10 Questions Smart Parents Ask Before Choosing a Primary School

Choose a school not just for today, but for the future your child deserves.


1. How does the school approach early childhood learning?

Look for schools that use activity-based, experiential, and inquiry-driven methods rather than rote memorisation.

2. Are the teachers trained in child psychology and emotional intelligence?

A calm, understanding teacher is more valuable than a dozen fancy classrooms. Ask about teacher training in modern pedagogy.

3. Is the classroom environment emotionally and physically safe?

Safety goes beyond CCTV. Ensure the school promotes zero tolerance for bullying and emotional harm.

4. What’s the student-teacher ratio?

Smaller ratios allow for personalized attention and better emotional bonding.

5. Is there a balance between academics, arts, sports, and life skills?

A good school nurtures the whole child, not just the report card.

6. How involved are parents in the learning journey?

Regular, two-way communication and personal parent-teacher interactions build trust and partnership.

7. How is discipline managed?

Smart parents ask: Does the school use punishment or positive guidance? Modern schools train staff in positive discipline and restorative practices.

8. What values and habits does the school promote daily?

Beyond curriculum, the best schools teach gratitude, responsibility, empathy, and respect as part of everyday learning.

9. What digital tools and resources are used—and how?

Tools like Matific, Words Worth, or iPads are great, but screen-time should be purposeful and age-appropriate.

10. What do current parents and alumni say about the school?

Real feedback gives you the clearest picture. Talk to existing parents or check online testimonials.
