Keen Mind K1 (pm class):Worries & Disappointments

My sons has just attended 2 days in KM as pm class students. May I share some observations (worries too!) with u all:

1) The classroom of K1 is just too crowdy! I just wonder what will happen if one student got sick in this tiny room. So stuffy and uncomfortable for 22 kids and 3 staff plus some parents "packed inside.

2) The confusion before and after school really worries me! On the first day, my son was left unattended in the reception area ; but on the second day, even the school bus left my baby son at school without any notice & with no teachers attention and  care. my poor BB had to wait for 1.5 hrs before he finally took a taxi home.

3) The teachers/ assistants cannot show any teamwork. They looked busy around but not appeared organised to have performed their duties/ roles in an appropriate way.

I am now seriously considering to change another school. Do you know any more spacious and caring school with good academic background still admits K1 students?

puzzledmama,
I am sorry to hear that.  Did the school give you any explanation about leaving your son at school for 1.5hrs?  Where did he stay during that period?

Re: Keen Mind K1 (pm class):Worries & Disappointments

My daughter is also studying in Keen Mind class N1. My mother brings her to school these days. According to her description, the classroom is really small and crowded, although N1 has been splited into 3 classes this week. I can't imagine if all the N1 kids gather together in one classroom next week. And my mother said that when the lesson finished at 12:00p.m., all the kids, including K1-K3 kids, are waiting in one classroom at the same time. It's extremely crowded and sometimes is in disorder.
Furthermore, her class teacher is a very young girl who does not show much her caring about kids. It makes my mother a bit disappointed and she asked me why I chose this kinder for her grand-daughter.    :cry:
I'm also considering to bring my daughter to another kinder next month. However, if anyone wants to withdraw, one-month notice should be given in advance. And just 2 days ago, I paid the tuition fee  of phonic class. It costs me $1600.
One more thing, i.e. when my mother and my daughter left the school, the air outside was full of carbon dioxide. 7 to 8 school buses were waiting outside without switching off the engine. It's extremely harmful to the kids. I wonder why the school does not notice about that.
Actually I want to go back to Pui Yan Kinder for my daughter studied there since 5/05. She enjoyed the lessons there very much. The teachers and janitors loved her so much, as well as the mothers of her classmates. The principal told me if I went back to her kinder, my daughter can study in K1     .
This really attracts me.

Nataliemama,

I shared similar experience as you.
Actually, the nursery my kid attended before was not bad (more spacious, better student management etc). I just wanna let my kid learn more English and have stronger academic curriculum. No, in view of the very crowdy area, I am now feeling a bit regret over my choice of Keenmind. Both my son's grandma (she was present on 5/9/05 which was the 1st school day for the kid) and his papa also queried about whether we have got the right move.

But KM is quite customer-oriented--2 staff called me to apologise in a sincere manner.

Apart from apology, did they make any promise, or take any action to solve the problems?
