School Reviews

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

"I live by this school and every Friday, at 7:45am, they will be letting on this relentless drumming and they’ve been doing this for years. I’d emailed them and personally went down to this school to ask them to stop doing that because I have an ageing parent who lives with me that gets woken up by them promptly by the tenth drumbeat and they stopped for a short period. Why? Did they think my ageing parent got younger and less affected by it over time??? But they’ve been at it again for years. And it will last an hour. Thoughtless, inconsiderate and selfish school management."

"I'm actually a student at bpps. The toilet at level 4 near the p5 classes is really smelly. I rarely go to the toilet over there during mtl lessons(Malay). I also don't like that toilet is bc of the light sensor. Once I was taking a shit in the toilet for awhile, then suddenly the lights went out.i quickly wipe my butt with the wet tissue and went out(a very traumatic experience for me💀)"

"Decent primary school in Bukit Panjang area. Would love to see them stronger in non-curriculum areas such as STEM and CCA's."
