This is something to worry about. Poor foundation leads to unstable building.
Hah, only Std 2. I think all school is the same at this age. Teach him yourself. This would be the most important task as a temporary measure.
This level it is still about learning to read and simple addition. In the case of subtraction, they dont even subtract numbers that need to borrow one. I am not sure what I just said apply to Beacon House. I am referring to the SRJK ( C ) syllabus. Reading here involves to 3 languages (BM, Eng, Chinese). So reading is a big deal for this level in SRJK ( C ). Anyway, if you agree with me on learning to read and simple arithmetic are the starting founding to build upon, then allocate 1 hour a day and teach him yourself. It does not matter what school he goes to. If you guide them through their primary school, they will have good foundation for secondary and should be able to find their own way.

what is wrong with people these days. Little bit only blame the school. Beacon House, many said is a good school also got problem. Haaaizz! Blame yourself lah. What are they doing at your school (the home. teacher = you and hubby)? Left me guess, play PS3 and learn how to manja and be a cry baby.
They are learning multiplication and division now...i reached home at 7:30pm but also his bed time because he has to wake up 6am every morning. I know his bed time is a bit early but he will be very very tired if not enough sleep...

although i'm not be able to sepnd time with him every day but he has tuition every day for 1 hour. If he very depends on the tuition teacher or me, means he learn nothing from school, right? i'm not willing to pay if he is not really learn from the school, that y thinking of alternative.
At home, they are not allow to play PS3 nor any other games during weekday. only 1 hour in Sat. i will not manja them as well because this will not help them
