My boy took his PSLE in 2012. Principal told us on results released day that it was the best results since NCPS relocated to Sengkang. About 15% of NCPS kids are in the top 10% of the PSLE cohort. Our performance is better than the national average. 100% passing rate. My boy has been posted to Catholics High School. We put NCH as our third choice.

Where does Kentridge get the information from? NYPS ranking is usually in the top 3. More than 40% of its students are in the top 10% (250 & above) of the PSLE cohort. It has 4 GEP classes (100 kids) & 1 METTA class (miss the GEP by 1 or 2 points) Last year top national 285 is also from NYPS. I don't think the data is from reliable source.

hi p3-p6 parents,


can i check if you can make sense of the your kids' diagostic report based on the star reading report. A ZPD range is given to each kid and they are to pick books from the accelerated reading list based on that score. However, the list doesn't have any ZPD score. Instead, the only score that is available is that of \"Pts\" and \"BL\" range.

Hence wondering if any parent can enlighten?

BL= book level, so use that to correspond w the ZPD. Kids may want to start w the lower range of ZPD before challenging themselves w the upper range, as upper range bks could still be frustrating for them.
