"Your students cause a nuisance outside of school. I was at 7/11 and your students kept screaming and were being loud and they kept running inside , they almost knocked over a stand + bumping into people without apologising. Even another student seemed very disturbed by them. Everyone in their seemed very annoyed by them. What are you guys even teaching them?? They should know better than to act like that In public especially when they are wearing their school uniform."

"I studied here for 6 years and I enjoyed it sincerely. Honestly, it is an amazing school! The teachers there are great and very nice! School events are also very fun! Great facilities too! But even after 6 years, I still don’t know about some places in the school. Overall, amazing school for students nearby. However, as P6 student, you need to climb 6 levels to classroom. Wide range of CCAs but heard that Infocomm and Design and Innovation CCA getting merged. Canteen food is good too! (but I can’t say much cause I only buy from 2-3 stalls.) But canteen vendors nowadays here and there. All the teachers in the school are very polite and willing to listen to your problems as well. Some upper primary kids quite naughty though. Good discipline as well. I am going to secondary school in 2024 and will miss Westwood dearly. 10/10 would recommend this school for your kids."
