More like the breaking news revolves around PSLE results. I have just started to follow the discussion even though I believe by time time our kids sit for PSLE, some things could have changed. For better or for worse, no one knows. The more I read, the more I don’t know ie DSA, HMT, SAP sec school, IP vs IB … so many nuts and bolts, and I am surrounded with friends with older kids!! Think my listening skills are poor.

[CayennePepper]

I just read it as well and just keep an open mind. That is true, it changes every year and this year, the number of students are much higher?

I have friends who have kids who scored well as well whose kids scored 20X range. More bothered about whether DDs can pursue their passion past primary school. I know I was bummed out when I couldnt pursue my pet sport in sec sch, misery. Unless DDs show some sudden spark high score than IP might step in if not it is just A levels all the way. I am fine with polytechnic route so prefer if they opt for O levels.

Think I am more concern about them going wayward during teenage years regardless of school

Hmm more of temples, monkeys, trekking and nature

Balancing DDs :rotflmao:

Visited an elementary school in one of the village and surprisingly, they have 5hrs of school which is paid by the government but for their level 5/6 exams, the parents paid extra to the teacher to teach their kids privately in the school. We were there when the teaching was happening.

So it depends on the financial means of the parents, if they could afford, the kids has more hours learning thus scoring better at the exams.

DDs were shocked at the school grounds and appreciated their own primary school.
