Actually more impt to see % of students getting above certain pts. What so great abt a school who produce one or two top scorers but the rest get below national average pts?

We hope the schools will also continue to make known the quality passes for each subject and % going into express.

If your dd passes her htm in year 4, then she doesn't have to take it during A levels so she can focus on other subj. That's the good thing.

3rd lang
For my son's sch, students are allowed to substitute the GPA for 3rd lang to replace a subj he didn't do so well in - maybe geog or history (except 4 core subj eng, chinese, math and sci cannot be replaced). But i'm not sure if this applies to all sch.

Hi, I am new here and DD took her PSLE this year.

She had obtained 3As and 1Astar and has an aggregate of 238, just wondering if she can enter either Nan Chiau High or Chung Cheng High(Main).
Pls help. Thanks alot!

Instead of being concerned about the individual students with the highest PSLE score and the schools they attend, I think it would be more productive for parents to look at statistics that would help them to make better decisions. For example, for parents looking for a primary school to send their kids to, do they want to send their kids to a particular primary school simply because that school happens to have produced a student with very individual PSLE score? or do they want to send their kids to a school that over the years has consistently produced good overall PSLE results? What is the relevance of a high scoring individual student to the education of your children? In that regards, I would like to highlight something about Nan Hua. If I'm not wrong, they have 80 students who scored at least 3A*, and 37% of their students score at least 250 this year. Just imagine, almost 40% of their graduating P6 students would be going to good schools. If you need to register your child for P1, won't a school like that be a strong pull factor?

Yes I agree; That should be the criteria

[lurline]

hi wanglongfeng,


agree with u. However, most schools do not share how many passes above 250.
