Hi Fellow-parents and Curiousone,
I don't know if this helps.
But I checked on this school and found the below testimony on their website.

They should be able to accept your child if you have obtained approval from the Ministry of Education (MOE). No harm calling this school to check it out. I am a Singaporean and will be enrolling my son (returning from Vietnam to Singapore to study and can't get into any govt schools).
Best of luck

My Daughter was diagnosed moderately severe dyslexics when she was in Primary 1, however early intervention helped her, and now at P5 she has improved a lot, able to read and write independently, even through traits of dyslexics still exist. What is more important than the academic improvement is that her self confident was boosted. I suppose with family support and school support, kids with special needs still be able to enjoy school.

I feel that Singapore government schools are not really trying their best to help... =(

Tech tools that help kids with dyslexia learn. Amazing how it opens up their learning opportunities. Pen and paper exams have been holding these kids back for far far too long.

Hi all, any recommendations for organisations/specialist tutors who can teach Chinese to teenagers with Dyslexia who are weak in Mandarin? I understand DAS runs Chinese programmes, but they only accept Primary school students. Child is in Secondary school but has Primary level Chinese. Help!

Happy chinese new year , i thought would return to the forum that gave me so much support . thank you KSP. Last year, 2018 my son took his N level (NA) exam . miraculously he managed to just scrap through to qualify for secondary 5 but he has decided to go to poly instead. my husband and I were hoping he would give sec 5 a shot but we want him to make his own decision. we pray that he will continue to cope in his studies.
My son was always always a very timid and suffered from poor confidence. he was very negative and gave up easily right from kindergarten . he dare not try anything.My husband and I were so frustrated. it pained us to see him like this. struggling and suffering, the school teachers even advised us to enroll him in a special school. we were really at a wits end. any way some years ago as were were surfing through one of the forums ( i can remember if its ksp or motherhood we came across a testimony from one of the mommies about their tutor. Mr PK. he really did a good job by not giving up and building up his confidence. he would always say" give it a try, nothing will happen" slowly my child grades improved. my child never reach the heights of academic excellence but at least he was scoring respectable marks. to cut the story short Mr PK prodded him along until he finally made it to sec 4 NA. it was a arduous journey and I thank Mr PK. so now i am trying to contact this kiasu mommy to thank her. i lost her email. I am not sure but I think her username or email is
[email protected] or
[email protected] or something like that. if you are out there reading this post pls email me at
[email protected] so I can catch up with you and thank you. i might try looking at the other forum or threads
Hi, can I have Mr PK number as I need a good tutor for my dyslexia daughter. You can send to my email add
