Hwa Chong Institution (High School)

[BP2013]

After 2 weeks into their new school (dream school for my ds), they begin to settle down. During the next 2 weeks, they will be trying for their preferred CCA. Good luck to all :xedfingers:


Though I must say, they seems to be overwhelmed with homework already... By the way, I heard people saying RI has a \"2-hour homework policy\". What's that?? Or maybe it's just rumours... :?

As a principle, it basically mean that for each subject, there should be no more than 2 hours worth of homework for the boys. However, the measure of 2 hours is very subjective and is typically stated as a 'politically correct answer' when asked by parents. This is at least from what I have heard and observed. But don't worry, they will cope as they go thru the process.

I think it is not maximum 2 hours worth of homework for each subject but for each day instead.

DS is in Year 2 in RI. So far the homework can be completed within 1 hour each day. :xedfingers: But of course the projects haven't started yet. I guess homework =/= projects? :evil:

May I know are we supposed to access the i-Comp besides the portal that we told to log in to access kid’s data and results? The i-Comp comes from a link from this portal.
