I'm going to apply N1 for my kid. Yet since i would like my boy to study in intl school afterwards. Something need your help.
May i ask whether you guys put your kids to study N1 before going K1 in in ...

1. Many IS Kindergarten have Nursery Class.
2. If u are cat.2 and have no ESF silbling, the only way to go to ESF primary is starting K1 in ESF kindergarten.

thanks suzanlai! may i ask is ur kid now studying in one of the schools u mentioned? since i m thinking of pips too, quite near my home. any you or anyone can share any expereinces?

My little one has attended both PIPS parkview and Tutor time before, I would rate Pips over TT in terms of the sch environment, teacher professionalism and sch curriculum. But I heard that the one in kln station is not as good as the one in parkview. I heard many good comments from parents who have their children studied in anfield playground.

thanks oooray! but can u give suggest some IS Kindergarden tht hv N class?

I am not experienced enough to do any recommendations.
I visited Tutortime and Anfield years ago.
My children were in their Pre-K and K in Anfield.
I suggest you visit those you interest in one by one your yourself (if possible with your spouse) and you will have your best judgement.
Never rely on "hear and say".
Different parents have different criteria. Some prefer caring teachers, some prefer non-accented teacher, some prefer nice campus and some prefer budgeted tuition fee ......and some would like to take all.

Nursery is just your first step. Anyone of those recommended will be fine. I will suggest you choosing the one close to your home and you child will be happy with.

Choosing K1 is much more important.

Don't take your kid to Tutor Time.  They have no heart for kids, they do things like a show to make parent 'feel' that they are good, but they are not, everything is very lousy, from safety, security, management, facility, etc etc., and they are very money oriented... which many school are like that nowadays,... so it's ok to be 'money-oriented' and commercial... as long as the school provide what parents need/want.... BUT they don't.  That's the point!!  

I heard that Anfield is very good.  They do have the hearts for kids, which is the most important!  Facility is good, management is not bad too.
