My DD is in P2 and recently had an English Practice Test. She said it is very difficult and came back with poor results. She did say that she was very nervous because it was a spring test and the teacher wants all who scores below 40 to have daily revision with her during reccess. I am just wondering if other P2 classes also had this same test and is the test that difficult? I have yet to see the paper but I went through another earlier practice paper and the standard is really quite high for P2, many tough questions and difficult words.

sunflowersmurf,

My son got back a english practice paper yesterday. total score is 50. is this the one you are referring to? u aware if the marks is counted for end of the year?

My daughter's teacher let the class bring home to do as homework.

Dear TNS parents,


need some guidance on P1 registration here...

My son will be registering this year for Primary school and because my alma mater is Red Swastika, and my husband's is Tao Nan School, we can choose to send my boy to either school through phase 2A1... and we are faced with a dilemma of which school to send my son to.

For those of you parents who already have children in Tao Nan school, can you share with me on how you find the school, and if given a choice, which of the 2 schools will you choose (honestly), what are the things you like and dislike about TNS?

I really want a school where there is a balanced focus on developing the whole child, not a skewed overtly focus on academics, though of course academics should still be good. Does the school expects all the children to already know their stuff (like what I have heard alot about on the schools these days, and how they expect parents to have already send the children for enrichment classes). I have heard alot about TNS being very academic, and my sisters who sent her 3 kids there (and was also a school HOD) said that she finds some other neighbourhood primary schools' teachers and programmes even better than TNS... please don't get offended, but that was her opinion...

Thank you, and I would really appreciate any sharing.. Registration is next Friday!

Just find it strange that why your sister still sent all 3 of her children to TNS if she truly believe some other neighbourhood schools' teachers and programme are better than TNS. Isn't she contradicting herself? :?
