Abstract: In this research, a survey was conducted with a group of students and teachers from a neighbourhood primary school in Singapore to investigate about their experiences and perceptions about blended learning. The results show that both teachers and students agreed that blended learning aided learning. However, they did not prefer blended learning to traditional face-to-face learning. Teachers felt that they were not able to get the attention of all students during blended learning. As such, they felt that students should be more self-directed and well educated about the various IT tools. Students felt that they were unable to clarify their doubts with their teachers and peers during blended learning. As such, there should be better communication facilities for them to communicate with their teachers and peers.
