hi... never thot i wil become a kiasu parent but it seems the day is finally here (ha... april fools' day...)

chief... can u advise the following, and other kiasu followers' contributions are most warmly welcomed...

1. what's all this talk abt single session vs 2 sessions for primary schs please... pls advise... i am truly out of touch and feel like an alien on planet primary schools. what is the benefit??

2. can someone out there pls advise which top school around has minimum homework pls?! i saw this written somewhere in the forum but cannot find out who wrote it and ask which sch he/she is referring to. i am not particularly keen on having my kid do tons of homework til late at nite at this age...

3. which top 10 school ranked in academic performance has afternoon sessions for pri 1 or are all of them only morning? my gal is really not the morning type and i confess my worries!!!!!

4. was thinking of moving to sch of choice but need to know if being within 1km of that sch means i have to maintain that address for the entire 6 years?!

5. some views of single sex vs co-ed education at primary level... are gals in girls' sch very aggressive? my gal pal tells me she thinks the boys in class tends to be gentle with the gals unlike the rough and tough gals in gals' schs who bully each other... any truth in this please??


kam sia... kam sia...help!!!
