Hear from parents about their experiences with Tanjong Katong Primary School.
"this school may be a neighbourhood school but the teachers here are very helpful and attend to me whenever i needed help. i have graduated from this school but those parents who are unsure of which primary school to enroll their kids in, i would suggest this school as it had been oversubscribed over the past few years"

"My daughter went to this primary school from 2016 to 2021 and it was amazing. The teachers were great and I used to be a parent volunteer. Special shoutout to Mrs Oon who used to teach English to the kids who needed extra help. Such a caring teacher and an amazing environment for children. The highlight was in Primary 2 when they had Pets Day and my daughter was tied for the 1st prize for cutest pet. Such good memories..."

"Amazing school, definitely would recommend enlisting your child here. As an alumni of the school(currently in Victoria School) , this school has nice teachers and they are incredibly helpful, especially during the PSLE period. Shoutout to Ms Ortega for being the best teacher I have ever met in my 6 years😎"
