      Is NYPS one of the 16 schools doing away with P1 exams?

      May be can call up the school and ask

      Personally I think doing away with exams will end up like some angmo countries which do not have exams and the standard of what they learnt will drop like a stone

      exams is still a transparent and relatively fair basis to judge the learning progress of the kids....so far there is still no better instrument to measure learning progress (my own opinion only)

        My P1 girl already does not have exam this year. Think they will only have SA2 for P2.

          P2 only has SA2 this year. But they will have ‘holistic’ assessments throughout the year. Make up certain % towards year-end results.


          Understand P1 & P2 will not have any SA starting next year.

            Heard that they try to "stream" students by P3 for purposes of preparation for gifted exams? Hmmm…any truth in this?

                No position ranking of student in the class. However, if you ask the form teacher, the official answer is \"No\".

                They can give you a range of the ranking, within the class as well as ranking in the cohort. Officially they don't do ranking....but how could it be ...... the performance of certain classes are within a very tight band.

                But they do provide a detail list of subjects with their highest / lowest / mean / median scores and percentile range as well. For P5 & P6, they also include the individual t-scores of each subjects : highest / lowest / SD, etc

                  Hi, im staying within 1km from NYPS so should fall under 2C but i missed out the PV registration. So do you think that the chances are high for 2C or i should play safe and opt for nearby sch like RGPS.


                  The registration for 2011 for 2C is in 2-4th Aug. Any parents out there facing this same situation?

                  How do we monitor the applications and if balloting is required?

                        That's a thing of the past now. We have not had flood for awhile now. Touch wood. Nowadays its only flooding at the 6th avenue area.
