Homeschool PSLE different from National PSLE?

jedamum:

applying for Govt jobs already have requirements of LOCAL polytechnic diplomas, so what say you?

But all the leaders graduate from foreign universities. We still send our top president scholars overseas.. Ironical. If we are so confident of our education, why send them away. Afterall, we have 3 (going to be 4) \"GREAT\" universities, don't we?
Actually, tomorrow I must talk to my friend, maybe just \"tong\" another 4 years, then try and go for university... Take up the place of a talented child there rather than in the schools...

homeschoolers already have this advantage, so does it matter which sec sch they go to? so leave the much-sought-after-school-vacancies to mainstream students (children of commoners like us), k?

Hey jedamum, it.

Have a cup of tea.

Also, I've done some research on homeschooling some 8 years back. These students perform much better in the university and more independent learners compared to traditional schooled children.

Homeschooled children can be our leaders also. Why would the government want to treat them differently? :?

Don't know why the parents want to put him back to mainstream, but why are they deprived? They are taxpayers also ma...[/quote]there will surely be a cut-off to the amount of 'fairness' taxpayers will enjoy. i have my fair share of rants with such one-size-fits-all ruling in other govt dept of which they only bother to quote standard protocol statements for me :roll:

No lah, you mean you know who I am... I'll :siam: from here soon! Anyway, why gahmen come after me har? I didn't say they are no good what? I just wonder why the treatment is different ma...

Anyway, I do like some of the policies, but sometimes one size doesn't fit all lah... Hope that they will listen and change accordingly. The gahmen has changed a lot in recent years, and I believe they will continue to change going forward...

I am not running for opposition ma... never will go into politics. No time, no money to waste, don't bother, rather spend some time with friends and have a cup of tea sometimes.

most (all?) leaders graduate from local pri/sec la....this is MOE's ricebowl....
university is a different ballgame.

if your friend's appeal does not go through, just tong another 4 yrs, after all already tong 6 yrs and there are a lot of other options out there for motivated learners. when one window is closed, another will be open.

A lot of people say that homeschooled kids lack social interaction. What social interaction do they miss? Mixing with kids all of the same age? But the society is not like that ma... it is made up of people of ALL ages. Wouldn't it be the school is a school environment, then when we leave, we learn new ways to cope with the society. New rules, new ways of interacting...

I recalled having read somewhere on more than one instance
that those young prodigies in Unis emotional development were lacking
far behind their mental abilities.
In their growing up years, the kids should really
have more opportunities to interact with people of ALL ages
in varied environments.
I didn't mean that they should be limited to kids of their
own age in a school environment.
