I have shared before... when I went to the edusave award this year, I had seen plenty of "foreigner" kids in top schools like NYPS, MGS, RGPS etc...

These people are citizens like you and me.

If some people think chill la, every school is a "good school", new citizens are just going to take the spots for the real elite schools.

Moi give my objective view. What you see is the top of the top of a very very large population; and they are working very hard if not harder than chiu and moi.

Same goes to their children. In fair words, they deserve the places and awards which the system allows.

When moi was in amdk country, moi also laughed at amdk why they were lazy and their laziness gave moi the chance to do better by comparison

The system is fair. Given the rules, they just play the games

I’m Kiasu but purposely chose my kids’ pri sch without secondary sch affiliation.

the child needs to toughen up by p6 la.
No point provide safety net until JC.
Weird logic. If your kid is smart he can apply RI based on results. If he is stupid then just find a school nearby that he can meet cop. If he is borderline then the difference between a well behaved school and a paikia school could be just 1 or 2 points. If no affiliation then he might end up going to pai kia school. What you are arguing is like some one asking you if you can choose to be born rich or born middle class and you say middle class so that you can toughen up without safety net.

Then use affiliation - go to Acs not independent

but Pai Kia level of scores

What’s the difference

Primary school got downstream impact. Some schools got secondary affiliation and the affiliated secondary school got JC affiliation. So choosing the right primary school means don’t need to stress so much at psle and o levels. Your grandkids will also be phase 2a in the future. Only parents who missed the deadline or who didn’t do enough would self console say primary school not so important.
I won't bother with affliction.. My usual chat with colleagues who are parents. Saying most are not good. Even they are old boys...
The problems lies with the learning profile of students are too wide. Not so motivated ones are not filter by the system.

Certain better schools do they bother about it? No cos they no have lack of students with good learning profiles.
