2011 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

Hi Summer70
Your nephew is lucky then. or maybe appealed with CCA or perhaps they considered affiliation. Initially I thought missed by one point may still stand a chance, but somehow things don't happen that way. Just have to accept it and move on. Appreciate your sharing

Verysuperkiasu:
May I know if it's just one particular teacher or most or all of the teachers????[/quote]Hi verysuperkiasu, I have no idea but I believe it's definitely not applicable to all the teachers. But these days, schools have high expectations from their teachers and this result-orientated environment could rob the teachers and pupils of their moral values.zhenx:
[quote=\"Rice kiasu\"]Went to RI today, they rejected all DSA appeals due to MOE. Sigh ! Cannot go to RI lo :gloomy:
Do not sulk over your 'misfortune'. This could be a blessing in disguise. My nephew, an ex-rafflesian, who managed a score of 267 some years ago had the following comments about RI: We were like outcasts in the eyes of the teachers. Competition in the school was so stiff. The teachers' pets were the Chinese scholars, some GEPers and the superbrainies. It's very frustrating that every effort you put into the projects were graded as sub-standard compared to those fellow classmates. The worst was we were accused of being lazy. At a tender age of 13-16, some of us soon lost our confidence and self-esteem as we used to be the precious top-scorers in our primary schools. Well, such is the harsh reality of our local educational system, agree?
So the next time you see a rafflesian, he could be desperately struggling within. So do not envy. Look ahead and enjoy the journey in your :heresmyfish: new secondary school.
For eg., in my DD's former primary sch (best class), her form teacher was very protective of the top students and refused to share their well-written compositions with other classes. Somehow, they were released and the pupils involved wrote a complaint letter to the principal. The matter was settled when the principal intervened and inculcated the value of sharing. Those top pupils were selfish and their actions were supported by their teacher). You must have already witnessed many cases of such practices among some primary schools. By the way, those top pupils have since joined the Raffles families and I hope they will emerge patriotic citizens to help our society and not a bunch of selfish adults that will only create a wider social gap in future. -

Everyone has been talking about more than 40% of NYPS kids are in the top 10% of the PSLE cohort. Any one knows the figure that exclude the GEP classes? How many % get into the normal?
