This could be outdated. Now no longer em1, em2 or em3. Only foundation. Or standard, right?

I believe so.

\"6. MOE will do away with the distinction between EM1 and EM2 streams, so as to provide schools the flexibility to organise their classes in ways that add the best educational value. \"

First tough SA1 for all the P5s this year. It’s over now. How’s your kids doing? My DS got the worst ever result since P1. Read some post said this is normal… but somehow through the understanding from classmates not true. Others are quite stable. No doubt he has tons of homework to complete but somehow I think he is not serious in completing the school work or rather just wanted to finish & pass up the next morning.


Using his score, I’m trying to explain to him the estimates t-score that he most likely will obtain if he continues with this attitutes. At this age, I don’t think scolding has any effect anymore. Hope talking sense will wake him a little…

We got Eng & Maths papers. He did his best(mean get wrong that he didn’t know) except OE in Eng.lost marks due to careless in Maths.His standard dropped compare with other friends.Usually he was with them.Now 10 marks dropped for three subjects.I just stressed out.can he improve his marks?how?

How much is achievable for OE?

For my ds, his Maths & science improved but Chinese and English dropped drastically. Not sure what happened. I shd focus more in his languages in future.

same problem here with my dd. English dropped by 15marks and Chinese dropped by 20marks!!! Maths and Science maintain. What is happening to the languages?
