normally result slips will be given around 12pm…should be able to go off before 1pm if no delays…good luck to all kids here…

Do you mind if the top 10 PSLE scorer be make known to public , or keep in secret ? MOE is reviewing whether to release the info to the Press.

I just wonder why, if my child is the top PSLE scorer, I will be so proud to let the whole world know and the kids deserved to be rescognised by their efforts too. They get it sorely by their own effort not by any bribery or any conspiracy.It’s should be a joy ! It’s not anything shameful ! Some parents complaint it might be too stressing to know. But why ?? We are not announcing the last 10 but the top 10. Like last year, I ask my DD to read about the news about the 2011 top scorers, their stories, how much time they put in,their effort. It really inspire my DD to put in more effort this year.
What’s your view ?

I am not bothered by whether the top scorers go public or private. Come to think of it, it might be good not to reveal so parents won't try to get their kids into those schools with top scorers. In a way less stress for parents when they register their kids for P1. Furthermore, Schools wont be competiting with each other to get the publicity.

I am not in favour of publishing names of top students...this would prevent parents of would-be P1s to swarm to those schools. If HSK wants 'all schools are good schools' to be practised, then all the more top students and their schools should NOT be made known.

The other reason is to prevent tuition centers from advertising, claiming those top students attended their centers.
