Singapore is known for its vigorous education programs that cause many students to become stressed and eventually break down, harming themselves and those around them.

What about your friends and close friends? Do you have any? https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382064718 I do have but I don't really talk to them about this.
(Interviewer: "You don't really confide?" )

But it also depends on the other person as well because I'm quite extroverted. So I got no problem sometimes. But then on some occasions, like no matter how extroverted you are, the people around you are like very introvert. So like, they don't really talk a lot. So that kills my mood also lah. And I feel like poly, I've come across like these kind of people. So yeah

Because at that time, it was very new to all of us, like home based learning and everything. So it's quite a memorable experience. Because like, the teachers were so caring.
The teachers were so caring. And yeah, they were quite nice. And then I got closer if some of the teachers also lah. So during that period of time, I basically texted like, one teacher every single week.
Yeah, just to check up on each other because I couldn't go anywhere. And I was losing my sanity as well. Yeah, so that was a very horrible experience, because I'm not someone that will stay at home for like a long period of time. So usually, I go out, like, at least once a week, but during the break, I couldn't go out at all and my parents ran the errands for us, so I couldn't go anywhere. Yeah, so that was very memorable.

I was alone. I was alone at home trying to figure out What is the teacher saying because usually that in a physical setting I usually ask my friend, Oh what did this teachers say like can you explain to me, but then at home I cannot ask that and asking on WhatsApp like a bit distracting also  for my friends also so I tend not to ask anyone then like if so usually online lessons I get very lost so so usually when I get lost I don't know what the teacher is talking anymore than I kind of just tune out ah, so I have a lot of like things to catch up after right once the lesson and so I think like it kind of like made me not understand some like some topics for certain subjects and stuff so whatever was taught during circuit breaker was like the weaker topics for those subjects. So if you so like when those questions come out in exam we affected lah, it affected my grades of course.

Okay, if I were to do it for myself, it's definitely nothing but I used to during my second secondary school yeah during my secondary school times I used to, like, stan a certain idol group that has disbanded but during that during that period of time, they actually motivated me to like actually do study and do well and get a good job so that I can when I grow older, I can spend my money on their merch merchandise. Yes. And all that. So yeah, no, they were like one of the pushing factors now for me to earn to study well, get a good job and get money and another thing is that my grandmother actually passed away in 2020. So So during that period of time, like she, she, she didn't have like much expectations of my studies. For her it was like more of like passing Okay, that's all matters So okay, so So of course that if I get good grades, she will be happy lah. So okay, I made a promise to her that okay, I should do well and study well and get a good job and get money to have a comfortable life. So yeah, that's what pushes me on.

And watch Idol group shows because it takes my mind off stuff. But as I grow older I tend to reach out to my friends and complain to them because we were complaining we complain everyday every time yeah and recently even closer to my teachers also then I'll complain to my teachers also

(Anaqi) https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382078285 Not really those from around me, but personally I put pressure on myself to achieve higher and to get good grades.

]]> 2022-11-14 02:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382078285 Have you had any bad experiences in secondary school? https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382078651 Bad experience okay, then then. Okay, now that you say it I have one yes. Okay. So in sec one and sec two I used to have this bunch of friends that you know, so and apparently we don't really get along well with each other and like, they're quite toxic also. So like they will try to pull me down. If I get like if I get grades that are higher than them they will like try to pull me down and stuff like that. And if things go wrong in that way, they will push it on me they push the blame on me that makes me think like what did i even do you know? Yeah, not Slay

(Kai Lek) p0k3m0n90909 https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382079040 The thing that causes the most stress in secondary school is when like when I had to compete in a competition for my CCA and also cope with my studies at the same time which is kind of like difficult because it was near the n levels examination period.]]> 2022-11-14 02:19:22 UTC https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382079040 What did you think caused you the most stress in secondary school (Selena) https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382079199 Academics lah what else if not what else

]]> 2022-11-14 02:19:29 UTC https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382079199 what part of academics stressed you out (Selena) https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382079603 Okay, so sec 1 and sec 2 was generally fine, but once you go to like sec 3 and sec 4 is completely different from what you learned in sec one sec two. So like, even the questions that they asked is not so straightforward and like you really have to link them up. And I was like not even though I understood the concept, it was very hard for me to link up. What I want to say to the question itself. So, yeah, so that was like, yeah.

