My DS is with NCC and they are frequently required to skip lessons to attend activities outside school. He is required to attend a camp forge at NCC HQ from 8am till 5pm this Friday, effectively missing out all lessons. Does the school keep tabs or limit the number of hours/ times a student can skip lessons for CCA activities? I’m very concerned as CCA shouldn’t take priority over school work.
What do other parents feel, and what do u suggest I do? -
My DS is struggling with Maths and Science in Y2. The pace in RV seems to be too fast for her. For Maths, she’s generally unable to complete the test within the allocated time. Any recommendations? Y2 parents, how are your kids doing?

Hi Tango696, this Friday school is rndung at 11am due to AYLC event. Can it be this reason, thats why the NCC choose this day for the full day camp?
Hi MXYMum, I would suggest she arrange consultation time with the teachers after school which most of the teachers are very willing and helpful to teach extra or clarify his doubts. -
Thanks Daisy!

Welcome to the reality of IP schools...
All students in this IP scheme are supposed to handle both academic and CCA well...
Like a saying....they expect the students not only can SWIM but MUST ALSO FLY.....:scared:
Which means must be able to do more than the average students...
And within RV there are many China Students, who are extremely smart.... :skeptical:
Don't worry , your child should be able to cope....
By Year 5 the students are allowed to switch to a not so active CCA....
This is the life of IP students......
