      only school has the info, that you want.


      This Cut-off-Total (upon 300) for Top 15 percent cohort level, based on 3 subjects for P1/ P2 (English, Maths, Chinese), varies from batch-to-batch.
      There is no fixed Cut-off Total, for every batch. It varies, per batch.
      But school won't disclose this info to parents, although school kept the info, as it is confidential within the school.


      Perhaps 2018 (this year) is the last year, where students still can get this Top 15 per cent cohort level \"Excellence Academic\" award. Come 2019 (next year), since MOE had removed (abolished) graded tests for P1 and P2, there is no more benchmark yardstick anymore, to determine who is, or who isn't, falling within Top 15 percent cohort level. No more collecting award (monetary award) from your MP in Community club

      With the recent Top-down instruction from MOE that \"de-emphasize on grades (score)\", St Nick school subject Teachers and Form Teachers are sealing their lips tightly, over disclosure of any form of academic scores, even to our P5 students.


      example

      just that day (only last week), after 2018 P5 SA2 exam scripts for 5 subjects (includng Higher Chinese) were marked and released back to P5 students, individual subject Teacher walked into the P5 classroom and first thing told all pupils, \"From now onwards, we are not allowed to disclose any form of academic results, whatsoever\".


      But students, some naturally curious (kapo) themselves, they will go around on their own inside the classroom, asking each other, eg. they ask their good friends, ask their recess-time buddies (classmates) for each other marks. If some pupils don't mind sharing, they will tell their best-friends (trusted friends) in class. But if some students don't wish to tell, they won't press further. Those not close to them inside the class, students won't dare to ask. Strange, right ? eg. Whole year seldom talk to each other in class and then suddenly out of the blue, start asking people for exam marks, weirdly ? :? But this is done on their own free will, by the students themselves. Nothing to do with any subject Teacher releasing any academic info to whole class.

            Hi

            May I know if there will be an additional class created for P4? I thought the whole class will be promoted together?

              In 2016 P3, when we moved up to 2017 P4, the whole class moved up together. No pupil got left behind.


              Also, no extra P4 class was created

              2016 P3 : Total, 6 classes

              2017 P4 : same. Total, also 6 classes.
              No extra P4 class created

                    Dear Seniors

                    Please help. I have read some posted replies dated 2013 but not sure whether the policy has now changed.

                    Question: if my older girl is in St Nicholas Secondary school (but from non St Nic 9Primary) . Is my younger daughter eligible to apply P1 under phase 1? or phase 2a2? Or not eligible at all?

                    Thank you in advance

                      Good question. Phase 1 is out as BOTH your children must be in the same school at the same time.
                      Phase 2A1 is also out as the parent must be an alumni of either Pri or Sec schools, not the child.

                      But your 1st DD will have priority in Phase 2A1 for St Nick's if she has a daughter!
