1) SRJK Yuk Chai (my son studied there)
2) SRJK Puai Chai (my nephew studied there)
3) SRJK Sungai Way (no idea)

1) How is the school facilities (any field , library, modern or old, etc) ?
YC - small 200m field, but many basketball hoops different heights - YC <12 yrs old team is national champion many years - the players then go to BU3 to continue their basketball career under the Chai brothers who are national coaches.
Library is well stocked, new building just sprouted up < 5 years ago through donations.
Takwondo club under Master Kevin Woon produces national fighters e.g. Ryan Chong. Chief Coach Wong Chin Bean the only medalist (silver) ever in World Taekwondo Competition by Malaysia.
Recently table tennis team also produced 4 Selangor state players, one which is now national player. Gymnastics - appeared in the Star recently cannot remember.
PC - not too sure.

2) How is the quality of the education provided ?
Excellent but PC is extremely academic. Not suitable for weaker students who get pressurized by teachers who are pressurized by Headmaster. YC more balance with sports


3) Are there lots of disciplinary issues with the students in the school ?
Very low. Teachers are authorized by PTA to carry rotan. Different from SMK schools. So if you have hyperactive kid, need to keep close relationship with Headmaster and class teacher. PC is very strict e.g. long hair not permitted for girls.

4) How is the congestion during peak hours ? (P.S. I notice the road for Sungai Way school is pretty small and lots of commercial area around it)
Both YC and PC are extremely congested. If you sending yrself, really need to have high patience unless you ask bas sekolah to fetch


5) All in all, if you consider all factors, which school would you choose and why ?
Prefer YC to PC as it is less stressful for the kid + more sports.

hey TS, i didn't attend Chinese primary school, hence im a banana. But just wanna point out are u sure you want your kid to go to chinese school? i have a friend and she is 10 and stressing like crazy to do hwk, i think it's terrible for young kids. She wakes up in the middle of the night remembering to do homework.. Because of the new english science and maths (not new la lol) then the chinese school still wants to do it in chinese, they do double.. Maths and science in english and chinese.. And unless you are a good student, you will struggle in BM when you go into high school.. Just my two cents smile.gif

Eh friend,

since you didn't attend Chinese primary, why generalize ALL chinese schools very stressful for kids ? Don't you read the earlier postings above ?
