"Honestly based on my experience i do not recommend this school.Across my six years at acs primary school i have experienced the most depressing period of my life.People in this school do not like individuals from other schools such as st Andrew’s students for completely no absolute reason.Send ur kid/teen to this school if u want to get direct affiliation to acs barker which is a kampong version of acs independent.Teachers are mean and inconsiderate.Owners of acs are not handling the school up to its high expectations made from the past."

"Rly nice place and if you go in front of oldham hall you can do ice fights there. Buy ice in the large cup for 20 cents and just say that you want to put it in your water bottle. Go throw ice at your friends very fun rate 10/10"

"Great place, skipped morning assembly multiple times by hiding around in places around the school. Jilliane Chew once punished me for standing up because I wanted to get a better look of the computer while doing a class project involving coding."
