chief posted once on what's required for P1. After going thru P1 with dd1, I agreed with him. Here's the link.

To add on fr experience with dd1.
For maths, if cannot count to 100, then must clear 50. 100 is only covered in P2.
Multiplication and division is term 3-4. Time I think was term 3.
Eng
I do not set a reading level. I try to increase reading proficiency as much as I can. So for ds, the aim is to complete Peter and Jane series by this yr.
Penmanship is important.
For dd1's school able to write 5 - 8 sentences for a topic is good enough.
Chi term 1-2 is HYPY.
Reading again the same principle of reading as Eng. For chi I use si wu kuai du as guide. -

ds' kindy started k1 term 3phtthp:
any K1 child whose kindergarten already started on han yu pin yin in K1 Term 4 (2012) ?
no. but enrichment class yes. -
DD2 will start her Chinese enrichment on 8 Dec...
Hope she understand :roll: -
From dd1’s experience kindy and primary school are sufficient to teach hypy

DD2's CC never teach HYPY and she only can recognize simple words and seldom speak in Chinese -

Asked my two older kids (rising p4 and p2) to advise ds2.actually, what do our 2007 needs to know before going P1 in 2014 ?
(1) read - in what level
(2) write - words only ?sentences only or like essay ??
(3) speak chinese and english.. fluently ? chinese may be a prob for mine.
(4) maths - what needs to know ? add/sub/mul ??
(5) social skill- thk most can socialise..
They said:
- need to be able to copy FAST from whiteboard/visualizer
- need to LISTEN to teachers
- need to FOLLOW their instructions
- need to ASK questions if in doubt
- need to learn to work effectively in groups
- need to remember to bring his water bottle and lunchbox home or mommy will :nunchuk:
For reading, I'd say they also need to be at the level where they can, independently, comprehend worksheet instructions.
For writing, enough to (1) answer open-ended comprehension questions; (2) write 3 to 5 lines for each picture in compositions. But that depends on how early your school starts on compositions.
Don't forget there's also show and tell.
For those doing CL, don't worry too much about hypy. My kids' kindergarten only started that in Term 3 of K2, and they didn't have any problems with it in p1. They don't have CL enrichment either. -
Oh ya, forgot about show and tell.
The kiddos have S&D, from kindy. I find that it helps.
