Sometimes, it also depend on the interest of the child. I have a nephew who could not fit into the academic curriculum in Singapore at all. He went from secondary five to ITE to polytechnic and finally made it to NUS. Even though he took the longer route, but he still made it. His parents never gave up on him, but they did not stress him out with tuition or enrichment class but kept on encouraging him.

It is ok. As long as you are successful in life now, that will be fine. Good academic grades does not guarantee fortune or successful.

With tuition so common among Singaporeans, why is it the locals never question about the quality of the teachers at their kids' schools? Why do parents depend so much on out of school teachers to teeach their kids to score better at shool exams? If extra lessons are necessary for school children in Singapore, how about tuition lessons in manners and social etiquette?

Good education system? Then why bother with tuition?

Cheers!

If you sent your kids to tuition you are shifting the teaching responsibilities to strangers

How can you say you spend time on your kids?

You are using money to buy your own time.

Of course you can remain a bachelor and dun get married and have kids.

And you can die alone when you are old aged.

Then next day some samsters will post the seeking for next of kins threads on this forum.

Nobody else really cares if your bank account is loaded.

Its not that teachers can't teach. Its competition. I think you must score 90% to get A1 in O levels now because of the higher level of competition.
