Yes, all students take HCL starting from P1. At end of P4, students will be offered HCL in P5 if they qualify. If not, they will take standard chinese.

In the past, regardless if you are taking HCL or CL in P5/P6, all students continue to use HCL textbooks, taught HCL. (Preferred)

From this year P5, only those taking HCL are taught HCL and use HCL books. The rest all downgraded to CL.

Beginning of the year, p shared 2017 PSLE results. Impressive!

Highest score: 285 (that very smart indian boy who is effectively bilingual)
More than 50 students scored more than 260.
More than 70 students scored more than 250. (DD1 is not sure if these 70++ include the 50++ students above 260)

Anyway, we all know this is the work from previous p. All eyes now on this year p6. With all the drastic changes, we shall see.

sorry to revive an old post .... I called the school recently .. I was told for new intakes only P3-P4 takes HCL, P5-P6 is depending on grades. HCL is not offered to P1-P2. But from I read above, HCL was offered to P1 in 2018? So is PCPS deemphasising HCL and shift focus on more other aspects of Chinese culture as part of being SAP?

I have these questions because I'm weighing between HPPS and PCPS for my ds for 2020 intake.

existing PCPS parents, please share your thoughts. tia

I believe your information is wrong. Existing parent here.
My P2 is doing HCL.
HCL is offer to all P1 and P2 as a default.

May I check PCPS has no more homework already? So from P1-6 zero homework?

Hi fantasylanddreams, we used to have compulsory academic support in Eng and Math from P3 but it was scraped this year when new p was on board. Now, there is no more extra support from school, not even in P6. Schoolwork is also kept to a bare minimum. My girls had a lot of free time throughout this whole year. I tried to keep them occupied by signing them up for tuition classes otherwise they would be spending their time on class chat and games!

Neighbourhood schools are always quick to adopt changes that you hardly see in those TOP, popular schools. We are always the guinea pigs!

So it is true that PCPS still keep homework at bare minimal and no strong academic support / supplementary classes? Children v free in the afternoon?!
