Huang Paik Ling first enrolled her three children into a Chinese national school but later decided to move them to an international school instead.
She says, “My children struggled with the medium of teaching as we do not speak the language at home. I also felt the curriculum had a one size fit all approach.”
“The students are taught that there is only one way of problem solving, and that is the teacher’s way. Classes often have up to 45 kids, hence, teachers do not have the time to give personalised attention.”
“As a result, the ones given attention are the ones who excel and ironically, the ones who need more help are neglected.”
The school her children currently attend follow a more modernised method of teaching, where there is a heavy emphasis on values and character building.
“Quality academics is a given hence this is definitely a plus point. Teachers are genuinely caring and don’t mind staying back after school on their own time to coach the weaker students.”

Provided you can pay for it, anything goes.
3 children at what? MYR 20k min? That's MYR60k after tax.
Guess there are lots of cronies still, in Malaysia
Must admit that the Chinese schools are like that. One way street. No thinking allowed!
