Hi


For year 3s, what would be the usual median for sciences and maths? All around 3.6 or 4? How about for the languages?

Much thanks. School has announced removing the median from this year, so hope to get some benchmark from previous batches if possible!

Definitely not 4, in the upper 3s.Math median is higher than sciences

I see...median is quite high. I have heard the recent Maths PPA were quite hard. Without the median, I guess parents can only hope that things are ok.

Now that things are opening up, tution should also be increasing in volume. While waiting for a suitable math tutor to reply, maybe your child can start by looking into the 10-years-series. I do that for every course since my A-Levels. You see the question first, and if you cannot answer the question, then you look for the specific study material to read and understand. Then you try answering the question again and look for other similar questions to answer.
In a sense, it is finding the answer to give you a reason to read your school books, instead of just reading your books from the first to the last page. It is much more effective as a learning strategy.

You can check out the IP math lessons at NickleBee Math. They just opened a new branch in Bishan near Catholic High School.

It is a major adjustment from P6 to Year 1. Your daughter just needs the time and space to adjust to the increased subject count, overwhelming workload and new school culture.

(1) Time management skills -- work on a time table with your daughter.

(2) Communication -- be a good listener and be less quick to judge. you can try talking about the differences between her previous school and RGS in your daily conversations

(3) Set boundaries -- be firm. If she cross the boundaries, then her privileges are taken away. The children have to learn that actions have consequences, and learn from their mistakes.
