In the report, the parent did say \"every child can be gifted\". Don't tell me it's really the boy's parent promoting the workshop?
This very \"in your face\" advertising I don't like leh. :roll:

The three boys follow a daily timetable which includes English, maths, science, Chinese, history and enrichment activities such as mental arithmetic lessons under the close watch of their mother, a former maths teacher at Hwa Chong Institution....\"

another Sheldon Kieran Tan

Sheldon already done some A level subjects, and scoring good marks I heard.

May be she skipped teaching pri maths and zoom into teaching just o level maths

Afterall, sloving maths using model are useless at sec level.

\"Any child granted exemption from compulsory education to be home-schooled has to attempt the Primary School Leaving Examination in four subjects at standard level. They must sit the exam again the following year if they do not meet the benchmark.\"


So the 9yr old boy haven't take PSLE?
But took O level liao?

quite normal

there is no prerequisite edu / academic cert to show before registering for the iGCSE exams

probably the 9 y/o treat it like just another of those NSW test
