- One of the upsides of the CCE system is that it aims to help reduce stress in students because they work alongside the students individually and guide them depending on their specific strengths and ability. In addition, they refrain from using negative language if a student can't complete a project or understand something. They also pride themselves on encouraging students to excel in areas that they are stronger in.
- The CCE system also focuses on holistic education which aims to develop various aspects of a student's personality which ultimately helps them identify what they are better at and stronger at in terms of academics.
- There is no pressure for students to become highly academic because they aim to encourage individuals to choose subjects based on their interests while retaining the importance of academia. They aim to make the students feel more relaxed so they improve on their academic ability without feeling under pressure.
- A downside of the CCE system is the grading system. This is because the bracket is very wide, for example students that score between 90 and 100 will get an A* grade. You may see this as a positive scheme because it gives the chance for more students to receive a higher grade, however, a student that scores 8 more points than someone else but doesn't receive a better grade may seem unfair.
- Despite the system aiming to lessen stress, the grading system may in fact cause more stress for the students. For example, a student may feel more pressure to get a higher grade because the grade margin is substantially larger than you would expect.
