Same! We bought new uniform for her Oral exam too. To leave a good impression, wear a set of new uniform and you will notice your uniform is *brighter* than the rest wearing old uniforms.
Same. We bought also for oral exam. Even if not using for sec sch, it was only $15 each. From August till Nov, they were well worth the money.Ellybelly\" post_id=\"1946820\" time=\"1573913918\" user_id=\"179810:
Haha Great minds think alike.
But my reason for buying was to prepare for the PSLE Oral Exam, Graduation/Prize-giving ceremony, and the results n reporting day for end of year

We know what schools to choose but don’t know if T-score is sufficient to go to school of choice. Anyway, I have lowered my expectation and told dd to lower her expectations for the T-score too. Raise hopes too high, you get more disappointments. Let nature takes its course and we accept whatever T-score she gets. This has been a challenging PSLE exam year indeed. Good luck to next year 2020 batch. Expect the same challenge too. Heard from a friend whose relative work in MOE that the PSLE standard is going to be like that challenging to compare with AL Score in 2021 onwards. Just pray for the best and get the T-score good enough to go to a decent school within our choices.

Anyone thinking of only asking the daddy accompany child? Usually they are the calmer ones right? From dc’s feedback, already know that cannot expect too much. Yet, what if it is much worse than expected…? How should we react?

Both parents will accompany the PSLE child to school by default. But some children will tell the parents not to follow them to collect results. This is one important milestone so why would some children want their parents not to turn up in school on 21/11?

I didn't accompany ds1 during his results release. Because i didn't want my instant reaction to affect him. The dad updated me and i adjusted my moods as essentially this milestone was reached and time to move on. So for ds2, only his dad went with him too. I met up with them later at the restaurant for celebration. (both dsa-ed)

Hello bochapmum3,

Actually, no need 2 parents to accompany kid. Just 1 parent will do, if the other parent is not free, or not easy to apply leave
Just collect the Psle results slip, go back to the car, then open up the file.
If child do well, can celebrate with your family later on, at high tea or dinner at night.
If child did not do well, still must say positive words to encourage your child, because the child had already put in a lot of effort during the long, ardous journey of Psle preparation this year (2019) since January for 9 months , had done his (her) best. It is the effort and the journey that counts more, so must still praise your child, for the effort that had been put in. Don't just look at the end result only (Tscore). As long as your child already done his (her) best, accept it and move on. Anyway, this 3-digit number, doesn't define your child. Based on the Tscore, choose the 6 schools accordingly. Once enter Secondary school, people can't be bothered with this T-score anymore. After step into Secondary school, or when your child grow up into working world, society to work next time, nobody will ask u for your T-score. That's why this 3-digit number doesn't define your child. Once step into Secondary school, everything gets reset
back to base zero, start another new journey, afresh.
Btw, if your child had already accepted DSA offer, come what may, can't take part in S1 posting anymore.
If receive good Tscore, like that lor.
If Tscore unexpected, also like that lor, because u cannot change school, after accepted DSA offer. -
Just wondering if Singapore is the only country in the world having PSLE (Tscore) and scare the hell out of every child and parents each year?

This T-score system is not so worrying, because it still go (operate) by merit, ie. Whoever have a higher T-score with decimal points trailing behind, get to enter the Secondary school first before the rest, which is very fair

It is the 2021 new AL system, where ranking of your 6 choiced-schools come into play, that become tricky and headache. Some more, may encounter computer balloting -

My Guess the New AL system is only a score for the public. (To Discourage academic comparisons). As for Secondary school posting, MOE has the raw marks, they can convert it to whatever decimal points for ranking, and use them for posting behind the scene without our knowledge.
