The weightage should be indicated in student handbook, unless its changes again. For streaming from p3 to p4, only the core subjects are included. In P3, they may separate the higher ability Chinese students from those not, but they all take the same paper, there isnt a subj called HCL in exam, only CL. I think P4 is the same, if I remember correctly.

The main diff btw p3 & 4 is - Maths class is streamed to best 4 and the rest.

Thanks for the clarification. So starting P4, they'll have math banding?

Yup. Math banding starts in P4. only those who got above 90% in P3 SA2 math can get into M1 class.[/quote]I think must be at least 95% or 96% to be in M1, because my DS had 93%, still M2.

Yes. My ds low 90s also in M2. And I think Maths banding only for the top 3 classes.

Thanks Mrs Bongz and FQW!


Looking at the moxie list, it does seem like the MT standard is pretty high…having a hard time trying to make him learn now…understand other classes have to learn the whole 6…

That's very high. Which level is your child in? Must be a strong cohort.

Actually it depends on the performance of the cohort. They just take the top 40 for M1. So if the top 40 means 91%, it will be 91%. If it is a draw, they will look at whole year result. My son said from P4 to P5 last year, the M1 cut-off point was only 89%.

P4 this year. Yah, could be a strong cohort, as last year p3 they set the record for most number of students to get through round 1 of GEP as well as into GEP.

For this yr's P2, shoud be based on \"holistic assessment\" [a series of mini-tests from T1-3] plus SA2. In terms of weightage, sch should be updating P2 parents in due time, hopefully soon, to avoid a repeat of last year's debacle.


Last yr, JRLam & I witnessed a very entertaining tennis match between P & (some) Ps.

The weightage should be indicated in student handbook, unless its changes again.

Thanks FQW & JRLam.
Yes, indicated in student handbook as
P2: 30%(HA in T2)+30%(HA in T3)+40%(SA2)

So term 1 can relax abit..
Then come term 2

This year P5 to P6, the math banding was based on the SA2 result according to the math HOD.

I remembered last year Math TTLT provided 10 lessons of tranining for ACS mathlympics and a few lessons of tranining for all the students who have registered for the NUS NMOPS.
