It was really :yikes: at P3 & P5. So unreasonable :siao: . I was really sad when I recieved my P3 (&P5) grades.PlatypusMeowMeow:
Yes, P5 is difficult because they prepare the students for PSLE next year
The first hurdle or depth at P3 was shocking...fortunately, we managed to recover. Since the beginning of this year, I've yet to recover from the shock of seeing son's results drop so badly for Eng, Chinese and Math (he flunked twice, CA1/SA1). Can you advise any way to improve ?
Your advice is definitely appreciated. Thanks.
Anyway, maybe you can try asking your son's teacher for advice. I'm not an expert at this

UNFORTUNATELY, my son's teachers are not very forthcoming with advice. I've had near-clashes with his form teacher :mad:
Just before his CA1, I asked her what will be tested for Science...she didn't reply me. So I asked again and got a sickening reply from her. Apparently, I am not the only parent who got sh!@ from her. My son told me NEVER to ask her anything again. -

Aiyo, so unreasonable. Even though I haven't encountered anyone like that, sometimes I really resent schoolteachers for that. :mad: There's totally, TOTALLY nothing wrong with asking those questions. You should report this to the school principal. :stompfeet: -
Hi PlatypusMeowMeow,
Forget about the principal...no better. :censored:
I'm very happy IJ TP principal is warm and approachable. She is also willing to lend a listening ear to parents. -

I totally agree. Mrs Tan is very warm and motherly. However, she still drives me crazy. :razz:Hi PlatypusMeowMeow,

Wow. Are the teachers in ur son's school so :clubmyself: ? -

Yes, I experienced a 'school culture shock' since beginning of this year.

Daughter's teachers and principal are so likeable while those in son's school are the exact opposite...except his Chinese teacher. -
OMG, then it must be very difficult.

What to do ? Take the SA1 Science for eg. I didn't know what topics would be tested. So I emailed her twice as I didn't get any reply...needed to plan revision time-table urgently. You know what she did ? She made him stand up in front of whole class and repeat after her as to what topics will be tested :mad: That is how sickening she is. -
Do they give a list of topics together with the exam dates? Anyway, the Science topics can be found in Science guides that are available at bookstores like popular.

Yes, the list of topics will come but that means it's 2 weeks before the exam dates. Too late already.
Anyway, now I know P5 Science CA/SA will cover everything from P3.
Was telling my son to finish his education and get out of the school. I've enough :stompfeet:
