Number of Classrooms: 18 Description: At SJACPS, students learn, participate, experience and explore. Teachers motivate students, ask questions, bring out their curiosity, and guide them to learn and to self-learn. Students acquire knowledge and accumulate experience as they go through their six years of primary education. We aim to plant positive learning attitude in each and every student. We do not believe in giving them the best, but believe in helping them to explore what suits them most.
