Since you said so, can you pls enlighten us? It simply doesn't make sense, what is the basis? The school doesn't even know the ability of the children prior to P1. As I said, it's totally non academic in the class allocation, maybe they use some other non-academic parameters of the kids. So don't imagine or read too much into it and cause unnecessary stress. What's the diff between A or J, kids perform well in all classes. The tops can come from any class as I have experienced.

The only common basis between students in one school and even other schools is the PSLE. So I don't even want to compare with kids from other schools since standards in the assessment/exam can be very different.

They have a way... That's why I find that it is not fair.. As I mentioned earlier..\"VERY CONFIDENTIAL\" :xedfingers:

Example the most basic things is that their spellings is different. Different classes have different standards of spellings. This is the most basic differences.

The spellings are the same for all classes, don't quite get what you mean. We have crossed check between parents, do you have substantial evidence to say so? Which P1 class is your kid, can you show us an example of one of the spelling with date? This is easy to check among us with kids in P1 this yr.[/quote]
My Dd this year is in primary 2. It is last years spellings. I just happened to came across the NCPS website last year under spelling lists(Unfortunately,Now I don't remember how I search) , I just remembered that it was different from my girl when she is in primary 1 last year.

The teachers ways/methods of teaching also different. From what I understand they go according to faster catch up students and slower catch up students. This is where they arrange our Dd , Ds in which classes.

U find that is it fair? Ok. ,If one is to think positively , some parents will think from above methods is good for their kids but however, I believes No parents wants their Dd , Ds to be posted under the last few classes (Being considers as slower students, Right? What rights they says our child is slower ,by going through other sources ...then place our kids in individual primary 1 classes?)

How can you compare different yrs. Of course it may be different. But for a particular yr, the spellings are the same for all classes. This shows the standard or demand of each class is the same. This yr, the spelling list is issued to parents quarterly in paper, not via NCPS website. All classes have the same spellings, for both EL & CL. Did you mixed up with something else?

Perhaps it's an outdated 1?
I rem my friend SOS me 4 help when her DS of a different class misplaced his P1 spelling list last year & I smsed her the words of the week. Never hear her complain given wrong set of words leh.

We sometimes even alerted each other abt typo errors in dictations & tingxie.

No in the same year. Yes, through lists issued to students. Just that I happened to be able to search through the website.

I think is up to individual parents to believes or not . No further comments.

I have received the letter from NCPS. This year no testing of the children as according to the admin staff. The class listed on the letter is the confirmed class next year 2012. I find it not fair , as I some how knew how it was being arranged to which class your DS or DD is suppose or not suppose to be... some how is very \"Confidential\"

Hi sc88, Your post making me very curious. My DD1 is not in A or B class. :nailbite: Can you please share how the classes are being arranged?
