My boys' teachers already interviewed every single one of them at the beginning of this school year, asking them their plans and which secondary school they want to go to, and worked with them personally on setting goals.

Wow, your Boys got very caring and Forward planning teachers!
So far, My Gal's teacher not mentioned about sec school at All. From what I gather from her Seniors' Mummies, we have to do the thinking / Planning ourselves. Even Letter of Recommendation, if we need, say for DSA, got to specifically request from them ....

Well, it really depends on the teachers, I think. Maybe these 2 teachers (there's a form teacher and a co-form teacher) are very enthusiastic. Both men. Have pros & cons to having a male teacher. Unthinking at times, but I think they handle the boys fairly well. haha!

My elder boy's teachers were not that way. And yes, I doubt the teachers would do Testimonials unless you request. Last year, we got the elder one's testimonial from his CCA teacher, not from his form teacher. And no, they are not briefed on DSA.

Hi Mummies,

Glad to know your kids finished your exam…and some kids have done well. So your kids will be going to P6 next year…understand P5 is a drilling year, so P6 is the REAL thing.

Hi Funx3 and Brenda,

My DD also tends to relax more with CL exam preparation. She usually spends the least amount of time on CL.

Actually, SA2 exam schedule worked out nicely....after Maths paper, DD took a break and did last minute revision for science, her weakest subject. Yes, one can always pray for a miracle for science...

Hi Tinkerbelle

Perhaps CL is unlike Maths that has to do more practice in order to remember all those methods/models.

Finally left one paper science tomorrow, however her form teacher still very on. Heard from dd she went through with them yesterday and some more gave some worksheets to practice. Today she will also go through with them again after the CL exam.

Wish your dd all the best in her science exam.

Hi Brenda,
Thanks for your well wishes. DD needs lots of it.
Not long to go for your DD......counting down to the last paper. :lol: Ya, DD's science teacher also very on...went through some very last minute revision with them but unfortunately, DD said questions didn't come out in exam.
Haha....she thought her teacher was giving the class clues. I told her in the real world of PSLE, there'll be no clues.

Good luck to your DD in her science exam tomorrow. After that, you can party. :celebrate:

Hi Tinkerbelle

Thank you.

Finally the last paper should be end now (8.00 am to 9.40am)

Went through with her the Science yesterday and really can see is not easy to answer the science open and end question on this type of question like 'What will happen to the thin layer of water after you mop the floor? '

Understand their teacher will releaes the Maths result today and heard from dd the teacher had declosed one of them get a 'B'.

I am meeting her for lunch and hopefully everything fine.

SA2 is over! :celebrate: Dd did fine for EL & Maths.


Heard fm dd the top 80 students will be seperate into 2 best classes e.g. 1st, 3rd,5th, ... go to A class & 2nd, 4th, 6th, ... go to B class.

Dd's TR did talk to them abt the choices of their sec sch. Dd is still blur blur one. lol

Hi Bellerina,

Congratulations to your DD for doing well in EL and Maths. :rahrah:

Your DD's sch has an interesting and unique way of streaming the top students. My DD's sch allocates the top 40 students into the best class and the next 40 into the 2nd best class.

Thanks, Tinkerbelle. Too bad, dd got low marks for CL & Science. Got to wait till report book to see how is the standard.
