2018 PSLE Discussions & Strategies (Born in 2006)
-
Seeking opinion from parents with kids who normally only got average results (mid 60++ range) but did better in PSLE.
Since your children will be in Sec 2 next year, I am trying to understand if it’s challenging for them to cope with Sec 1 without tuition? Is it stressful or difficult to catch up with the rest of the students in the Sec 1 class? Any who can’t cope and school asked them to drop to NA?
My DD1 somehow already decided on the school choices but since last night, I suddenly felt kind of unease and worried that DD1 might not be able to cope with Sec 1 with her current choice.
Do drop me a PM if it’s inconvenient to share publicly. Thank you. -
@love1001. Hihi! If it is IP, & the primary school grades of 60s are across all subjects, then yes, please start working on Maths & English this holiday. If it is the child's choice, go with it, I'm sure she will be more than willing to work to close the gap.

Thank you sky. Not IP, only Express but even so, I am worried if she is able to cope given that the number of subjects will increase from 4 to 9.

@love1001. The school will guide her along & she'll blossom fine, don't think too much. Well, you can always monitor her progress first, touch base with her secondary school teachers, Then decide if you need to worry.

Sec1 is honeymoon year, let her enjoy herself! -
love1001, I read from one of the member’s posting on the median score … can go to moe website, type the school’s name and can see the info. Will feel more relieved if kids score is around or not too far from median. Hope it helps you in your decision making too.

Will be able to cope reasonably well? Mayb use standard of rosyth , nanhua, scgs papers , mgs papers as guide ? -
@MP. ? If the child's TScore meets the COP, & the child is up for it, just go for IP; no need to overthink.
