Hear from parents about their experiences with New Town Primary School.

"I strongly recommend parents not to sent their kids to this school as students are noisy and naughty. My daughter is taking PSLE this year but yet her class is still noisy during class time. Her teachers have turned a deaf ear to noisy/talkative students. I spoke to teacher during parent teacher meeting before march term break regarding it but nothing has been done for the past one week. My daughter said that the school has many intellectually disabled students as well who go crazy from time to time"

"shlawgggg this school is good if you want to see poop on the floor in toilets. The uniform for PE makes me sweat alot like....WHAT??? Also the teachers here are fun to joke with sometimes . But asides from all the jokes, I enjoyed it here only because of the friends I've made. And nothing in the school has AIRCON except for the computer lab. Overall: 0.5/10"

"Great school at a great location beside commonwealth MRT. Conducive environment to study with teachers and students. Do drop off your students at the carpark opposite the school to prevent the road from jamming."

"this school is a very very veryyyy good school. There are many many kind teachers there and they are very supportive. They also provide a lot of hands down activities. The school there is a wonderful place. The toilet, classrooms etc are very clean. The environment there is good. They provide good ccas and give opportunities where your child develop strengths and talent. The uniform is not too hot. The hall has air corn and provides chairs for them to sit so they wouldn't come home with sore butocks and legs. You can also can get the amazing friends there like I did. So your child won't have to worry about being alone! The school has a special way of teaching to students. If you are finding a school for your child, I recommend you to come to this school! Thank you for taking the time to read my message! :D shout-out to Alia and Rainie 💞❤️‍🩹🤭😙"

"Normally I do not review but this school has forced me to do so due to their rowdy and noisy students. The students make so much noise outside at playground outside their school. 2 boys wearing new town primary shirt almost knock down my grandma while riding bicycles at high speed near the school. When she scolded them, they scold her back for being slow. I have already email moe on it. My friend daughter who studies there mentioned that students in the school often fight and scream in classes but no strong actions are taken. Another useless neighborhood school haizz."

"It is one of the worst primary school in the central area. Think twice before sending your children to the school as case of bullying and fighting is common in this school. No firm action like caning will be taken against students. Your kid maybe the next one becoming a punching bag."

"My son studies in the school and he always says that the class is super noisy. I have told the form teacher on it last month but nothing has been done. Seating arrangement of students have been changed but it is still noisy. Students also get into physical fight during recess time but no caning is done for these students but at most suspension according to him. I need to get a personal tutor just for him so he learn up fast for his PSLE. Hope the school principle or discipline master start doing their job seriously."

"I did not know that the school had a google review page if not I would have informed before. The school is very bad for conducive studying environment. My son was bullied by another student and no hard action was taken against him. Instead the bully was advised by the teacher. He still bullies my son at school from time to time. He also bullies other students when possible. I know that my son is not bright and saint but he needs to do well this year so he can go to secondary school but seems like it is not possible. I am getting tuition in order for him to cope and understand better which does not come cheap as it is $50 per hour. Kindly think twice before sending your child to this primary school as it will be hard to change school later."

"Think twice before sending your kids to this school. The teachers are not good and nonchalant towards disciplining students. My kid was bullied by another student and the boy got away with verbal warning according to my kid. He started bullying again and my kid does not want to go school now. I complained about it to the form teacher but he said he will look into it nonchalantly and act on it. Plan to change his school next year after final examinations."

"My daughter is taking PSLE this year but she complains that her classes are always noisy and disruptive. She may not be smart as she is taking foundation subjects only but she needs to pass them into order to go to proper secondary school. I told the teachers about it during the parent teacher meeting session in March and my girl is still saying that until TODAY that the her class is noisy and disruptive when teacher teach. It gets worse when a relief teacher come as the whole class will go berserk. Hope putting here will make the school committee know about what is happening in class."
