Thank you. I don't mind knowing. It's good to have a parent so \"closely\" linked to the school. Very useful. Hehe.

Yeah man, now that we have someone on the 'inside'. Best is that php can gain access to principal regularly :evil: .

In corporate life, there's real power & then there's perceived power.

Very often perceived power is more dreaded than real power. So php, you know what to do rite

actually, i talent-spotted a gentleman who was capable to do this job but he not keen to join us…hahaha…

how they mark the paper? is it one teacher mark all the papers for the entire level?

Not sure, but know its more than 1. I see 2 different tones of red pen ink and more than 1 handwriting on mine.

Hurray!! Hopefully, more heads are better than one. We used to do marking together for all subjects, so we can discuss every discrepancy before the parents spot them. hehe. Not sure what's PH's practice?[/quote]E3 was right..group discussion and one teacher marked for 2/3 classes.

:? Perhaps my child's answers were pretty controvesial, there were quite some changes made with different tones of red ink. Btw, she has brought back all papers except Science yesterday.

Is this practise across all subjects or just applicable to Science?

Not to add more \"fire\".
But school should avoid setting \"controvesial\" question for exam.
Like what you guys mentioned about \"tiny micro-organism\".
\"Micro\" is a technical term but not tiny. What is tiny to one person might not be tiny .. so it is very subjective, whereas \"micro\" is a more suitable technical term.

Hi Mummies with kids going to P3 next yr,

It’s best to teach your children to answer questions according to PSLE standard. Teachers marking Science are very strict…this is good bcos the kids will know what to expect and how to answer pertaining to the question to get that crucial mark…from P3.

I returned the SA2 papers yesterday. Understand report book will be released tomorrow and to be returned on Monday.

My daughter is very determined to clear her confusions. She found this
[quote]What are microorganisms?
Microorganisms are very tiny living things. They are so small that you need a microscope to see them.