]]> 2022-11-14 02:19:46 UTC https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382079603 Have you ever felt the need for someone to listen to you about your troubles or bad experiences (Selena) https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382080030 I think at that time, yes, I was quite desperate. But, But ultimately, I just forget about it anyways lah. Because I still have homework to do. Yeah So this this kind of feeling like just left uncapped, yes. Never settled. Yes. unsettled.

]]> 2022-11-14 02:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382080030 do you think there's enough done in the community for students to cope with academic stress? (Selena) https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382080499 Actually no, not enough? Not enough? Okay. I know like the psle system has changed. They say is like for lesser stress, but all I see is more stress. Because last time, the very top grade that you can get is obviously a star, which is like 90 and above. But honestly, in in psle, nobody really aims for a a star lah. Everybody just aims for a. about 75, 85 80. Yeah, around there. Yeah. But now they changed the very first grade to, I think 90 something and above. Yeah. So actually, when you put like grade one, something like that, actually, a lot of a lot of children feel like, hey, I need to get a grade one, because grade one is like the best of this. So I think that leads to like more pressure because grade one is harder to get. And also, because I think theres one of the grades in PSLE. That has a very large gap. That I think, is like 40 something  to 60 something. Yeah, for that one grade. So obviously, a lot of people want to avoid that range.
So that leads to a lot of stress. So I don't think the government is trying to solve it properly. And if they want to solve it properly, right, they could cut down on maybe the number of topics that we have to study per year. Because a lot of times the topics cannot be like completely covered in normal school. So he has to be covered in like supplementary lessons, which makes no sense.
It Makes no sense when you actually think about it. Right? Because after school people are supposed to relax, do their own things, but end up people have to go for another lesson to catch up on the topic. So cutting down the topics is good. And I think like it happened during the covid period when like, during level period, we cut out some stuff. So it lessens our stress lah so yeah, especially organic chemistry.
So they should definitely cut down on the topics that we have to learn. Yeah, yeah. And also, I think one of the more common common things that the government tries to do when students are under stress is to go for therapy counselling, but actually some time isn't it's not a long term solution. It's just a short term. So the long term should be thinking about how to change our education system such that is more lighter for students especially young kids.

When it comes to academic stresses, they can personally understand me.
They can give me advice on how to deal with this kind of stress.

So this the Yeah, so I see a point in learning whatever we've done in secondary school, but then you can see it another way that we learn too much things. So sometimes, a lot of students like just learn it and forget about it. Like, honestly, who even knows how plants photosynthesize anymore? Actually ok I also know lah but
But how many people know how algebra? Not a lot of people? Actually I know actually, I still know about.
But my point still stands. Okay. Do you still even remember the periodic table? No, you don't know 
Shut up. But you know, they also don't remember. About the reaction the reaction table? Yeah. See? Nobody remembers anymore so its not important
yeah, so I think that the education system is not slay Yeah, I can do like a more hands on, I will say more hands on, so that the students understand what they are learning applies, in real world, as well. Yeah. And if, and also, because we are going on to a more like, more team work based kind of situation in the workforce. So it's good to like, start having group projects in secondary school, so that people know how to work with one another, and not be a bitch in poly.

(Kai Lek) p0k3m0n90909 https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382083164 I didn't because I keep quiet about my mental health issues, and I was afraid that I will be judged by others.

(Referring to last 2 years in Secondary school) I know you say academic, you managed to relieve your stress. But then what push you onto aspire greater to try and reach your goals despite all the stress. (Wei Jun) https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382083215 At that time I didn't really have much motivation except for my family, especially my mom taught me into continuing and my form teachers at a time they usually do parents teacher meeting they would like try to encourage me right in front of my parents. So those are like some of the factors that pushed me onwards.
...
(Interviewer: "how did you get talked into continuing?" )
My teachers and parents, just say that you have studied for three years. I mean, in secondary school. So you work so hard before? Why waste the effort now?]]> 2022-11-14 02:22:16 UTC https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382083215 Can you tell me a bit about how you experience stress? https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382085751
The sensation you feel like maybe like lonely,feel like giving up or self-doubt within you.Whenever I feel stressed, I always feel very overwhelmed, and I feel like.I'm not achieving the goals I set for myself, yeah.I was very unmotivated to continue like my studies or like to pursue my goals.

