Inside A Normal (Tech) School: More Than Just Grades | Inside Crest Secondary - Part 2/3

[@Studytoreachyourgoals]

I like how this school doesn’t make them feel like they are dumb and instead makes them see a different type of themselves.

[@lsy97]

"Because of dance I only remeber 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8." I burst out laughing at this, great sense of humour, deserve a A for this, Rayyan!

[@g0ldenkook]

Waacking is not easy eh, Rayyan slayed his solo! He is so talented and I hope he’ll be active in sg’s dance scene in future

[@lonelyandforgottenisthe]

I really hopes he sees the comments and knows how much we love him🥹🥹 He’s adorable and slayed throughout 🫶 Also the “I only know 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8” joke had me cackling!! I’m rooting for him so bad omgomg ~~ Edit: I also hope he ignores all the bigoted vitriol in the comments. His dedication to his craft and the joy it brings him brings me joy as well! And he so wonderful at it.

[@zobeone5159]

These teachers deserve higher pay. Keep up the good works.

[@inmyopinion2229]

These kids don't come straight to secondary school. They were from primary school. Primary school teachers had to deal with them first. Their character and behaviour has always been like that since Primary school.

[@steelwolf180]

Please do more documentary on it. It's pretty amazing in what they are doing. I'm a NT student as well and I'm really amazed there's such a school for us. It's really not where you start but where you end up in life. So good luck and don't worry about it now.

[@JLRitz]

Crest is doing a fantastic job. You can see the patience and understanding of the teachers. Agree with one of the teachers that there's a reason behind disruptive behaviour. Maybe Liang En has mild ADHD so a different behavioural approach is needed for him to understand?

[@NiffersFoapi]

MILD? thats crazy to say

[@John_Smith_86]

I am very happy that our government spends so much money on these students. Not just the infrastructure, but the teachers, the (professional!!!) CCA coaches, and the industry internship programmes. I am quite happy to be taxed to pay for this. Compare this to the inner city schools of American cities, where these students will be just thrown away as rubbish and later become a societal problem. This is a much better approach to education of the lesser students.

[@thehypetraveler8114]

hk has a lot to learn from sg... in hk these poor kids would just be put in the special needs section and literally nothing done w them to make them useful to society.

[@93hothead]

Why are you taxed for these students to simply become MacDonald staff?

[@John_Smith_86]

@@93hothead They most likely won't be McDonald's workers. Realistically, they will be technicans, other blue-collar workers, retail staff, and so forth. Low income workers, but still decent enough by first-world standards. Better than for them to become criminals. Or be in absolute desperate poverty

[@thehypetraveler8114]

@ u talking abt the us or sg

[@Wasd4132]

​​ @93hothead just cus they score worse in primary school means they dont deserve good education in sec?

[@randomweirdstuff4967]

Rayyan that solo was so so fire!! Amazing amazing job!! Dancing is such a fine art to master and not everyone can get the hang of it, especially niche arts like this! Also, for a first time guiding others, you did really well! Guiding someone is hard and you managed to coordinate a team in such a short timeframe sucessfully! Don't stop following your passions and dreams, you'll definitely go far! :)))

[@starkisserxen]

omg im like- so proud of each and everyone of them and i loved how patient the teachers were ! although my school was a little more on the "prestigious" side, i never had fun there ever- like EVER. And seeing how these kids were given so many opportunities to explore beyond just academics and grades (which was pretty much the only things i was given the time for in my schooling experience) was so heartwarming. i wish all of them nothing but the best and i just kNOW their futures are bright :)

[@John_Smith_86]

You are not supposed to have fun, you are supposed to work

i'm envious. these folks know what they want. i have a feeling many of us just skedaddled our way through school not knowing what we wanted.

[@xiaolek1917]

This is the best secondary school in Singapore. We were the first batch of Normal Technical students in 1990, and back then, teacher often looked down upon and penalized compared to the Normal Academic and Express streams. But now, I see all my friends from ITE doing well in business and excelling in many areas. There’s no such thing as a “stupid” student-sometimes, it's just that the skill hasn’t fully opened up yet.

[@rememberme5784]

I second your statment. That is the case for many.

[@coucalicri]

To better protect the girls, I suggest to the teachers that they should also try checking the HDB staircases, esp the higher floors. The teens tend to hide upstairs to avoid being spotted by teachers and peers.

[@y.ello._.w]

16:12 i really dislike parents who continue to have kids despite not being able to care for already existing ones, why are they making thei older kids take care of the younger kids ? they should not be pushing such responsibility to young kids, if they want to help, thats great, but nasir clearly needs help in math and even signed up for remidial lessons, but he has to go home anyways what are his parents doing? having more kids and creating more problems for their existing children?

[@imnolevi5887]

I understand but their parents are also working hard for the rest they have so many children who knows everyday 1 of them had to take care

[@y.ello._.w]

@ yes, if they felt like 1 is hard to take care, why did they continue to have more?

[@imnolevi5887]

@y.ello._.w blame the father lor

[@heytherejosehere6371]

Its a religious belief. In the Muslim world the more children a couple can have the greater the contribution to the Muslim community, pretty counter intuitive if your broke and still want a big family tbh, but it is just reality. You can search it up why “Muslims want more children?” Edit: And yes this is a targeted answer pointing out Nasir being Muslim. If you want a general answer blame the parents for being naive and foolish.

[@skaliskala]

Keep it up Crest Secondary students. You all will go far and beyond.

[@LynneSalleh]

I think Liang En might have ADHD which needs to address his impulsiveness and other behaviour issues to get him to excel.

[@lamedada]

Yes... I hope the parents give him the support to get him tested and checked and not be the typical "Asian Parent" that don't want to lose face. Like the previous episode, they made him pick Bukit Panjang Govt High as 1st choice and don't like their child's 3rd choice. 🤦‍♀

[@moonstarsun633]

Maybe he is not suit for mainstream school. Even his classmates find him disruptive. This show his classmates truly want to concentrate and study well.

ITE is Not The End...Some of my friend also studied in Polytechnic.This is our goal to achevie it . All the teachers are willing to spend extra time to student who are stugging in some subjects.

[@etherionbl3034]

Sorry to say this but Liang En is the student that will go the wrong path in future. he is trying so hard for attention (Prob because he doesn't receive any at home) and he still don't understand how annoying that is. He will only ruin his own future being this stubborn and annoying.

[@John_Smith_86]

No such jobs in Singapore. Probably not even when he becomes a adult

[@trailvinzyl779]

why the hell they have Victoria secret =D

[@moonstarsun633]

Think if I'm the form teacher, I'll lecture Liang En severely. Have to cos he's so nonchalant over his disruptive nature. Soft on him will get no results.

[@lonelyandforgottenisthe]

He’s nonchalant because of the way he’s been treated. He doesn’t think he can improve and be a better person. He needs to know that his teachers are working with him and not against him.

[@ishouldbedoingmyhomeworkno535]

there a chance that he might have ADHD, you may lecture all you way but you merely treating a graping wound with a plaster

[@nemo_cc]

it's so weird.. why are they having a 15 yo intern at victoria's secret

[@lamedada]

It is weird but these schools looks for companies that wants to work with them. If there are more companies on board, I am sure the school would give the kids go to better choices. But it is important to teach these kids everywhere you go, is a learning point. Valerie indeed was sent to somewhere that is not her choice, but she persevere and it is commendable. Hopefully she can keep in mind like "I do not want to go through this or work here so I must push forward and be better."
