      Oic, didn't know that. No wonder my dd said this year's psle paper only had 1 question on speed ( if never rem wrongly)

      Aiyo, spent so much time practising on those speed questions.

      Next year psle maths any new topics? Since Speed topic will be removed? One less topic, will be more manageable for 2020 batch if that's d case 🙂

      Yes, my dd's tutor(not her teacher) said speed will be out of syllabus next year so the tutor told them not to spend too much time on speed; just know the simple speed. Schools are probably aware but the teachers don't explicitly tell the children. They actually should so that children don't spend a disproportionate amount of time going through speed before this year's PSLE.


      Yup, didn't hear anything from the teachers. Ur tutor is updated! Good advice from him / her. Save your child precious time, to focus on what's impt. My dd spent much time trying to master all those complicated speed problem sums on meet-up and etc. But didnt came out in psle. First things she mentioned after psle math was that there was only 1 speed question!

        On the other hand, if they tell and it turns out that there are a couple of questions on speed, will you be turning around and blame the school? It’s still in the syllabus; while school may have tried to spot questions, they are unlikely to second guess SEAB.

          Speed, time and distance go hand in hand. That means the whole topic will be out as well if speed is gone? A bit cannot understand leh.......

            Fyr only; except for Maths (which does not seem that useful), the others (content) look good enough for an informative sharing session.

            Another fyr. Looks relevant, especially modules 3, 5 & 6.

            It's not easy to find reasonably priced explanatory sessions for Sec curriculum, just saying...

              Her tutor(ex-school teacher) said if MOE intended to remove speed the following year, they would not go big on the topic that year. She based this on her experience.

              Well, i guess you also may be right, parents might blame the schools if the tough qns from speed appeared so schools just did not want to commit.

                I need recommendation for Sec 1E Math assessment book. I am hesitant to get the textbook as I heard there will be a change of Sec 1 Maths syllabus next year with new Maths textbook launched. Thanks.

                        All these can sell?


                        I thought to keep them all in a big box and throw in storeroom for time being.
