2010 under N2. Wonder how is the teacher and centre head there.
thnks! -

The centre head (Ms. Claire Ng) and principal (Ms. Cheah) same as 662B. They incharged for several branches in Jurong West ares. As for teacher, I’m not sure. -

thnks -
little doggie,
For me, I bought 2 sets of uniform, 1 set of pe uniform and 2 badges. PE attire only for Wednesday and Friday. Besides school fee, you need to pay for book fee and supplementary fee every have a year. I need to pay school fee for school holiday as well. Do you need to ? -
Dawn
ok, thnks for the info.
Can i know what is the badget for? so u dun buy the cap?
Ya same as u, need to pay for school holiday! -
little doggie,
The badget is for the uniform. You either iron or sew it to the uniform’s pocket. I didn’t buy the cap. I don’t see any use.
