Sembgal,
U are right. Last year, my child’s kindergarten term 3 onwards, teachers spend so much time preparing for year end concert that come term 4, the rehearsal eat into their academic time. The teachers seem so concern over the performance of year end concert, that they neglected teaching at times. -

You are welcome. In fact, do not wait till the May Parent-Teacher Meeting to discuss your child’s progress. Do it earlier. PTM usually give you 10 to 15 mins to talk to teachers. By making an earlier appointment in April, you can identify the child’s weakness and work with the child’s teacher to see an improvement earlier. Otherwise, write an email to the teacher to seek feedback will work just as well.

I found this link. It's from last year's but at least provide some info on the schools' niche areas. The latest one may be updated in few months time.

If really serious abt taking up core CCAs then in some cases need to be trained now to have higher chance during selection in P1 / P2.

Some parents had already started their kids into competition swimming, from n2 to k2. They wake up early in the morning, swim a few lab.
If you are a good swimmer, can seek transfer to popular school(s) that desire swimming talent. They will groom talent from p1, for the next coming Yog Olympics.
If the child join swimming from p3 - how to fight with those that had already received training earlier in p1, p2 ? -

Yes, some kids are already swimming 5 times a week. My P1 DS has a classmate like that and top in position for all 3 events (max allowance) for the recent swimming meets.
Recently, I heard a kiasu mummy sends her P4 daughter to be at the pool every morning at 5.30am before she starts school in the morning -
Do all schools offer competitive swimming?
