How would you compare these 2 primary schools?
1/  English
2/  Chinese
3/  Maths
4/  Discipline
5/  Allocation to secondary schools

Elizatyy,
I guess it may be you kid is being accepted by both. This is the case for my son. But fyi - I chose TSL.
From the BK, listening other moms comments, attending the P.1 introduction etc., I think both schools are very good school and I trust that the kids will be grown up happily in both schools.
I think I can compare these 2 schools in the following aspects:
Language:
TSL is an English school and also it offers the 3rd language - French or Japanese. While PK is the strength of Chinese as it mentions "immersion for both English and Mandarin". So depending on which language you want the kid to excel in.
Hardware - PK may be better.
Future Secondary School: PK has the sec. while TSL doesn't have. But from theis year P.6 result, it's not too bad. While, I heard from my colleague that his son is studying PK, her comment is that PK Pri. is good but comparatively Sec. is not so good. So you need to decide.
Lastly, the location, I highly prefer to be closed to where you live. For my case, I live in Olympic City and so I don't need to think over and chose TSL. I think it's really waste the kid time to travel too much.
Hope this helps.

Heidikl, thanks a lot. I know there are a lot of TSL pupils go to English secondary schools. But it also seems that PLK schools are usually traditional teaching schools, e.g. a lot of homework, pressures...etc.

Elizatyy,
Could I understand your situation and what you're looking for??

When I looked over the parents comments in this column, they expressed that their kids are studying happily in TSL.
I think the pressure is given by us sometimes, not from the school...

Elizatyy,

PKC is a chinese school with about 30% english, 70% chinese in lower primary grade. But TSL is an english primary school, it is completely different case. It really depends on what you want. I think both of schools are good.

I live nearby PKC but I gave it up. Because my daughter likes english primary school. She likes TSL very much.
