I am reviewing a
When i placed deposit for my child’s enrolment, the parent handbook from small wonder and admin assistant told me a 1-time deferment to the enrolment date was allowed. However when i approached the senior centre director for help as my child need to defer his enrolemnt, she said no deferment was allowed actually and her tone was unhelpful and impatient. Small wonder changed their policy without informing parents, pls register at your own risk.
All my 3 children are in star learners ang mo kio since playgroup to k2. Their teachers are caring & patient especially 王老师。highly recommended to send your child to this centre.
PCF SPARKLETOTS PRESCHOOL @ TOA PAYOH EAST BLK 232 (CC)
The Worst School Experience I’ve Had: A Parent’s Warning I feel compelled to share my experience with an infant care center that left me deeply disappointed and frustrated. I enrolled my baby in this school in April and withdrew him in May. In total, he only attended for 13 days in April and 6 days in May — far from a full month in either case. The main reason I decided to withdraw my baby was on the advice of a doctor. Shortly after starting at the school, my baby began falling sick repeatedly. He would recover for a few days, return to school, and then fall sick again. It became a painful cycle no parent wants to see their child go through. Before enrolling, I specifically asked the admin staff about the caregiver-to-baby ratio. I was assured that one teacher would be responsible for only two babies. However, in reality, I found that one teacher was often looking after more than two babies at a time. This lack of proper supervision was unacceptable and misleading. Another serious concern was hygiene. It became clear to me that the school allowed unwell babies to attend, putting other children at risk. It was obvious that hygiene and health protocols were not strictly followed — something that should be a top priority in any childcare environment. Despite my decision not to send my baby in June, I was still charged the full month’s fee — and without any subsidy. That felt extremely unfair, especially since my child did not attend at all and I had already informed them of the withdrawal. At this point, I honestly don’t think any parent would want to continue sending their child there. As a parent, the safety and well-being of our children should come first. I hope this review helps other parents make more informed choices. Don’t be afraid to ask the tough questions — and don’t settle when your instincts tell you something’s wrong.
SWEETLANDS CHILDCARE @ 316 JURONG EAST
My girl graduated from this centre back in 2024. Pros : The K2 teacher Uni is firm yet my girl loves to go to school. Teacher would maintain a good parent teacher communication when i pick my child up. My child turns out to be very bubbly when she took over from teacher teo. Still sees Teacher Uni around and she will always says hello & ask about my daughter's wellbeing. - the group of teachers there is so welcoming. Teacher Rebecca, Teacher Nissan is a very joyful bunch of educators. Always smiling and handling the kids well. Teaxher Nissan is always smiling every morning during arrival. Cons - Chinese teacher always not around. I think the turnover rate for language teacher is high. The english teachers have been there for quite some time. - i feel the principal needs to work on being friendly or so. Her aura is not welcoming and always delay my queries. The teachers can get back to me faster than the principal.
My child has been attending school since she turned 18 months. The teachers are kind and have always been quick with their updates. The app used by the school is also very useful. The weekly updates sent by the teachers is very interesting and helps me have follow up conversations with my child about what happens in school. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the curriculum and the teachers.
Dedicated teachers, clean school, great curriculum! As a mother i can work at ease knowing my kids are in good hands
Just okay type. Principal who joined in 2020/21 was good, not the one before that a tall lady very bossy. My child who is p4 now can still tell me that a Chinese teacher used to smile n talk with everyone except him coz not same type. Children remember things that affected them. I speak up now coz certain things I faced still pain me. And oh the scary English book they had, don't know still have!! Torture for kids. My child had phobia n cried so bad. They sell those books to show don't know what. MOE Primary school spelling programs are so much better, my child was happy. He said he doesn't want to go back Acekidz..
Little Seeds Preschool (TSA - Tampines)
My child has been in the school for 6 years. The principal and teachers are very caring and patient with the kids, and believes in the potential and wellbeing of every child. A great environment for learning and nurturing! The lessons planned have fun variety and is a good mix of learning through play and academic learning. The key values taught in school sets a good foundation for my child to perservere and problem solve through life!
The principal and teachers are very friendly and approachable. My girl likes to go to school, play with her friends and enjoy attending the enrichment classes.
Great spacious centre for our young ones. I was really impressed with their infant area. The previous reviews were actually about an older centre under a different management. The new management is actually very open to parents' feedback and truly cares for their students. Also, the teachers and staffs were professional and friendly. My child enjoys going to school and always comes home with a smile on his face. He likes his teachers a lot and always compliments the food served as well.
