Frequently asked questions
Clear answers for parents
Does DeepThink follow the same syllabus my child is on at Pei Tong 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 Pei Tong 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
Pei Tong Primary School is a government co-educational primary school situated at 15 Clementi Avenue 5, Singapore 129857. The school traces its roots to Pei Tong Public School, a village school established near Clementi Road in the aftermath of World War II. It was formally registered in 1948 and initially run by Chinese community leaders. In 1981, it transitioned to a government school at its present campus and adopted its current name.
The school operates on a single-session schedule and is guided by the vision of developing every child into a passionate learner, a resilient individual, and a gracious citizen. Its mission centres on nurturing engaged learners who are holistically developed, future-ready, and grounded in values within a supportive environment. The school's six core values — Care, Respect, Integrity, Responsibility, Resilience, and Excellence — underpin its approach to education and character formation.
Admission Process
Enrolment at Pei Tong Primary School follows the Ministry of Education's annual Primary 1 Registration Exercise, which is conducted online across several phases. Phase 1 is reserved for children who have a sibling already attending the school. Subsequent phases — Phase 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2C Supplementary — cater to applicants with alumni connections, parent volunteers, community affiliations, or no prior link to the school.
During Phase 2C and 2C Supplementary, priority is determined by citizenship status (Singapore Citizens before Permanent Residents) and home-to-school distance, categorised as within 1 km, between 1 and 2 km, or beyond 2 km. When the number of applicants exceeds available places in any phase, a computerised balloting process managed by MOE is used to allocate spots. Registration typically takes place between July and August each year, and parents should consult the MOE Primary 1 Registration portal for the latest dates and requirements.
As a government primary school, Pei Tong follows MOE's standardised fee structure. Singapore Citizens pay $5 per month, Permanent Residents pay $440, international students from ASEAN countries pay $840, and non-ASEAN international students pay $1,600 (all figures inclusive of GST where applicable). Additional miscellaneous fees may apply separately.
Curriculum and Academic Programme
Pei Tong Primary School delivers the national curriculum set by MOE, covering English Language, Mathematics, Science, Mother Tongue Languages (Chinese, Malay, and Tamil), Art, Music, Physical Education, and Social Studies. Foundation and standard-level options are available for Mother Tongue Languages to accommodate different proficiency levels, and higher-level tracks exist for students with stronger aptitude.
The school's Applied Learning Programme, known as PLANET, focuses on STEM education with a sustainability theme. Through hands-on projects and inquiry-based activities, students explore environmental and scientific concepts in practical contexts. The Learning for Life Programme, branded I'MADD, develops students' creative expression through music and the performing arts, giving every child opportunities to participate in artistic endeavours across their primary school years.
For families seeking additional support in Mathematics, DeepThink is a math tuition centre that offers structured programmes aligned to the primary school syllabus, which some Pei Tong families have found helpful for reinforcing classroom learning.
These signature programmes complement the core academic subjects and are designed to build foundational knowledge, curiosity, and confidence ahead of the PSLE examinations.
Facilities and Co-Curricular Activities
Co-Curricular Activities at Pei Tong Primary School span a broad range of interests and are open to students across all levels. The sports programme includes Badminton, Basketball, and Table Tennis. Uniformed groups such as the Boys' Brigade, Girls' Brigade, and Girl Guides develop discipline, teamwork, and a sense of service. In the performing arts and clubs category, students can join the Choir, Modern Dance, Art and Crafts, English Drama and Debating, Environmental Science, or Infocomm Technology.
The school operates a modular CCA structure, which allows students from Primary 1 through Primary 6 to participate and explore different activities over the course of their schooling. This approach supports the development of a range of skills, interests, and social connections beyond the classroom.
Student Life and School Culture
Daily life at Pei Tong Primary School is shaped by the school's emphasis on holistic growth and character development. The PLANET and I'MADD programmes extend learning beyond textbooks, while values education is woven into lessons and school routines.
The school provides support for students with mild special educational needs through dedicated Special Educational Needs Officers and the P1 TRANSIT programme, which assists children with social and behavioural adjustment during their first year. Families of children with moderate to severe needs may wish to explore options at specialised SPED schools.
Pei Tong fosters a caring school culture where students are encouraged to demonstrate the school's core values in their interactions with peers and teachers. The combination of academic rigour, creative programmes, and character education aims to prepare students not only for the PSLE but for their continued growth as learners and individuals.
