It doesn't reflect the overall performance. Only a 100% pass for all PSLE students in the school itself is considered a highly measurable performance. If 5% did not pass, why? We should also look at which secondary schools the students go to.

Sembawang Primary is not popular among the neighbourhood schools in Sembawang, though it is a good school having 1 or 2  PSLE t-score marks difference as compared to others for the past few years which I noticed. It is keeping low profile and not active on social media even though they have new programmes or participating in competitions.<br /><br /><br />My child is currently studying in the school. The school had renovated last year. They have a big field and Eco garden. The dragon fruit tree, the sunflowers and  orchids which my child will talk about after school besides just studies and friends. I can see the change in personal character from shy to a confident one. The school is expecting the best from the students not just in academic only but also character building. They invites grandparents to the school to celebrate festivals with them. Students learn different cultures by wearing traditional clothes and share the festival cookies. <br /><br />The school won a number of awards in CCA like in Ruby and Chinese Orchestra throughout the years. They participate in youth festivals. They introduces swimming and pottery for lower primary. Teachers are caring and passionate especially Mother Tongue teachers.They will circle out all wrong words written and let them know the correct strokes of the Chinese characters. They have literature lessons during supplementary class. Students learn to make use of YouTube to search for science information. Learning journeys to science centre, discovery centre, art museum, road safety park, camping and oversea learning programmes in Malaysia are the ones that students can learn creatively outside classrooms. Overall, I am satisfied with the school activities that keep students busy.</p>
