Janet… if I remember correctly, the thread you created was recently merged with VKS2010’s "2012 PSLE Discussions and Strategy" thread.

Hi tinkfirst,

Thanks.
There are many dedicated mummies here, and some are full time working mums too. It's really amazing how they can work full time and yet coach kids after work. That's an amazing feat :salute:

Well, SA2 is over. I'm so relieved & happy. Now is recovery period till 18 Nov. :rahrah:

A friend asked me this question - \"What happens to kids who don't pass their PSLE??\"


Seriously I don't know. Does anyone knows?

If my information is still accurate, you can only repeat if you fail your English. Please do not think that if you get less than 150 (out of max 300 for T-score) means you fail. You can still proceed to Normal Academic / Tech, depending on how low your marks are.

Those who failed 3 times or do very badly (50 / 300) may go to Northlight to pick up some vocational skills. After 4 years, some can still proceed to ITE.

last year lowest t-score was 43

oh.. just saw this thread! dd will be doing PSLE in 2012 too!! and my biggest move is I got my blessings from my boss to allow me to work part-time next year!! :rahrah:

So i will have more time to spend with my girls.. ya, planning what are the good enrichment classes.. currently she is having private tuition. I hope I will be there to provide 'needs' and not to stress out my daughter

You are lucky to have an understanding boss! Good arrangement.

James Ang:

SA2 results will be out after this week's exam. Review weak areas and work on them to prepare for PSLE 2012 which is less than 11 months from now. All the best in SA2 results.

Yup, SA2 results are out. Have to work doubly hard to achieve better results starting from Nov. Too late to do so when school reopens. Many parents with kids going to P6 going Popular now...including yours truly bcos desperate.

No wonder I can't find it lah. It was merged. I prefer to find threads under the respective section like P5, P6. Easier to find,

hi all


Now that they are in P6, will you reckon it’s a good idea to teach ahead before they are taught in school? cos usually I prefer the kids to be taught in school and tuition / enrichment is more for them to do revision or ask any questions if they catch in class…

But now that they are in P6, is it a good idea for them to know before they lesson? perhaps they will absorb faster and more time to revise and practise for the exam… especially for subjects like Math.

What you do think?
