      Definitely using different materials. The booklists from the 3 schools I checked out during the briefing were all diff. I too had assumed that all centers would be using the same books since they said that all centres would be doing same syllabus. Oh well... Maybe they just meant same skills taught but schools will have autonomy to decide how they want to teach it. 🤷

        I believe for txt ok they hv autonomy but teacher did inform DS that they will not complete the book as GEP materials will be use。in this case, GEP material will be standard.

              Yes, was asked to sign up online.

              It actually depends on whether your child has good time management. In DS's school, it needs to be approved by the teacher.

                  May I know wat is CLA and CEP? These acronymns are not familiar to me.

                    CLA-Chinese alive, CEP-computer enrichment programme

                    Science reading lists can all be borrowed from National library. The science teacher is very on. He keeps the parents up to date on classroom progress thru emails.
                    So far DS likes all his teachers n the Sch v much. In fact he adapts to the Sch very fast n very well. 🙂

                        i yet to see the science reading list. According to my DS, the teacher said Horrible Science should not be in the list.

                        glad ur DS adapts well. Mine also settled into new enviornment fast and already made his own best friends.

                        Cheers!
