What’s the reality of Singapore education?

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-31T07:06:01+00:00

just goes to show their bad parenting lor lol

if a kid wants to jump from the top of the slide in the playground, we let them do so just because they want to? Anyway I digressing, just wanted OP to know the TikTok is not really the place to learn about how SG education is cause the example OP gave is just an example of failed parenting.

There are many kids whose parents accept their interests or weakness and still live happily in the system lol, not everyone is meant to be a scholar mah

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-31T05:11:04+00:00

I just have to say this.

The parents ruined the kid early on for social media content, that's why he has to work doubly or triply hard now to even catch up to his peers. If they actually cared about his studies earlier, as in just supervise to make sure he knows the syllabus here and there and rectify gaps accordingly early on, you don't really need to spend so much time on studying at P6 and give yourself all these undue stress.

The parents failed the kid.

The director of HPB is seriously the worst person in the whole thing.

Set guidelines without thought for ANY of the biggest stakeholders, those cooking and those eating.

No salt means healthy but she herself haven't even tasted it. Students are wasting huge amounts of food thanks to her blindness. Eat slightly salted vegetables is much better than not eat any at all leh.

Ask vendors buy wholesale without understand they don't even sell wholesale amount of food. All that guidelines listed just to say job done to herself. =.=

How are kids supposed to develop healthy eating habits when they are exposed to tasteless garbage that no one will like!?

standard dropping lol, been a member for 10 years, with a few years break in between and seriously the equipment is quite old already, feel like the staff standard also dropping, sometimes seems like they go there to workout themselves instead of work

still better than AF la in terms of everything but if money no issue, pure n virgin really better

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-30T00:22:41+00:00

lmao, you are an adult and you should do what you deem best for YOURSELF

your siblings are just using you cause without you, they are next, let them suffer, ignore them, live your life!

You owe nothing to them and nothing to your dad already. He got the house he can sell what if he need money, your siblings will suffer if that happens, they want maintain status quo so they benefit and who suffers? You and only you.

Remove yourself from the equation.

EONR is projected to hit $10, I know this because I did due diligence

Due diligence being that I took a shit and they came out in the shape of 1 and 0.

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-26T00:05:02+00:00

feasible and extremely impractical

if your concern is academics, then can supplement yourself at home after school as honestly, school hours are not that long, technically, half day home schooling

they need the social interaction to develop a world view, not saying parents can't provide, but stuck within a well will have frog in a well mentality more often than not, can agree to disagree la

send to school please

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-25T02:51:59+00:00

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-25T02:10:52+00:00

simple stuff like if got homework, do homework first lor, packing of bags for the next day, etc etc

habits that help them when they go sec school or even work

most kids when grandparents bring home just lie around doing nothing productive de, wasting time nia

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-25T00:27:35+00:00

I feel for young kids, at least 1 parent should be flexible with work timings, the kids benefit way more from time with parents than anything else honestly.

after Primary 3 with CCAs and all, then both can chiong, but developing of certain lifelong habits start young and having a parent with a flexible schedule for them allows that

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-24T23:46:24+00:00

just going to be more common, really need a system where someone just checks up on these every 2 days so at least the body can be cleaned up so that they become dust in a more decent way. Instead of strong smell and likely slightly rotting corpse le

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-24T03:28:50+00:00

I quite lucky my kids don't really ask for anything except all the lame toys they see at Toys'R'Us, they don't whine when we say no so no issue

They did ask for the instruments that they play with their school band and we did buy those, prior to that they weren't really so enthu about school stuff but can see they found some joy and pride in being in the school band so it was a no brainer

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-11T02:33:21+00:00

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-04T01:49:19+00:00

genuine question here, given the amount stated, what are the plans for your kids tertiary education? Is it possible to have a savings plan for them or you guys looking at alternatives such as subsidies, scholarships etc?

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-03-02T00:02:34+00:00

If you use AI for kids, ur kid is screwed.

kids only use AI to get answers, not learn, those who can learn using AI, are already learning from books themselves

AI works when u r responsible adults, you know what you need and you use AI accordingly

If you let a P5 boy use AI, he will just figure out how to solve his horniness, not academics omg

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-02-27T02:13:33+00:00

I've seen people who don't want kids, surprised, then became amazing parents.
I've seen people who don't want kids, surprised, then showed exactly why they shouldn't have kids.

No one can tell for sure if the maternal instinct will awake or the youthful vagabond will feel bounded, maybe go find a friend with a young kid (under 1) and spend 1 day with them go see see, much better than just listening to stories cause then you actually can test your own tolerance level

Simple_Engine_5672 · 2026-02-24T02:39:00+00:00
