What is the difference between META and HA?

Is META a new program?

If I am not wrong, I have been lead to believe that the following is a breakdown of the available

- GEP
- META
- HA (high ability)
- MA
- LA

Crème de la Crème will be the GEP

[thankgod]

[quote=\"Atan\"]Any parents of current META prog P4 kids.


Would appreciate very much if you can share the experience of your kids in such classes. Do you see any difference in comparison with mainstream HA classes?

Thanks in advance.

2nd that call.

Got to decide META by Monday!

At present, I don't see the benefit. All non-core subjects and hoping that the \"magical dust\" will rub off from GEP students to these META students? That's dreaming right?

Or am I wrong to think of META like that?

Please advise ...

Hi, the man subject that next yr's META will do with GEP classes is GEP HCL and it is much more demanding n difficult than the mainstream HCL (one parent told me it is 40% compre, 20% vocab & 40% compo). At the end of the day, META kids will do the HCL and CL for PSLE, so I wonder what is the benefit of stressing kid out with GEP HCL while not being able to do SS and other core subjects.[/quote]Faint. Only HCL ...

What is MA and LA?

So would it be correct to say the students in META would be or should be of higher ability than those in HA?

Mainstream or GEP?

This is so stressful…can imagine my DS will not be in any of the GEP…HA…LA…and blah blah

Anyone has kids in this year P4 META class? Are the students in META & GEP being placed in the same class? Or GEP is a stand alone class?
