Interesting! Wonder if these are new changes. This is definitely different from my girl's time. She is in Y4 now.
Hmmmm..... But my dd also has another pri school classmate (mainstreamer) who scored mid 26x allocated to class 111. So it doesn't seem like there is segregation between geppers and non-geppers. However dd said that on reporting day assembly it was announced/mentioned that there is segregation of classes between DSA students and non-DSA students.alng:
107 is also a GEP class? 6 GEP classes seem too many because the 2013 dragon year cohort only had 5 GEP classes. Those mainstreamers in those GEP classes cut off at quite high,usually 27x and the number is very low.
I do not think there is any further banding among the mainstreamers classes (and also among the GEP classes). So there is no surprise to have high scorers in 101 cos 101 is not the worst class. There is no worst or best class, only GEP or non GEP classes.

Maybe the school is now leveling out the students across classes…

This is a good move. Afterall, there was not much difference between GEP and non GEP classes too. -

It's good that the school goes for collective benefits across all classes.azen:

The distinction between GEP/Non GEP and DSA/Non DSA disappear in Yrs 3 and 4. The girls are classed together based on Subject Combi and RA/Non RA.

Pardon me, what's RA and non RA...? I'm new. -

Raffles Academy . Basically advanced level. See RGS website (Programmes). -
Do non RA students learn less than RA students?

So, is there any formal GEP students being allocated into 101 to 106 this year?
