      My DS's kindy told me his classmates know the next level work liao from home and suggest I do the same. I told her I can't because I have 3 kids and the teacher must teach.

      If able to teach at home, what for I pay teachers to teach in school.

      Some are taking the term partnership too far :mad:
      :yikes: :yikes: :yikes: DD's CC doesn't say this.. which I am thankful for, or is it because they are CC and not kindy?

        usually P4 - P6 are AM or morning , thought usually when P6 they put in extra hours....she put in all her time I guess practising..? but it paid off šŸ˜„
        Not to frighten you, preparation for PSLE work starts in P5. Science is taught from P3, and in PSLE, it will be tested from P3 - P6.

          DS has a teacher for each subject, and one of his teachers told me that during the PTM. I'm trying to decide if I should let the P know.......

              I am braveheart ,not frightened at all :rotflmao: (joking :p)

              I would say preparation starts P4.. i keep seeing parents at the maths place, talking about how their kids start performing badly when they starts P4 and keeps pressuring the tuition teachers to give extra lessons... :scared:

                Same here, for teaching, they have separate subject teachers. DD's chinese teacher part times as tuition teacher so she says she has everything covered for them for P1 so dont need enrichment.

                Same thing for english and maths.... they even told me if I am worried, I shouldn't be and not paid extra outside...

                Hmm, maybe you can ask other parents if they had the same comment?

                      Since you are braveheart, I feel the preparation starts at P3. Here's my rationale, P1 is bridging, P2 is foundation for primary level, P3 starts building liao. So I feel should start at P3.

                      For maths, P4 is the foundation for P5 and P6, so if at P4, the foundation is not solid, the child will face problems in P5 and P6.
