Parent can allow your child to take a shower too (optional). We value the safety of your child dearly. We will be collaborating with the school to ensure that no student wearing the centre T-shirt is allowed to leave the school premises without parents’ pre-authorisation arrangement. When we bring students to excursion in an external environment, it is important to ensure quick recognition for the safety of every child under our care. At times, we may organize combined excursion which involves more than 500 students. Your child's safety is our major concern. It is also important for students to feel a sense of belonging when they are at the centre. In doing so, students will find it easier to adapt to the centre. During holidays, it is important for school security officers and school duty personnel to be able to identify Student Care students from other students.

Will you be providing assessment books in the Student Care?No. We are providing a holistic education for all students in the Student Care programme. We hope parents can understand that other than academic revision, your child will also need different activities to develop socio-emotionally and physically.

Studies have shown that if a student continues to study in an uninteresting and stressful environment, he/she will not fare well in examinations.