Little Seeds Preschool (St Hilda's Church)
Our child enjoys going to school and big part of it was because of little Seeds. The teachers are a big part of why her transition to school wasnt as difficult as we were expecting. We sent her to a holiday programme at another school and it made her hate school! So much so that our kid would wake at 6am to tell us that she doesn't want to go to school. When she resumed back at Little Seeds she took less than a few days to acclimatize to going back to school, she's all smiles in anticipation to going to school now :)
Little Seeds Preschool (St. Andrew's)
I thank God for Little Seeds Preschool. It was God’s miracle that my kids get to enrol into LSP. Their old school was full after returning from a short stay in overseas. Any their blessed learning begins. I was delighted when I overheard them saying prayer before their sleep, saying grace before meals and singing Gospel songs on their accord. They learnt to appreciate and grateful in their young minds. Thank you LSP.
As a parent, I really appreciate the preschool’s thematic curriculum—it keeps my child engaged and excited to learn. The teachers are warm, friendly, and always responsive, which gives me peace of mind knowing my child is in good hands. While there aren’t any extra enrichment classes, the school makes up for it with fun termly excursions that give the kids hands-on learning experiences beyond the classroom.
Little Seeds Preschool (Kiddy Ark)
I feel that Little seeds preschool is clean and neat and all the teachers is kinds and helpful will recommend friends if they want to join ?
ENRICHING CURRICULUM and Caring STAFFS. There's also interesting enrichment classes offered in the centre.
Little Seeds Preschool (St. John's - St. Margaret's)
I had transferred my child from another preschool due to the longer commute, and we have never been happier with this decision. Within the first month, I saw how my child had gained independence and confidence in doing things for himself. Almost 2 years down the road, and I am still extremely satisfied with how the school manages gaps for improvement - be it staff shortage which happens everywhere as we know or providing an improved curriculum. There's a strong sense of community here and while we are not a Christian family, we have always felt comfortable to request having our child sit out of some religious based activities. This inclusiveness and respect they have for everyone is a big draw for me. It filters down to how the teachers and staff are outstanding examples for the children. I have not encountered a single teacher who didn't seem fully qualified. We can also see how wholeheartedly they are raising the children alongside us parents. Another unique factor has got to be the joined activities between the nursing home and the school. Even without the activities,simply having the children share that same space with the elderly has countless benefits. My child looks forward to school everyday and goes in not just willingly but full of joy!
Great environment for kids. Teachers are patience yet firm when required. Exactly what young kids needed. You know it’s good when teacher turnover rate is low. 100/10 recommendation!
Little Seeds Preschool (TSA - Ang Mo Kio)
I put both of my children in Little Seeds AMK as I am confident with the school teachers and the school curriculum. I like the way the school conduct lessons, they allow kids to learn through exploration, this is important since children at the age of 2-6 years learn fastest through hands on activities. I would also like to say a BIG thank you to all the teachers in LSP AMK for all the support in educating the next generation!
MY FIRST SKOOL @ 50 SENGKANG WEST WAY (SWC)
My wife requested for internal school transfer without my consent, i did not approve this school transfer and yet, the school went ahead to approve my wife’s request. Does that means father does not have a voice when comes to child education?! Calling the school and they said they cannot cancel the request as the application is been processed. What rubbish!
Teaching staff and facilities are excellent as they recently handed over to Star Learners. However, Star Learners has proved to be poor and slow in communication with parents except when it's time to pay school fees.
Emerge Arts & Media Academy @ Raffles
Went for a trial class with my daughter and it went well. Was about to sign up for a full class package but then I talked to some parents and heard some things that made me worry. Apparently, sometimes teachers get switched last minute and have to teach styles they don’t really know? Sounds like no proper backup plan, they just get anyone to cover even if not trained. Wonder if they really care about the kids learning or just trying to fill slots. As a parent paying good money, I want the best for my girl. The kids seem to enjoy the classes but parents please check properly before signing up.
Very bad experience with the owners of this tuition centre. My kid do not feel the enthusiasm from the the owner who is a teacher herself. Lessons are conducted half-heartedly. Also, the other teachers (employees) seem pretty low morale. I dont think it is a good environment for the students

Only join if your child is very good in English. If not your child will not be able to keep up with the fast pace and difficult curriculum and fail every test.
