      If I am not wrong, the whole cohort uses the HCL from P1 to P4.


      Come P5, only about 60 - 70 will be recommended by school to take 4S+HMT. By P6, those who did not make the cut for HMT by obtaining merit for HMT will be asked to drop HMT, thereby resulting in only about 40 (give and take) who eventually takes 4S+HMT at PSLE.

      There is also an additional class for HMT, but this additional class is by parents’ choice and not the school’s recommendation, so these pupils will not be in the same classes as those recommended by school to take HMT.

        The above is true till last year P6 cohort. My elder son is in Sec 1 this year & his level cohort used HCL text till P4. However, their compre & compo was not according to HCL syllabus or standard. There has been changes over the recent years. I think now from P3 onwards only top classes do HCL. Currently their comp & compre are following HCL syllabus.

          Mummy So Kiasu,


          You are right. They use the same textbook, but only top few classes will cover the extra 深广topics. 🙂

            Only top 3 classes cover the HCL and with additional HCL paper during exam (extra day) compared to the other 5 classes.

                Are you staying in Ang Mo Kio? Is your child going to Nan Chiau next year? All schools are using the same Chinese textbook & there is no English textbook. Whereas for Math, NCPS used Discovery Math last year & this year change to Shaping Math.

                    Yes, I have a P2 girl in NCPS. The school will be operating single session from next year onwards. You might want to check with Poh Lee transportation. Alternatively, there will be a childcare centre operating within the school premise from next year onwards.

                        I know of a P5 student who has externally completed P6 Math syllabus and completed P6 Math assessment books too. My jaws dropped and it’s amazing, looking at Nan Chiau standard. This is kiasu but it will help the child a lot when the child sit for final year paper in P5.
