My son is P6 this year, he is quite weak in his languages but he is good in math and science. He has bronze and silver for various math olympiad. Do you suggest that he DSA to NuSH? What if he can’t cope with the languages in the school, will the school ask him to transfer to another school?

Go DSA to NUSH
May approach school teachers for Eng consultation if he can't cope.

Will there be any remedial class for those weak students? If you belong to the weaker lot, what help will the school render to the students? Any cases whereby the students ask to transfer? My son’s languages are in the B grade, so i am quite worry on this aspect.

There are some compulsory remedials if the teacher thinks its necessary. Private consultation can also be self arranged on the students end. The school will very unlikely ask any student to transfer due to bad language grades alone. Even in the case of really bad grades across all subjects, a repeat of the year might be suggested to improve grades and to learn the fundamentals again. Almost never will a school transfer be forced.

Yes. Can arrange 1:1 or small gp consultation in addition to compulsory remedials. Students can take initiative to approach teachers for additional consultation.

Hi… I am new here. My son is in P6 this year and he is keen to participate in NUS High DSA. Can anyone please share the experience of taking the exam or any idea on how I can help my son success in the enrollment?


Thanks a million.

Hi parents, sorry if this has been asked before. If my child is weak in language (low A), good in Maths and Science but has no other credentials like MO, SO, should we even try to DSA?
