Some time before the mid-year break, there was a letter from the school saying that due to the construction, there will be no CA2 for P5 (only), and SA2 will start week 2 of term 4.
But when I looked at the school calendar at http://www.nyps.moe.edu.sg/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=22&Itemid=29, I don't see any CA2 dates.
Have I mistaken that there will be CA2 for P3 & 4? I certainly am not the only one because a few of us parents were grumbling that CA2 will be so close to SA2! -
BigD, I think the letter says week 5 of term 4 for SA2, not week 2. Don't scare me leh...

-
BigDevil, I think there is no CA2 for all levels this year.
Busymom, SA2 EL/CL paper 1 will be in term 4 week 2, EL/CL oral will be in week 3, other papers will be in week 5. All dates are in the school calendar.

You are indeed correct. DD's form teacher replied my email yesterday and confirmed that there will be no CA2. But the letter was quite misleading. It sounded like only P5 doesn't have CA2.
@Busymom, you can see term 4's calendar http://www.nyps.moe.edu.sg/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=23&Itemid=30, and it's like what 8228 mentioned. Paper 1 on week 2 (but only EL paper 1 for your DD since CL paper 1 for P3 - P5 only), oral on week 3, and the rest on week 5. -
8228:
Week 2?!!BigDevil, I think there is no CA2 for all levels this year.
Busymom, SA2 EL/CL paper 1 will be in term 4 week 2, EL/CL oral will be in week 3, other papers will be in week 5. All dates are in the school calendar.
Alamak, DD may be having some music exam during that period... what if timing happens to clash? Forego which one? :slapshead: -

I also thought that it is only the P5 who will not have CA2... Like that means a lot of weightage is going to be on SA2? :nailbite:You are indeed correct.

But then again, we are just talking about paper tests, right? I remember under the holistic assessment, there are a few tests here and there in term 3 which are to be included in the whole year's result. :? -

i think this is the only time they bring forward the exams .... to cater for the preparation of new building work
Haiz, and the letter was so misleading like what BigD says... either we need to brush up our comprehension skills or the school needs to brush up its wxxxx skills. :skeptical: -
Hi everyone.
I recently got selected as a Parent Volunteer for NYPS (2013 P1 registration, 2014 starter). I hope you don't think it presumptuous of me to post in this thread, but I figure all other PVs will also check in here.
The PV selection and allocation process was a bit unsettling: I suppose the uncertainty is good prep for next year's P1 selection. -
