School Reviews

Read Google and parent-contributed reviews for Alexandra Primary School, or share your own experience below.

"there has been a consistent pattern of replacing subject teachers for both Primary 5 and Primary 6 classes. And assigned a Physical Education (PE) teacher to teach English to the Primary 6 students. Despite parents expressing concerns to the school principal, no effective response has been received. Furthermore, this teacher has been threatening a student in class, frequently telling child , “Ask your dad to report me to the MOE.”"

"It’s a good school. But the new principal is not very good. The facilities are new and are always improving. There are some teachers that are a bit unreasonable about stuff. There’s this Chinese teacher (Ms Chen) that encourages her students a lot and have been very successful in getting students good grades."

"As a student there, I really like it but it's so sad because a lot of my favorite teachers are leaving, even my 2 form teachers. But I assure that this school, is best choice for primary school!"

"just recently graduated from that place, most of the teachers there are nice and friendly (especially after psle) and i honestly dont like how mdm teo(principal) talks a lot everyday. but im definitely gonna miss my teachers, friends and schoolmates/classmates. this school is great and my (potential) juniors, if you are going to a primary school soon, go to this school. i assure you that this school has very less toxic people unlike the other primary schools."
