Hi, my dd is in p4 this year. I understand that there is an option to choose between normal chinese or higher chinese in P5.


DD wants to continue taking higher chinese but I am wondering what are the advantages of taking higher chinese… In PSLE, all chinese and higher chinese students take the same paper, right?

[nicnac]

To continue higher Chinese, you must meet the benchmark which is 75 minimum, if I am not wrong. If not, you will be asked to take normal Chinese, which some may decide to appeal.

Psle, you will have to sit for both Chinese papers, higher and normal.

standard Chinese will be used for tabulating of t-score, while higher Chinese are graded: merit, distinction etc.

Higher Chinese will help to get 1 or 2 or 3 bonus points, depending on your grade, only when you apply for a SAP secondary school…eg. 255+3.

Hi parents,


My son is in P1 now. May I know if they teach swimming in Tao Nan during PE when they are older? Thanks!

In p3, they will be doing 1 term of swimming during curriculum time.
