      I do not know SV have top scholars until you mentioned. I am not actually aiming for top school, but a not so bad school that can meet up to PSLE standard. Correct me if I am wrong, my personal opinion that the kids scored very well in the school test, but unable to meet the PSLE standard, is no meaning to me.

      Honestly, I dun need my boy to be a scholar, just want him to enjoy and work hard in school.. and don’t lag behind.

      Hi..

      Hm.. I think all school.. or all Teachers are preparing the students for their first 'BIG' paper test in their life.. 😄 regardless whether is a neighbour school or not..

      My personal feel is as long all parties.. Teachers/students/parents are ready.. should be able to pass the PSLE... if a student can pass through the school papers, in my own opinion, should have no problem passing through the PSLE.

      Hmmmm. I think yes and no. After reading so many threads, I get the impression that students are being constantly tested to find out where they stand in the whole cohort.

      Once they have grouped the kids according to capabilities, they will prepare the kids base on the percieved capabilities. Meaning if the kid has the potential to do very well, then will expose the kid to questions that will enable him/her to go over certain band. If the kid is only average, then will prepare the kid to handle questions to a certain level and not expose the child to the really hard questions. It's kinda sad because late bloomers will suffer and it result in unnecessary stress for students, parents and even teachers.

      :offtopic:[/quote]That's sad but true.

        that PRC girl was 14 when she took the PSLE that yr .... it was like a Sec2 student taking PSLE again...

        Oh then it's not very fair right?

        She's PRC so entered the Singapore system a couple of years below so she could brush up on her English. That's the case with a lot of PRCs. It's not surprising to find that PRCs in Sec 1 are 14/15 years old.
