Springdale Primary

nestalow:

What are you trying to show and tell?

Mr lim is a maths tutor, he has some students from Springdale primary school.

He is trying to show that when a child come to upper primary p5/p6:-
Child need to work hard, in order to get a good Psle t-score.

Example

If a p6 child aim to enter the secondary 1 \"integrated programme\", instead of gce o level track :-
On average, for the 4 subjects (English, maths, science, mother tongue) -
Child Need to attain minimum 85 marks, before can reach cut off point 255 (as an example)

mr lim had supplied the formula :-

0.75 x (85 + 85 + 85 + 85) = 0.75 x 340 =
can reach lowest 255 cut off point, for most \"integrated programme\" secondary school curriculum.

Band 1 : 85 and above

Band 2 : 70 to 84

Band 3 : 50 to 69

Band 4 : less than 50 marks (failed in this subject)


But if your child is now primary 1 -
won't apply
Until your child next time reach upper primary (p5 / p6), preparing for Psle.

ya, the school doesn’t stated anything about that.

It’s really sad to know the school isn’t concern about this at all.

Hi,

I realised there is a previous teacher’s daughter always given a chance to perform in every school events. I believe your child might know the person. From what I know, she is a daughter of a ex-teacher. Happened to be same class as my daughter. Always selected as a monitoress.

Worst, my daughter and her are both shortlisted to play piano in school. My daughter did well without mistake and confident she will get selected while the ex-teacher daughter makes a lot of mistake while playing. Guess what happened ?? The teacher chose her again!! I’m quite pissed off!! WHY?? She has already been playing during cny in a video broadcast to school. Why they don’t give other talents a chance???

I will bring up this matter during parent meeting day!! Quite disappointed on this school. I hope to see fair treatment.

Highlight to the (principal + all vp, hod, tr ) that :-

outright, blatant favoritism & biasness, or special privilege, is not allowed on any particular student, in any primary school in Singapore.

All students to be given a fair, equal chance of displaying their talent in school.

Not just keep focussing or zoom in / narrow down on just one particular student all the time -
regardless of whether this child’s mother is a current or past / ex teaching staff, from this school.

Highlight to higher management?? Hm…m my girl is in Primary 2 now and her form teacher is a new teacher transferred from other school. Qtn is why the new form teacher knows to pick the special girl to be the class monitress again?? I suppose there might be instruction passdown…who has the power to give this instruction?


That is why I’m disappointed the school is operating like Corporate world nowsaday.

Fyi, there is only 7 students registered interest with the school bus operator.
The school is saying \"You may call school bus operator to make the transport arrangement\" that is stated in the memo is the way they inform parents.
I'm kind of disappointed and I've decided not pursue this matter any further.
Really have to wish our kids: \"Best of Luck!\"

I am disappointed with this school too. Last time when I called to tell them the bus arrangement issue, the staff can tell me that \"last year we dont hve such issue, most parents csn fetch the kids by 330pm\"!
Didn't the sch realised most of them could be foreigners so obviously not both parents are working. why cant they be more proactive rather than reactive towards such situation. haiz!
