We got Report Book today but no sign of the \"secondary school education. shaping the next phase of your child's learning journey\" booklet

Even if DS got all these booklets, they'll probably never reach me. The only stuff that reach me are consent forms for outings / learning journeys / camps etc. or anything too bulky for his bag ... :faint:

oki from the word of my dd teacher mouth psle standard from this year onwards has been made and will be made more manageable for students thus this explains the easier papers this yr,

[Sspitfire]

Any parents whose DD/DS is studying in AISS?

Currently thinking on which stream to go to (if pass No confidence..), Express or NA?
Express: Foundation Maths, can't keep up with Standard. Do AISS allow Express students to take Foundation Maths?

Normal Acad: Somehow manageable, but Sec 4, My brother said that Sec 4 the NA students will start to suffer because of the very hard exams

Bought this book today, a pleasurable & inspirational read.

dd was told in school today that PSLE will be release on 22nd Nov at 11am.


She is also expected to go back to school on school posting day to collect her PSLE certificate (even though she has a CO and assuming she does well enough to make it to express… in case of freak incidents right…). Did anyone else hear similar timeline???
