Hi,
My daughter scraped past her PSLE with a score of 180+ and got into the NA stream at STC. There was no doubt about sending her to STC. We made STC her first choice, despite the distance. We were living at Bukit Batok at the time (not near the MRT). It was the only school for us.
By year 3, she was promoted back to Express. The Principal and teachers had done a tremendous job supporting her throughout her journey in secondary school. She did well enough to get into her course of choice at a polytechnic. Her recent exam score had a GPA of 4.0 (straight As and distinctions).
If all goes well, she may go on to a Business degree at SMU.
Sometimes our children may bloom later in life. As long as they are in a supportive environment, miracles can occur. The journey had been hard, but it was all worth it.
Sometimes, we just have to follow what we feel is right.
We did, and never regretted a single day. Good luck!

The students would have to take a bus from either Tiong Bahru station (bus service 123) or HarbourFront station.

Hi Everyone,
I guess not many people will read this forum. But I would like to say that I’m very glad I sent my daughter to STC. This is her final year, and she’s had the time of her life these four years. She has done so much - YOG, leadership training, student leader, trip to Laos…etc. STC may not always produce top academic scorers, but I can say that when it comes to character building and personal development, STC produces many well behaved, cheerful and confident girls. Kudos to the principal and the teaching staff. I’ve never seen such a dedicated group of professionals working so hard to bring out the best in our children. It has always been a joy for my husband and I to visit the school for their parents’ events. I will miss those visits once my daughter graduates.
