Open Quote If you have a child who is average, this school will be fine for your family. However, if you have a child who is above average or below average in any subject, Suring is not a school where your child will receive the best possible education for their abilities.

Suring is a very small school. If your child has problems with 1 teacher, there are no other options. He/She is stuck with that teacher, possibly for many years. Close Quote