What are your opinions on that? https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382087067 Yes. Good for them lor.
Okay, well, I mean, actually, I think, naturally good or bad in studies? I think it comes from youngit comes from young, like, some of my privileged friends, like they have tuition from young. So have you having tuition from young and consistently going to tuition actually helps a lot with than being an academically gifted, not say gifted. But yeah, they're more smart in that sense. But for my less privileged friends, they don't really go tuition. So like, they're not that. Yeah, essentially. It's not really like, born kind of thing. I would say. I mean, I was born smart. Then what happen to me now.
You get you get me I was I was that one. I was that little kid last time. That knew how plants photosynthesize when I was a little kid. Like, like, literally when I was four years old. I knew how plants photosynthesize and stuff like that. But as I grow older, I don't even know what happened to this society. Yeah, so you see, yeah, so it because I don’t have tuition also. Also, I think they changed things.

No, no, no, no, you've got anything. You just talk to me your father. You know this kind of Asian household. Yeah. Yeah, but some things you don’t want to just want to talk to your parents, right.

I have a lot of issues also but er
Yeah, but the next thing will be money wise money.
I think therapy is too expensive to go to? Yeah.

So I think in Singapore, they tend to overlook the tend not care about your mental health issues. I think as long as it's not too serious like that, you cannot get out of bed or whatsoever. Yeah, so like, Yeah, I think this not say they don't care, they probably care. But at the same time, they look at your qualifications more than whatever mental health you know, if you're smart, you're talented, who cares? But you got depression, I want you kind of thing. Yeah.

You And I know that there is this one person. He's  was the class monitor for our class. And he was
he basically, his behaviour was not very friendly. Not very friendly. He's very teacher's pet ok being just nothing but when you kind of snitch on the class, even though the class has agreed on something
that makes you a bad person. And so when I think when his depression got worse and stuff like that, I think the students around the students that know that he has depression, we're not very nice to him.
Yeah. They were not very nice to him and what what happened? I think, yeah, the students also made fun of his depression and stuff like that. Yeah. Yeah. So the moral of the story is don't be an ass

Maybe? Because I have a good support of friends that will care for me yeah so they will definitely care.

(Interviewer) Ok lets say, a student wants to reach out to their teacher, do you think it’s a good idea
Ok so yeah I think it’s a good idea so first and foremost teachers are adults mah so they should have more experience in life. So they have the wisdom to guide us students to the correct path and stuff like that so er yeah. When  you voice your opinions to the teacher. Maybe the teacher has been doing something that affects your self esteem, then if you let the teacher know, the teacher will be like oh im so sorry for that, like they will take note of their actions. But if they don’t take note of their actions then haha. Then they are not a good support system lah but majority of the teachers from what I know lah, care about their students. So of course it’s a very good base to start with.

But it is very niche, and it's not really affected sometimes such as school counselors.Students may not feel very safe to see them as information might leak towards their teachers or their parents, which can really affect them deeply when it comes to mental health or personal issues.

I find that Singapore's education system is difficult because they are trying to meet like trying to have high standards for jobs so that everybody can do well in their jobs. However, I also feel that even though it's difficult. It is good because you also offer other people different pathways to get into tertiary education. So even though it's difficult, even though people might feel like they are national exams, they are still able to get into tertiary education, which helps a lot. Then I also feel that even though this education system is good, there are some improvements that can be made, which is like because Singapore’s education system focuses mainly on academy, but it's not focusing on the creativity side of things.]]> 2022-11-14 02:39:09 UTC https://padlet.com/p0k3m0n90909/hikesysu58yziff2/wish/2382103913 What do you think about Singapore's education system?

It is just that maybe their environment or their surroundings has caused them to develop these mental health issues.

It could be certain personal issues that they have faced, like at home that causes the Issues to form.
