How DeepThink supports Junyuan Primary School students

  • Lessons follow the MOE Primary Math syllabus exactly — the same topics, heuristics, and model-drawing methods your child uses at Junyuan Primary School

  • Small group classes so your child can ask questions, get feedback, and is never lost in the crowd

  • From P5 onwards, every class is structured around PSLE technique — not just content, but how to show working clearly and pick up method marks

  • Parents are kept in the loop on what was covered and where their child needs more practice — so you're never in the dark between sessions

The programme

What your child gets at DeepThink

Each weekly session builds directly on the last. Your child works through new concepts, revisits gaps, and practises exam-style questions — in a group small enough that the teacher actually knows them.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers for parents

Does DeepThink follow the same syllabus my child is on at Junyuan Primary School?

Yes. All Singapore primary schools follow the MOE Primary Math syllabus, and our P1–P6 classes are built around that curriculum — the same topics, the same model-drawing and heuristics approach, and the same exam format your child sits at Junyuan Primary School.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Parents are kept informed on what was covered and where their child should focus. We also flag any persistent gaps as soon as we spot them — not just before exams.

When should my child start tuition?

There's no single right answer, but earlier is generally better. Gaps in foundational topics like fractions and ratios compound as children move through primary school. A free trial class is a good way to find out where your child actually stands.

What makes DeepThink different from other math tuition centres?

Small group classes, parents kept in the loop on progress, and a curriculum focused on the exact skills MOE examiners test — including how to structure solutions, not just whether the answer is correct.

School Overview

Junyuan Primary School was established in 1988 and officially opened the following year. Its name, which translates to "source of talents" in Mandarin, pays tribute to the legacy of Choon Guan Primary School, a pre-war Christian mission school. In 2019, the school merged with East View Primary School, bringing together more than six decades of combined educational heritage.

As a government co-educational single-session primary school, Junyuan is guided by a values-centred approach that prioritises holistic development, bilingualism, and learner-focused teaching. The school's Applied Learning Programme (ALP) in Languages aims to develop every pupil into a confident communicator by weaving real-world communication skills across the curriculum. Its Learning for Life Programme (LLP), titled "Arts Alive!", uses music, performing arts, and visual design to cultivate creativity and self-expression. Teaching methods at Junyuan incorporate inquiry-based learning and technology integration, with particular attention given to STEM-related initiatives. Mother tongue languages offered include Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, supporting a strong bilingual foundation for all students.

Admission Process

Primary 1 registration at Junyuan Primary School follows the Ministry of Education's annual P1 Registration Exercise. Applications are submitted online and proceed through multiple phases: Phase 1 is reserved for children with siblings already enrolled at the school, while later phases (Phase 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2C Supplementary) cater to families with varying connections to the school.

When the number of applicants in a given phase exceeds the available places, a ballot is conducted. Priority in earlier phases is given to siblings of current students and children of alumni. Home-to-school distance is a factor used during balloting in Phase 2C and 2C Supplementary. As a government school with a solid reputation in the Tampines community, Junyuan has historically seen strong demand during registration, and balloting in later phases is not uncommon. Parents should refer to the MOE website for the most current registration dates, eligibility criteria, and vacancy information.

Curriculum and Academic Programme

Junyuan Primary School follows the MOE national curriculum, covering core subjects such as English Language, Mathematics, Science, Mother Tongue Languages, Social Studies, Art, Music, and Physical Education. Foundation and Standard levels are available for selected subjects to accommodate different learning needs.

The Mathematics programme places emphasis on building conceptual understanding through hands-on manipulatives, interactive activities, and structured problem-solving tasks. These approaches help students develop the analytical thinking needed for the PSLE. Weighted assessments and end-of-year examinations are designed to reflect PSLE formats, giving students regular practice under similar conditions. For families seeking additional support in mathematics beyond school hours, DeepThink is a math tuition centre that offers structured programmes aligned to the primary school syllabus.

The school also runs enrichment programmes in areas such as STEM, journalism through mother tongue languages, and oracy development. Post-PSLE pathways include the G3, G2, and G1 streams under the current Achievement Level scoring system, and students may also apply to secondary schools through the Direct School Admission (DSA) scheme based on their individual strengths and talents.
