"Not sure about the school performance, only went there for badminton on weekend. Like some other people mentioned, the floor is slippery and u need to climb up 5 levels before reaching the courts."

"(In the perspective of a former student) Frontier Primary is a really good school. Food is fine. My science teachers really know what they are doing. They are strict but funny too. Lots of activities to do during recess. They even have a game room opened during recess! Students are fine, some are naughty but smart. 👍"

"I only went there for booking badminton court, so I will tell you how to get in. Upon facing the front gate, turn towards your left and keep going until there is a gate. Walk into the gate and walk up the staircase. Just keep going until you reach level 5 which will be a bit tedious, and then there is the ISH and then open the door. All schools in Singapore are good schools, which means that this school is a good school too!"
