screening meant that to gauge the level of the child in academic skill to place him in the appropriate class and supp lesson.

my niece's school st nic practice that.

I have a boy going into P1 next year. You too?

My boys (now in P2 and P3) didn’t go through any screening to be placed in any class. All the classes mixed abilities at P1, and P2 no change of class.


They used to have best class etc when students go from P2 to P3, but even that has been scrapped. The P3’s now also mixed abilities. I think it will stay that way til P5.

As for supplementary class, I not sure about this. But I think not so soon. P1 is quite a "relaxing" year.

Hi


I like to find out more about the choir and SPHERE. Any parents whose boys in these CCAs?

Thanks.

Sorry my reply here late. But in case you still need info, what would you like to know about Choir?

[lchunleo]

not yet, mine P1 registration in 2 years from this year. .:D

[BabyRR]

hi, anyone here registering for p1 this year?

[phtthp]

let's take a look at

Last year (2013) P1 registration, at Catholic High primary

may refer
http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/event ... -phase-2a2

Total vacancy = 240
@ end of Phase 2A1 (alumni) : 68 % Taken Up

balance = 32 % left : for Phase 2A2 (ex-students), 2B & 2C
( 0.32 x 240 ) = 77 seats left

If reserve \"40 compulsory seats\" -
means 2A2 will be allocated (77 - 40) = 37 seats.

But, how many actually registered at 2A2 ?
20 % (ie. 0.2 x 240) = 48 boys registered

means 2A2 fall short of (48 -37) = 11 seats
means eleven CHS boys would have been balloted out at Phase 2A2, last year (2013)

This year (2014) -
Total vacancy same as 2013 : 240
