FYI from MOE website >> of the total of 45,261 Primary 6 pupils who sat for PSLE 2011, 97.4% are assessed as suitable to proceed to secondary school. In terms of course eligibility, 62.9% are eligible for the Express course, 23.1% for the Normal (Academic) and 11.4% for the Normal (Technical) course.

No. Out of the question. I think they are still too young to be able to handle situations and when they are out alone...how to trust that everything will be ok? -
Our focus was all on Math this term. DS grades for Math up 12 marks to 75. First time in 9 months we see a 70+ for Math.

Yup.. please upload the difficult questions. You may want to do a google search on PSLE questions. I remembered some students actually typed out the PSLE questions immediately after the PSLE paper on that day. The Maths papers on 2010 is relatively easy. As such, some kids can finish the paper in one hr. It is very important to teach the kids to use the remaining time to check on their answers. The skills of checking for checking careless mistake is important when the paper is easy. For the 2009 Maths, a few questions are really difficult. The kids have to read the questions and understand the 'underlying' meaning. The question on sweets and chocolate - one has to understand that if the question says A gives half the sweets to B, it means A and B have the same number of sweets in the end. For the 2011 paper, what i heard from my nephew is that the questions are not very tough but tedious. He rushed through the last few sums. So if yr child is already good, do train him for speed and accuracy.Yes yes yes... we must upload the difficult questions. Piggy will tell us from her experience if PSLE is easier or more difficult!!
:please: :please: :please:
I will upload when we get the stuff back.
Hi chen, my ds1 barely passed one of his chinese test.
I think it is time for me to do something. If not, his chinese result will just be going down each year and each test. Yes, I will remember to pray too.

Is good to know that the teachers are more \"kancheong\" than the parents. Perhaps the teachers have a set of KPI to achieve too:)
YES! They push our kids so that they will meet their KPIs.
They set killer papers to ensure parents freak out, help the kids even more, so that they will meet their KPIs!

Piggy... if I upload the questions then people will know which school my son is in... and which class. Since I have complained so much about his English teacher, I am not keen to have that generally known. Can I PM you for your email and email you?