First Kick Academy @ Punggol Secondary School
Super Lousy, I’m really disappointed with the football club like First Kick academy, under 12 excellence team punggol. Opportunities were not given equally and bias (not sure if it is base on race) and unfair treatment was shown in this club. Despite every family paid the same amount of fees for the competition, my son was not given much time to play on the field, I can only understand that if my son is damm lousy and cannot even play properly on the field hence chance was not given to him, HOWEVER, this is not the case! Those kids who cannot performance that well gets to play most of the time whilst my son has to sit throughout the competition game timing, the max gets to play 20min at some competition date. If that is the case, should I, as parent just pay the amount of fees based on the time given for him to play, say like $5-10 only? We paid the whole fees every session to let him sit under the sun and feel disappointed on every occasion. I did not accuse them with this conclusion that unfair treatment was seen in this team, is not just my personal opinion or because I wanted to care only for my son. In fact, most parents who were present on the competition game also commented why my son was not given a chance when he can performance better than some other child in the team. No offend to the members in the team, however it believes every child should at least have quite an equal amount of play time in the competition field. Some kids get to play throughout the whole 1 and half hour game but the coach can’t even give time for my son to perform or play? It seems really unjustified. It did not come from me solely as a mother point of view but those other parents who are involved in the first kick academy have eyes to judge as well and feels the same way as me, they also commented opportunities was not given to my kid despite that he can do well on field. If others can see that, why a professional coach can’t see this point. It will then come across to me as unprofessional as they judge or give chance to those kids the coach like, and no hope for those kids that coach don’t like and not given a chance based on skill. Sound unethical if this is really true. Really damm disappointed with the coach despite us as parent sound out nicely our concern to the coach in text message, just and not getting a single response from him, it shown clearly on the level of concern and well-being given to any members in their first kick team. They are not even concern on how the disappointment could affect a child well-being. On several occasion, my son cried because of the disappointment for unable to play, and the non-concern attitude from the coaches. It seems contradicted from their motto of inspire a passion for the game while shaping confident, well-rounded players. I notice more damage to a young child that to help in nurturing them. We are risking our child mental health by entrusting our child with First Kick academy!
Kent Ridge Education @ Ang Mo Kio
Thank you, Mr. Chua for his clear and precise explanations . He has helped Kayden Lam, my grandson improved his subject tremendously.
Cristofori Music School @ Hillion Mall
Besides it's good location, I like the customer service here, friendly, approachable and well follow-up
Please be careful of Kwang, a man from Malaysia. I knew about this tuition centre through agency, saying they were looking for teacher to teach at their centre. Went for interview and realised i was being lowball. Message him and told him that i will pass the opportunity, he threatened me by saying if i dont work for them, will sue me. Please stay away from this man. To the parent’s out there, please find other tuition centre instead.
came to this tuition for my daughter because of the 5 stars reviews, found out they are all fake reviews!!
Working at Newcastle Education Center has been a frustrating experience. The principal, Kwang, seems to care more about profits than the well-being of students or staff. If you're feeling unwell, good luck getting a day off. They expect you to show up, claiming they're "short-staffed," and refuse to hire more help because they see it as a waste of money. When you mention wanting to quit, things get even worse. They’ll pile on extra work to make you miserable, and if you decide to leave, they start calculating a hefty penalty fee—usually not less than SGD 9,000. It feels like a threat hanging over your head. If you do get sick, don’t expect any compassion. You need to provide a medical certificate from a Polyclinic by 11 AM. That means dragging yourself out of bed, waiting in line for hours just to get a simple checkup, when you could easily go to a nearby clinic. It’s all just added stress when you really need to rest. Overall, it’s a tough place to work, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for a supportive environment. And remind. When you see a review from “management” saying that the bad comments are slander and claim that those comments are from bad teachers that have left the center. They try to salvage such situations. Think. Even if there are a lot of bad comments, why would there be less good ones but bad ones only? A company review with only 1 star ratings is just too pathetic.
As a parent, I've had a really good experience with Math Note Tuition Centre. The small class sizes mean my child gets the attention they need, and the tutors are really patient and helpful. I've noticed a big improvement in my daughter's understanding of math and their confidence in tackling problems. The environment is calm and focused, which has really helped with concentration. I’m really happy with the progress, and I will definitely recommend Math Note Tuition.

I am so grateful to the teachers at Fun Learners' School Tampines, especially Ms. Yvonne, Ms. Jermin, and Ms. Iza, who have been fantastic in guiding my girl in her studies, particularly in English, Math, and Science. Their teaching approach has been incredibly effective, and I've seen noticeable improvements in her understanding and confidence. The facilities at the Tampines branch are new, well-maintained, and very engaging for the students. My girl is particularly fond of the TV in the classroom and keeps asking for one at home!

Fun Learners School @ Tampines Junction
Sharing my experience about the school. My daughter absolutely dislike math and was making alot of mistakes in her WA paper. Not wanting to make her dislike the subject even more, I was trying to look for a tuition centre that will make her like the subject and also improve her understanding. I'm happy to say I found the correct tuition centre. Ms Iza was able to make the lesson lively to keep her interested. She also explained clearly for my daughter to understand the topic. Recently, my daughter even scored full marks for her Math WA!
