2020 PSLE Discussions and Strategies(for those born in 2008)

if we check online, still need to head down to school to collect hard copy results ?

[phtthp]

Yes, still need to go to school to collect the hard copy PSLE certificate. Will be kept in the General office, if is not with your P6 class Form Tr. So maybe view online at home first your Tscore and detailed breakdown of the 4 subjects using login Sing-pass, then collect hard copy PSLE cert another time, where school premises not so crowded on actual PSLE results released day

I think what is important is that u must be able to help your child to progress to the next level of education which is the selection of sec school and also the course (if required to choose) and 3rd language (if applicable).

In the past, besides the results slip , u will be given a sealed S1 option form and eligibility letter as well on results release day and those who can’t collect them personally can appoint a proxy to do so.
The sealed S1 option form will contain a unique Pin No and u are supposed to use this Pin No for the sec 1 registration exercise online.
The eligibility letter will contain info on things like whether the child is eligible to take 3rd language and which specific ones of the 3rd languages if applicable, whether the child is eligible for bonus points and read higher mother tongue in sec school.
Not sure what u will be able to view online (other than the results itself) and if there is any changes to the sec 1 registration this year.
Just make sure u have all the required info for your child to exercise his sec 1 registration options and is able to do so .
The PSLE certificate is for your own records, you don’t need it for the sec 1 registration exercise (it can be collected later), they have the records of what your child scored but they do need to know his options (choice of schools, course, 3rd languages).
All the best!

Based on the official link that Putien shared above, Assumption English School will be having \"...physical engagement for pre-registered parents with limited slots of 5 pax per group starting from 26 Nov\".

As for the other more popular schools, they probably won't bother.

If your child really needs to \"walk walk see see\" type like mine, especially P5 kids still got time, I suggest making use of the school holiday period when the school compounds are far less crowded, write in or call the General Office, see if there's any kind soul willing to give you a very quick tour during the lull holiday season. Small group they may be ok.

This covid year, there are 2 ways of checking your PSLE results

1) go back to school,
collect results from P6 classroom. In past years, usually around 11+ am, P6 Form Teachers start released PSLE results slip and certificate.

Go back to school is more exciting, because you can see your fellow classmates, see your Form Tr and maybe Principal flashed an update on P6 cohort overall Psle statistics via zoom or via overhead projector or announce some vital info, inside your classroom.


2) view online directly from your home PC, using login Sing-pass.

This year, how early can u login to check your Psle Tscore, how many A *, A or B gotten ?

If login 8.30 am online, can see ?

(make sure your login Sing-pass account userid and password, are working properly)

I’m curious to know what time log in for results is available too...

This yr, collection of results r really so quiet.. no atmosphere.. excitement.. last day for the kids to mingle as a class n yet everything is restricted. Sad for them..

Like 1 of the radio stations mentioned, no playing peekaboo with the hardcopy result slip if can be viewed online 😆.. unless u put a paper n cover the screen when u log in n slowly reveal....

If a child score close to 243, how to choose between say fairfield or Swiss if he lives in the west, whether the school culture is suitable, without physically visiting the school?
