All About GEP

[Zann]

Herbie:

I heard from my dd that some parents expect their kids to achieve 85% even for common test. eg. the kid for scored like 34/40 for english and maths etc.


Otherwise their parents would scold them and some kids dun even dare to get the parents to sign the CT paper.

Sigh! Being in GE is already quite tough and the kid needs to take the stress from their parents.

Any P5 GE parent got back the Science expt paper or score already? How was it? My ds has not been told of anything about Sc expt yet. Ds din do well in Eng this time. Hcl 1 mark was deducted due to his 草书 for his corrected word. I looked at it, and find it not that 草 wat, just 1 stroke more 草 a bit only also must deduct 1 mark. 1 mark out of 60 is almost 2 marks. The marker is so so strict, not sure if this is the standard across the board. Or may be he/she dislike my ds :rant: Is that how some studetnts loose marks and fall below 85% ? :slapshead: :slapshead: They had begun Invest math practice, again can't bring home so dunno wat they do. But ds said no 7 island or 9 bridges leh...

ya ...I agree with you... :roll:

Poor kids!! Parents should then get partial blame for overlooked and let the ds or dd results slip. Hahaha!!

I blame myself first if my dd's result slip. I told myself i should have anticipated this and that. My believe \"if a student fail, the teacher has to reflect himself/herself first before blaming the student\". hehehe

Comfy,
Did you have the opportunity to take the P3 GEP Screening test? If so, may be they lost your paper. :evil:

It is P6. Something to do with some barcode thingy. If you guys really interested, i can share the actual assignment. I keep it for momento - a P6 assignment to be solved by a PHD holder. Xiao!! Apparently all my dd classmates cant do either. My dd has to teach them all after she got the solution from my relative. :slapshead:

don't have such opportunity but always tell my dd in my moment of desperation that I should be in gep instead of her. hee...hee....an old adult doing P4 gep. Some of the stuffs esp math look like jc math? and the SS too. For math paper 1, I already has problems solving them in the required timeframe.

Hi lynn2010,

Regarding counselling for students right, i am not sure how the teacher counselor do it. But IMHO, if you think your kid need counseling, it would be best if the parent can talk to the teacher and highlight to her abt your concern and worry. From there probably they can tackle the problem more effectively.... By the way i think the counsellor duty is counsel those Ge kids who are too stress up or depressed due to not able to cope with the programme I suppose ... :roll: ..
