Raffles Girls' Primary

Yes, agree.
No highest, no lowest fine.
But average parents should know - So that we know whether our kid is within Average or below average. -
Funz:
I don't like this move. I am fine with no highest or lowest but at least let us know the average. Knowing averages is not about competing but knowing if our kids are among the average. Without this info, I might jump if DD comes back with a test result of 15/30 when in reality, almost all scored about that as it might be a tough paper. And vice versa, should I rejoice if she comes back with 29/30 if the rest of the cohort is getting mainly 30/30.
Strong agreed. -

Don't think there are such detailed rankings in the report books.KSP:
starting this SA1, the sch will not state level/class highest/avg on exam paper.... the P told every student - u only compete with yourself not anyone else.....
Does this means no class position/level ranking in report cards? Interesting, very commendable move by the school's steering comm. -

Yes, Agree too -

Do the school disclose how many of its graduates entered Raffles girls secondary through DSA and Sec1 posting?
In 2012 before DSA we had a briefing, yes a list of band A, B schools were shown and the no. of girls that entered certain secondary schools were indicated.
Dont think much will be released this year as MOE does not encourage banding of schools. -

The new rule started already...my DD brought back her topic test paper, all information removed except her own marks...

should be SA1 but Ts may already started it.....
same here, T told the class if can get 60-70% you are ok...... the papers are really tough..... got ppl failed in the class.... -
Which p5 paper are u refering - get 60 to 70 marks ok?
Maths or science? -
when dd in P1/2, i can never imagine what P5 is like… now i know… anyway not to worry too much just let your dd enjoy for now… u will know when the time comes and do some self-adjustment… if the child is gifted or exceptionally smart then it will be smooth sailing but for majority it would be a wake-up call…

My girl told me that today they have their seats re-arranged for the ICAS Science test tomorrow, and also for the upcoming SA1.
And the teachers also told them that the upcoming SA1 will be very tough!!!!! And she is only in P4 :?:
I can't imagine next year, another major jump!! :imdrowning:
