CKS,
Thank you

Really? I'm not aware of such a programme? I believe such programmes are optional after school-enrichment activities which parents pay for, not built into the school curriculum.//Moderator's note: Most creative/useful prediction Award
My prediction is Nanyang Primary School because
2) they have very good enrichment programmes (ie Lorna Whiston)

My prediction is also Nanyang Primary School because:
1) it has a most dynamic principal (unfortunately leaving for Nanyang Girls in Dec 09)
.
2) it has the highest number of dedicated, motivated and loyal PVs who put in the same or even more effort in the education of their kids in NYPS :rahrah:
3) it promotes both moral & academic excellence, thereby offering the perfect environment in nurturing a TOP student
4)last but not least, the kiasu spirit and index is probably one of the highest, or if not the highest in town, hence it gets my vote for being the best able sch to product the TOP kid. :celebrate: -

My prediction is Catholic High School because their secondary school did http://news.asiaone.com/News/Education/Story/A1Story20090112-114068.html so the primary school is motivated to do well this year.
But hor ... usually girls perform better than boys in PSLE. :roll: -
My prediction is Nanyang primary School.
Their school vision is to be a World Class Primary school hence they can produce TOP PSLE scorer too! -

Ya. Many big wigs' children here. Even a concert hosted by the school has performers like Zoe Tay (probably PV hours for her son), Steffanie Sun (??) & Chen Siew Huan (her kids are there, one taken PSLE this year). Politician's kids - many. Good genes? Probably. But also lots of $$ to groom their kids.//Moderator's note: Most creative/useful prediction Award
My prediction is Nanyang Primary School because
3) many political officials' children are there, and hence the children who inherit the good genes are more likely to be cream of the crop.

I predict the top student will come from Catholic High.
Why ?
Because listening to my friends with kids there, Cat/High must surely have among the most boastful and kiasu parents in Spore. -
My vote goes to NYPS for the following reasons:
(1) Same principle as last year, history may repeat. :lol:
(2) Past few years records showed top students are from GEP, NYPS has the most number of GEP students, so chance is higher.
(3) Last but not least, NYPS has a lot of Kiasu parents who are Stay-At-Home and highly educated since their DH are garmen pp. -

On Catholic having the most kiasu parents- I met a Korean lady in June whose kid is in P1 this year. She said that many mummies often ask her son about his marks constantly he is apparently one of the top kid in class. She told me that she was so STRESSED… and to keep up with good results, she sends her son to learning lab, and also for pte chinese tuition with a NYPS teacher.
Of course, she does not represent all Catholic High parents but is probably a good example of kiasu index there.
