Wow, congratulations u survived PSLE prep haha. Yes I think u deserve a nice few years’ break before starting with the younger one.

Please feel free to share your experience as we go along. Yeah at this age P2, it’s pretty common for the kids to be still in play mode. Recently for SA2 Oral, my DS school gave them a special briefing to prep them beforehand: wear full uniform and held in the school hall. All face the wall no talking until the teacher comes to tap u on the shoulder to call u for your turn. Oral all 3 components tested together instead of previously only 1 or 2 components max in their mini-tests.

So I guess the schools will provide such “training” to make sure they are serious about exams as they grow up :boogie:

Came across these at the bookshop the other day - very useful for brushing up on child's grammar and sentence structuring skills. Can get it as holiday supplementary exercises.

PSLE in 2022 will be based on single digit points scoring system and MOE has released the scoring criteria. But how do we determine what is the cut off points for secondary school selection? There are COP lists in other forum threads but it does not apply to the new scoring system. Has anyone done a conversion for how the previous points translate to the new points??

The current P4 2019 batch (PSLE in 2021) will be the first guinea pig batch under the AL system. Ours will be the 2nd batch. So we wait and see what info is revealed.

I think of all people, their batch will be the most anxious to know!

https://www.todayonline.com/singapore/psle-scoring-system[quote]The Secondary One posting system will also be tweaked in tandem to account for more students getting the same PSLE Scores while schools will also be less differentiated based on cut-off points.

Academic merit will still come first in determining which secondary school a student is posted to. But where there are more students with identical PSLE Scores vying for places in a particular school, a new “tie-breaker” of choice order of schools has been introduced — a student who picks the school higher in his list of six will have priority.

The MOE said it will take the next few years to thoroughly test the new exam scoring and posting system before it is implemented in 2021. In the meantime, secondary schools will have time to strengthen their distinctive programmes while MOE engages parents and students to better understand the new system. Indicative cut-off points for schools, based on the 2020 PSLE scores, will also be provided for the pioneer cohort using the new system.[/quote]

So our kids will be entering secondary school in 2023. The year before they scrap the streaming and GCE O levels! :shock: Can you imagine being the last to sit for N and O levels before it is scrapped? I guess, they had to choose a year to implement it and it had to be 2024! Does anyone have any idea how this affects the IP schools and system?
