GiftedGem:

Dagong / toxic 118, did I hear it correctly that yr DS are banded to their performance for posting to P5? DD's tr informed that they mixed the classes so as to have more networking exposure with others.

Yes, there will be some movement between the classes. The details will only be known when the school reopen.

We received the booklist the week before school closed. Literature book TBC. Shaping Maths is the textbook but I didn't buy because DS2 said no need, this year he never even touch the P4 ones that I had purchased for him.

DS2 was told they will change their classmates next year but they have class ranking for top 4 students, so they have a 1st in GEP, 2nd in GEP & so on.... And each given a certificate & trophy. However, the certificate just states that the students are among the top 4 students wo the actually ranking, the actually ranking was announced during the prize giving ceremony.
