From what I hear, it's not true. On the registeration day they were told to do some work and was assessed and put into.respective classes based on that. My son's friend from another class said that their Teacher said their class is the best P2 class. I believe it because he always have more work, even their spelling have 'extra' sentences or words. He told he scored 130/100 because Teacher gave extra'!From what I know P1 and P2 are not put into classes based on academic results.
I think it's best to contact your son's form teachers (from his previous and current class) to understand the situation. -
hi workingmummy,
Class alphabets are just short for the name - D = Diligence. I believe even in P3 onwards where there are ‘best’ classes, it doesn’t go by A,B,C - the alphabets will change.
DS1 told me that he also has to go to another class for the exams. Not sure why they are playing 大风吹, but figured it may have to be for purpose of exams. -
Checked with DS . All his classmates are spread out to other classes, only a few left in his class. Kids from other classes going to his class. And seems like kids are randomly picked.

I think they do stream the children based on certain subjects. During p1 n p2, my gal had to move to another class for Chinese lessons. And for math, she had extra class once fortnightly to do enrichment math worksheets. Now in p3, she is in the top class, no more moving/shifting around. And I was told they will stay in the same class for next yr p4 too.
-
Good to hear she is in top class. Yes. Ds ever tell me before that there are some classmates who have to gmove around.
-
From what I know, from P2 onwards, there’s the STRETCH prog. It’s to help students who fail and also for students who are very academically inclined.

bumbum,
In your opinion, are the maths enrichment materials from school comparable to those found in maths enrichment centers?
TIA
