This year NHPS did well in the PSLE.

Top student 276, among the top 17 in the country.
Top 10 all above 270.
Almost 40% with 250 and above, very near NYPS on this.

Do you know how the performance on average between GEP, twining class Vs other best class?

They listed the names of the top 10 students on the school website.
GEP and twinning classes provide the majority of them.

Hi,

I am enrolling my DD next yr for NHPS 2013 P1. (Phase 2A- I am ex-NHPS student)
Can anyone share P1 booklist? Just wanna find out what kind of syllabus they are doing. Please PM me for my email address. Thanks a million.

I have a few questions here, not sure if anyone can advice:
1) How is the student care ? What is the operating hours?
2) I stay nearby Pioneer MRT. Thinking if I should get a car, take MRT or take school bus. Which is less time consuming considering enrichment and etc cos I am a working mummy.
3) What kind of enrichment should I enrol her now to give her some foundation/preparation before getting into NHPS.
4) P1 need to take higher chinese for NHPS right? How can we better prepare her for that?

Thanks in advance for the advices !!!

Hi Maywong,

For what i know, NHPS is teaching HCL since P1 (correct me if im wrong). :roll:
As for enrichment, it depends on the parents and child. (im kaisu) Nowadays, Car r very xpensive (but its more convinient to travel). :evil:
As for the BASC at NHPS, u may look at their website.

I think it is because it has only one twinning class instead of two since last year.

From what I know : the P6 twinning class this year is divided into 2 tag classes 6 tag 1 and 2 and 2 gep classes (6 tag 3 and 4)for english, maths and science. For Social Studies and Chinese there will be three classes, 6 GJ and K, and the tag pupils are mixed with the gep pupils.

Is there any advantage for tag class in term of PSLE result?

He is learning a lot of history , geography, general knowledge in social studies, picking up computer skill in CEP lesson etc.

It's the best of both world. You do mainstream math, science and English, probably at a more advance level compared to the rest of the classes, but take same exams in these subjects.
The they join and take same CL/HCL as the GEP kids.
They take the GE social studies exam too even though it's not graded.

If you stay near the school, school bus may not be that good an idea.
They really pick up the kids very early.
My kids used to take the school bus but eventually we realized that they could have an extra half an hour of sleep if they walk to school.
Saved some money too.

Timing after school is OK.
In our estate (Faber Hill) initially there were enough kids to fill one school bus.
But a lot were put off by the timing eventually and stopped using it.
