This year PSLE Results out on 24 Nov?

So open houses will be on Sat 26 Nov?

Deadline to submit S1 option form: 30 Nov?

Just a guess. Planning when to go for holiday haha.[/quote]

Should be about right. Also have the weekend + PSLE marking days if want to go somewhere regionally. Long haul destination probably better for December...

We are getting ahead of ourselves. Need to hunker down for a few more months :nunchuk: . Haha

Indeed getting ahead of myself! Submitted my passport renewal application in June, they indicated roughly 6 weeks, and still no sign of readiness (it is around 7 week mark now).

Not loading my kid with work yet at this point…giving more down time due to tiredness on weekdays. We have whole weekends free and some public holidays in August for us to step on the gas…

EL, Math, Science still seem to be in hiding. Supposedly MEP and Visual Arts hit last night though. It can't be much longer

It's a good strategy, need to peak at the right time and not run out of gas at the start of the homestretch...

Not sure your guys' schedule. Guess is for many kids T3 Week 5 - Week 9 is when the action starts. Prelim Oral + PSLE Oral + Prelim Written Papers.

After that, just try to tidy up and then spin the magic PSLE wheel....

I'm concerned so having my kid ramp up with the prelims. If he catches a bad break and gets hit with COVID during the PSLE, I fear that they'll use his prelim results for Sec admission. That's not great as boys (being boys) only ramp up towards the very last leg and tend to be more complacent beforehand. Need to treat the prelims no differently than the PSLE unfortunately

This is a very good point. Hadn't thought of the covid factor. Thanks for sharing.

Posted a few weeks ago in the 2022 PSLE thread but here are the mechanics on what SEAB does if the student cannot sit for PSLE (or parts of it).
