My boy in P6 GEP this year, teacher will try to complete all the P6 syllabus within the first two terms and will start to do revision from Term three onwards. There will be a lot of revision papers to do after that and will be very busy.

Hi, when will P6 start practising P6 exam papers? Normally the school will give out which year papers to them? my son is going to P6 next year.
Thinking should i buy 2012 school exam papers for him

We are awaiting GEP Results but was offered admission to river valley and Stamford primary is also happy to enrol us. Any suggestion??

Almost half a day spent at IRS presentation this morning.


This is a real eye opener to see these P5 kids showcase their presentations.
I am impressed on their time management and the tremendous effort they have put in. Importantly, these kids can articulate well and the confidence level in speaking to the public without fail.

Having spoken to the P5, most of them feel that there are more projects as compared to P4. SS is one of the time consuming projects.

For parents of P4 currently, glad that our children have made it that far for this whole year and we still have to embrace another 2 more years to go…

Let’s lean on one another with support and encouragement to drive our children to greater heights !

Thanks Gifted Gem. The overall results not out yet, just the SA2. Very glad that DS2 had done better this time round as he had performed quite badly in CA2. Just hope that this time can help pull up his score. Good luck to your DD too.

Hi, My DS just got offered a place in GEP. We are now quite undecided mainly cos DS does not show a cut above the rest among those who are selected for GEP in his class. We are not sure if he really has what it takes to do GEP. Would like to hear from the experienced parents here.


Then, there’s selection of school. Among all the 9 schs, I like ACS but I stay in the west. Does the choice of sch matter? What to look out for when choosing the sch.

TIA

Hi, I understand that there are many project assignment in GEP and students are expected to pick up the mainstream syllabus independently and quickly. It seems like GEP requires the students to be highly independent and able to self-discipline. So if one is very playful and not able to manage his time well, is GEP still a viable path? Hope to hear some advice from the experienced parents.


Thanks…
