Congratulation to HGP!!
HGP is in the List of primary schools with at least one pupil with PSLE aggregate score of 275 or more (in alphabetical order of schools) according to the moe link http://www.moe.gov.sg/media/press/files/2009/11/infosheet-psle-2009.pdf
From the look at it, there are no longer good or bad school. Every school is capable to produce high scorer isn't it? -
totally agree!
though school environment is important, everything else depends on our own kiddos....

Hello everyone! My elder son was from HGP, he's in Victoria, going to Sec 3 next year. My girl is from HGP, she's the girl with 275! I must share with all parents that my 2 children were indeed very fortunate to study at HGP. My son helped out in the P6 kayaking expedition this year. He had so much fun that he would be going back to help out next year.peakpeak:

My girl had a wonderful form teacher. She taught them from P5. She was very dedicated, always giving them extra notes, encouragement and advice. Unfortunately, she was too ill to teach them when she fell sick in June. Mrs James was very thougtful to assign all the subject HODs to take the class. Of course, that meant that the HODs all had additional workload from July to Oct. Many thanks to the HODs!
Although my girl's teacher was sick, she made it a point to visit her students when she was better. She visited the class every morning during the PSLE to give them the good luck 'charm', chocolates. She made it a point to give the weaker students double good luck 'charm'.
The only day she could not make it was on the day of the science paper as she had to go for treatment, but she got her colleagues to give her students the chocolates.
She also went back to school to meet her students on 26 Nov. She was of course very proud of her students.
Many thanks to Mdm Goh from the bottom of our hearts, wishing you good health and happiness. -
Congratulation to you and your girl!! 275 is really well done! and thank you for sharing

I feel happy for my son who is with HGP as I strongly believe good school environment and value of the school is very important for a child.
Do you mind to share with the score of 275, which school is your daughter going next? -

My girl has been admitted to Raffles Girls' School (Sec) under the DSA, Talent Development Programme (Music).
The top scorer of HGP also went to RGS last year. With a score of 275, she was streamed into the Gifted Education Programme class in RGS.
Thanks for the concern, all the best to your son. Eh... which level is your son in? -

Phew![/quote]She's a girl, her mom's from China but her dad is a local I think. She's going to NUS High through DSA too. The 3rd in school, is a boy with 270. His sister came in 2nd last year with 274.
You'll be happy to know then that the top scorer in 2007 is a boy, 272, my husband's ex colleague.
Top scorer in 2006 is also a boy, 268, my son's ex yamaha music classmate.
If you notice, PSLE top scorers are mostly girls, as most girls tend to mature earlier, and are by nature neater, hence cutting down careless mistakes. But come o and a levels, it'll be a different story, most of the time.
I always believe that children are born like a blank piece of paper. How beautiful and colourful this piece of paper will turn out depends on how much effort the parents are willing to put in!
It's good for the school to stream, so that the better ones can progress faster, and the slow ones can learn at a slower pace to build a better foundation. And with a strong foundation, the late bloomers will have a better chance to succeed later in life too!
Now that your son is in the top 25%, aim for the top 10%, cos usually only the top 10% of the school cohort will go on to score 250 and above.
Good luck!
