My ds in Ortus. The teacher says the requirement is A* for chinese and above 260 to offer the LEP.

Which class is your DS? Did he take up any 3rd Lang? Just wondering if those took up 3rd Lang will not have time for LEP.
Mine also hv A* and abv 260.
Or a distinction in hcl is also a criteria? Mine only Merit.

when were the students offered LEP? i didnt even hear my ds mention

They'll intro the consortium directors, key teachers, the curriculum, assessment mode & CCAs. Last yr there was a tea reception for the individual consortium before the symposium. Some parents take this opportunity to speak to their child's form teacher. If you miss the symposium, no worries cos' the symposium presentation slides will be uploaded on the HCI website.

Mine also Merit. My ds take up a third language too. That's why I am wondering shld he take up the LEP. He is also going for sports CCA so if the sports CCA take up 3 times a week, a day for 3rd lang, then he won't have time for other things like project etc.

Sori for any :? caused. Just received SMS from ds that he has been offered LEP.
I m not sure if it will clash with any other activity? As well as your concerns abt drop out mid way & exam. however I understand such prog will further help in CL learning.

Any idea if RS is on for whole yr or only for 1 semester?[/quote]May I know what is RS.
