          Very worried about this year's PSLE cohorts. Already HBL is not that effective like classroom training, plus they missed lot of revisions which normally happens before SA1. These kids sit directly for Prelims and PSLE within 2 weeks.

          Btw, any further details on Non-examinable topics for PSLE?
          In facebook post, I saw \"Volume and Piecharts\" for Maths.
          In MOE, it says \"Interaction with environments\" for science.

          Waiting for more details.

                Some secondary schools are conducting virtual/online Open House this year. Please check the website of the school you’re interested in.

                    MConline (by Marshall Cavendish) is a relatively older platform (older than SLS). We used it for travel declarations before Parents Gateway app was launched.

                    There are some limited functions & resources that our school still uses, Eg free Gmail account for the kids. Which they can then use to access Google Classroom functions.

                      As zac_mum suggested, it's advisable to keep a look out via the individual school's website. Catholic High, for example, has a virtual open house scheduled on Sat, 16 May 2020 (https://catholichigh.moe.edu.sg/openhouse). 😉

                      Way before SLS was implemented, MC Online and ASKnLearn were the 2 main online learning management system.
