Education of Singapore

Impress To Win
How beautiful it is FROM FAR the banner “People Developer” - Developing Our Staff To Their Fullest Potential. Everyday I send my children to school, I can see the banner. It was so new, so nice at first, but look at the banner now. A closer look and you can see it was torn and vandalized. This is what developing Singaporean is all about! Our education we received, and some more outside the school!
Strike Me, COME I WELCOME YOU
What’s more, I received phone call from teacher Nana and teacher Sarsivanni (NOT their REAL NAME, in case I GET SUE!!) asking me to ‘take down’ the name of the teacher (Sarsivanni) on behalf of the PRINCIPAL.
Sin or Be SEEN
You know Singapore, everything under surveillance. This little red dot, what can you do much? Stand or walk around in the classroom and you will be seen or probably treated as SIN when you wanted to pick something up….. As a parent, as a Singaporean, DO I HAVE ANY HUMAN RIGHTS to voice out my opinion, to pour out my sorrows on my PERSONAL BLOG? Everything want to interfere, everything want to intervene, people make love, have sex need timing or need to write down the rules and right steps?
How nice everything was, everything in black and white? For show, all for SHOW!!!!
Philosophy - Parent’s talent and involvement is resource to achieve excellence in education.
Belief - The school believes that parental involvement is indispensable for the optimum nature of each child entrusted to it.

Mission - To promote collaboration between parents and the school; To optimize on the former’s expertise/talents and resources; To enhance the quality of the school’s selected programmes.
Vision - School-Parent Collaboration for excellence
Does the school HEAR WHAT WE, PARENTS SAY?
Parent-School or Parent-Teacher Collaboration???
What kind of things are they preaching? For Five years, my child is in the school. For five years, I had gone to their open house, received their newsletter and tried to ‘communicate’ with the teachers, and principals (when I cannot get the teachers). But how many teachers (especially the Chinese teacher, and I still know their names, make my blood boil. NO COLLABORATION, No HUE (do not border at all about the children’s welfare!!!! China teacher some more. Well, that is over, but it is definitely going to affect other children!
What is Human Dignity?
Whatever it is, they want to sue me, go ahead, for matters like that! They want to sue me, they are going to lose face as well. I have no money to go through all the lawyers’ fees. Go ahead and sue me. What is education? A teacher saying such a thing to a parent? A principal asking the teacher to call on her behalf? She got no guts? (And putting words into my mouth! — vomit blood! 冤枉 (Yuan Wang = injustice) !!!!! Just because it is words they can anyhow twist and twist and twist what they like to say!!!!
What the school teaches? What the children grow up to be?
And so I can also twist what I say here? But I am not this kind of people. Sue me if you want, I done nothing wrong. What is right and what is wrong? Do the teachers and Principal know themselves? This is called collaboration?
What is EDUCATION?
I tell you, there are lots of things to be said, not only about school, but all around Singapore. Something is obviously wrong with the Education of Singapore, and you can see we are all Products of Singapore. It’s a disgrace, utter disgrace, Xia3 Xue2 (disgrace and nothing glamourous).
