      Though there are failures, there are many who will do well too in their tests. I guess we will all have to set our targets according to our DCs' abilities. The road to education is still a long way to go.


      After one big exam last year...I would have thought Sec 1 would be sweet :skeptical: ...but tests 2-3 times a week isn't. The road ahead is very very long...so we need to bond with the kids during their teenage years before their friends become more important than us parents.

      DS just had his first Geog test and there a few who failed and parents are being informed. There will be few tests after CNY. CCA will start after CNY, can't imagine that. Hope they enjoy school to make learning a bliss for them.

        Son had 2 Geog tests so far. Next Fri, class will be informed of their CL and Science test results...homework not spared at all despite CNY. So tomorrow CL and Math tuition as per normal. But Sunday1st day CNY will be a free day. Mon & Tue mornings finish hw and revise.
        The week after...they will be tested from 22/2 to 27/2.
        ONLY Sec 1...can I request for teachers to slow down a little please ?

                    Back to reality.
                    asked my kids last night...'have you pack your school bags?'
                    they groaned...'there are 15 days of cny'.

                    tests to revise for starting from 2moro...they need time to gear up.
