Really?

zeemimi:

But i've heard of P1 students being sent back to Preschool at the beginning of the year because they just could not cope with P1. They do not even have the fundamentals of ABC 123.

:yikes:

Thanks Janet, for your prompt reply.


your daughter is fine, ok - she doesn't face any learning difficulty. Constant daily revision will help her to remember facts well.

i am thinking ... so far, how effective are those 'Allied Educators' in the primary schools ? what kind of help do they actually extend to help kids with dyslexia, speech delay, mild autistic, in mainstream?

They are there like counsellors to assist to mediate situation, but I do not think they conduct special lessons for the kids. That is why for kids with special needs, there might be need for parents to source for external help. My fren who has 2 special needs kids, send them to Dyslexia Association for additional lesson and engaged private tutor too. Parents of special needs kids can also apply for exemption for certain subjects if needed (eg. Chinese).

My gal’s class has a boy pretty weak, so the teacher has put 2 stronger kids beside him to help him. The teacher has also spoken to the mum and the mum engaged tutor for all subjects. She attended tuition with her boy, learned and reinforced his learning. So far showing improvement.

P1 only. So the tutor can cater to all subjects for the boy. 3 times a week + mum's coaching for homework. I think he is also attending an external Chinese course (either Berry or Eduplus, can't remember).

He has an elder brother in same sch too - not doing too well. Also home tutors for all subjects. Parents can't really teach them, and mum can only handle a little lower primary coaching.

Frankly speaking, a bit immuned, maybe recently quite busy with my work, so tat's why u see me \"disappear\"


After the GE boundaries issue, so happy with those that has put into the voluntary work not being wasted (even thou this may not guarantee a place). But now with this unexpected issue, again unfairness for those voluntary. Why can't decide to announce it before the school decided how many PVs to get or at least voluntary ppl are prepared for the worst. Is a bit too sudden news, but looks like only ME urggghhhhh.

There's still hope that the schools did take into account of the reduction in classes when they decided how many PVs to accept
