Any idea RI students would need to attend O level exam for high chinese or express chinese, or have to attend both?

Those taking only o level Chinese will do their o level chinese at sec 4

Those doing HCL will take o level CL at sec 3 and HCL at sec 4

in RI , the classes are 1A, 1B, etc is it? Not 101, 102?


Are the GEPers group in the same classes together? blended with 270 and above scorers mainstream?

For Sec-1 this year...

1A & 1B are from Sports.

1C 1D 1E 1F 1G 1H 1I are from Mainstream (P6 Mainstreamers, I mean).

1J 1K 1L 1M 1N 1P 1Q 1R 1T are from GEP (P6 GEPpers) and top scorers from P6 Mainstream (>265).

ALL doing the same stuff (maybe except the Sport classes?). No difference between GEPpers & Mainstreamers in RI.

Can any parents verify the above data, please? Am not 100% sure... :oops:

That's different from RGS then.

you are right. but you can confirm this year got 18 classes in total ? what is the class size ? in the past was always 15 classes x 30 = 450 cohort size with the last 7 classes as GEP

yes no diff in curriculum in RI between GEP & mainstream

7 Mainstream + 7 GEP + 1 Sports.

This year, RI has 1 more Sport class and 2 more GEP classes, hence 18 classes..
7 Mainstream + 9 GEP + 2 Sports.

DS' class has 25 pupils. Not sure of other classes, but most probably less than 30 pupils per class. Can any Sec-1 parents verify the above data?
