      [quote]Wow!! Remedials in 1st month of P1- bit too early I think

      I thought so too,I was informed end of Jan that her C/L was not good enuff, so i had to bring her twice a week in the morning. By the end of the year she took the exam for higher chinese n was selected. Not bad, I told myself....from remedial to higher chinese, ๐Ÿ˜„ Shortly after she reached P2, I was asked to bring her for remedial again.This time it was not for C/L but english. :!: The teacher looked at her p1 marks (she scored 93 for SA2)... told my grl that her marks did not justify remedial,she told me this was to enable her to score higher.(nice way of putting it) Seems like the teachers dnt just look at the marks alone but overall. I guess early remedials paid off after all. My girl now score highest for chinese n has maintained well for english.[/quote]Hi moonee

      Looks like present P quite ambitious and driven. Poor teachers. Previous one seldom stressed out the teachers. Stress usually passed on to parents.

              It's ACE Day! So it'd be a mass exercise thingy for them. Think there's going to be some concert as well. She's bringing her schoolbag to school though ๐Ÿ˜›

                  Someone posted in another thread that there was an article in STโ€™s forum page on Sat that a P3 teacher in RGPS punished the girls by pulling their hair, tweaking their ears, and hitting their heads with their Math books? Did anyone read that article? Is it common in the school? OMG!!


                  Andaiz, yah my girl is bringing her whole big bag to school today tooโ€ฆ

                    :!: :!: :!: That sounds like MY Moral Education teacher when I was in primary school....add the rapping knuckles with wooden ruller too :x

                    Haven't seen that article, but would have thought that the MOE would have outlawed Capital Punishment in this generation! Shocking indeed! Will read it when I get home....how could that have happened?!

                    And RGPS better have a good response man!

                        Yeah, Dharma....take heart, you get your present on Father's Day ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        Thought the P sent out the circular about no gifts? Her art teacher didn't even want a card (BTW they made a Teachers' Day card during art lesson)
                        Mine spent Friday night doing up the rest of the cards...then Saturday writing them :roll:

                        Actually, you can tell how much they like each of these teachers by the design and effort. :oops:
