How to coach and support your GEP child?

[Nebbermind]

Math concepts in GEP isn’t all the difficult. Most kids will not have any problem understanding. But if they are not as proficient as those math whiz in class, they will have to practice more to gain speed and accuracy.

Attending external classes does not necessary mean these students must be weaker in Maths. Contrary to the thinking, some of them are actually pretty good in Maths and getting full or near full marks.


But I do agree with the rest, the Maths concepts tested are not difficult. Perhaps, it could be a matter of adjusting to the faster pace of teaching.

What about for science? Is GE science different from mainstream?

The topics are the same but the depth is sec 1 and sec 2 standard.

Really? Didn't know that. Oh well... I guess as long as the kids are enjoying the process of the GE curriculum.

Hi, don't see you at the other thread for GEP 2013 P4.
Anyway, my dd is doing ok and seems to be enjoying the GEP journey mostly. After this round of exams tho, I wonder if she will change her mind!

How has your child been coping?

Think that matters more. So as long as they enjoy at the same time, it's a bonus
