Hmmmm, poor kids. :gloomy:

It's not only the GEP but also happening in the mainstream. I heard one P5/P6 kid from a school in the West commit suicide last year. Really sad...

The pressure usually comes from parents then anywhere else.[/quote]

True, but GEPers will have it tougher. Not only is the syllabus tougher than mainstream, but this group is seen as 'doing no wrong' in the sense , they will not fail, they will do well in every aspect PSLE, DSA... I mean won't you raise an eyebrow if someone tells you a GEPer fails any subject? That's why if they are not 'naturally gifted', the pressure on them is going to be immense, and parents' support and understanding is so vital.

1. more challenging curriculum
2. smaller class size

If your child is grossly underchallenged in mainstream, GEP would be good for him

I agree. Quite often the gifted kids are bored with regular syllabus by P3 and they start to cruise along and not pay much attention.
