i was told by my friends P2 should have exams...if not how to grade them :?

Next year will be the first year the school implements no exams for P1s and P2s, as per MOE's directives.

When I asked Mdm Tan Kim Yong how could the school stream the pupils if there were no exams, her reply was, \"no streaming\".

However, I think the school will use the various worksheets (aka tests) to stream the pupils, somehow.

Very confusing...does that mean they will stick with their exisiting classmates for the next 5 years of their Pri school?

Photos of the most of the teachers were updated... I wonder why they didn't update the form teachers for 2011

Because they haven't decided on which teacher will teach which class? :scratchhead:

Aiyoh...school opens next week and they have yet to decide...or perhaps they have decided but just not to update.

I cannot believe it :shock: :!: ..my DS was upgraded 3 sizes up...then when I went home to compare his existing school uniform with the new ones bought...they were almost the same in width but except for the length....


Early this year, when i bought the PE shirts..same size on the collar but vastly different in actual size...Anyone has this problem? Or is it just me...

Really should feedback to the school about the vendor.

There will be exams from P3 onwards. Hence, won't be stuck with same classmates until P6, unless their results are close/similar.

The last I checked (last week), it wasn't decided yet.

But it seems like our sons will be getting the same form teachers.

Just wondering, if the school hasn't decided on the class allocation, how did your son's form teacher know in November that she wouldn't be teaching your son next year? :scratchhead:

My guess is that the school has gone to a different vendor. The materials are different, too, if you compare the new ones to the old ones. The new uniforms seem thicker. The t-shirt material is also different.

Err....what did you mean by \"photos of most of the teachers were updated\"? :scratchhead: I thought only photos of the principal and vice principal were changed?

I saw now they have the contact sewn onto the new shirts. Last time..nothing at all.

New is thicker maybe bcos they are not wash as many times as that of the old ones....haaaa...haaaa. Seriously , do you really think they are thicker?
