"i miss primary school life since i graduated last year, some teachers are kind and will help u if u need any help. Most of the teachers very chill, except for some of the relief teachers. Ms sim made my weakest subject into strongest subject, so a great mention to herr! I would really recommend this school!"

"The teachers there were quite friendly (most of them). There were some exceptions tho,some teacher were more strict. There is this teacher (I won't name them) who always scolds the class for the most minor things. For example when she is teaching, if just one student talk, whole class gets scolded,and sometimes even stayback"

"this school is good but very bias , they prefer a certain cohort over the others , the teachers there are generally okay except for a few teachers , I graduated last year . However , this school should prepare the students for psle earlier , I felt that many students’ grades dropped in p6 (including mine ) as the first weighted assessment in primary 6 were harder than the ones we did in P5 . Other than that , the school is good , made many pleasant memories and friends there , wld recommend this school but there are some teachers that are very bad in teaching ."

"This school was just chaos, I remember when I was primary 6 my English teacher got so mad because we were so noisy, she didn't shut us up but threw a chair. It almost hit my friend. There was a lot going on, one of classmate feel in the fishpond, someone threw a phone off the 3rd floor ect. Either way this is a clown school and I won't be coming back to visit"

"i love this school. this school is filled with a lot of teachers that are caring n loving. If they scold you sometimes, its for the best. Im really grateful for my foundation maths tcher. He helped me alot. Not just in maths, but also life teachings. At p6, from foundation maths, i passed my psle and did so well till i ended up in g3 math. Basically g3 for all my sec schools subjects :D. If i could rewind the time, i would. I met a lot of wonderful people throughout my 6 years in pei tong. Yes, i've made many bittersweet memories but i still love and cherish the school from the bottom of my heart. Dont get everything wrong. When the teachers scold you, its for your own good and its because of your own mistakes. No teachers would randomly wake up on a random day and say "today im going to scold ______!". Nope they wont. Just be in your best behavior and focus on your studies. Trust me, your future will be bright. They will help you with every single things you need that they possibly can :). So dont be shy to reach out to the teachers or counselors anytime you need it! Theyre really fun and cool to be with :). When it comes to children's day or any other celebrations, they make it really livelyhood!. You will find yourself smile naturally along the 6 years. Therefore, pei tong primary school is a good school and helped me alot. I regret taking the teachers and my friends for granted. Now that im out of pei tong, a part of me is still lingering there and please cherish every single moment there before you leave the school :). signing out."
