        :shock: πŸ˜„ :shock: πŸ˜„ Congratulations! Then again, I never doubted that your kid will do well.

        By the way, we have just updated our http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/singapore-primary-schools-ranked-academic-excellence. We have a new winner: Nanyang Primary School which blew past Raffles Girls Primary School to take the crown! But what is more heartening is to see the schools below continuing or even improving on their previous year's performance at generating national top students:

        Anglo-Chinese School (Junior)
        Yew Tee Primary School
        Nan Chiau Primary School
        West Grove Primary School
        Chua Chu Kang Primary School
        East Spring Primary School
        Fairfield Methodist Primary School
        Haig Girls' School
        Ngee Ann Primary School
        Paya Lebar Methodist Girls' School (Primary)
        South View Primary School

        Congrats to all!

                  Sniper Angel, some schools post it on their websites, some schools don’t. And different schools also use different numbers eg. some publish %A/A* and some use the average T-score. Guess u got to call the individual school to ask, MOE dont publish that.

                    Yes, at the end of the day, I still feel that if our kids put in their best, and we, as parents do our part to guide them , we should all be happy with the outcome. Other aspects of their live are important too, not just academic.

                    But of course, it is every child & every parent's wish to do well & be in a good school. πŸ™‚
                    Nice having that short \"chat\" with all of you... BTW, I'm quite new in this forum.
                    Have a good & enjoyable school break πŸ™‚
                    Hi,
                    Truly agrees with Claire.
                    My son is not the academically inclined. His Chinese teacher keeps scolding and scolding and his grade keeps dropping. By his 1st prelim, it drops to below 20. Shocking, right?
                    Fortunately, managed to find a tutor and guess what. He got an A for his Chinese.
                    Thanks God.

                      Saw the 10pm Channel 8 news last night and heard that 44% of the


                      Nanyang P6 students scored an aggreate of 250 and above..!!!

                      Impressive!!! :lol: :lol:

                      Actually you may be surprised to know that RGPS average score last year was 234.....that was what the principal told the parents when my fd went for the P6 talk. :!: :!:

                        Yes. 44.4% of NYPS' PSLE cohort scores above 250. 89 of them has 4A*. Top scorer this year also from NYPS. 4 of the nation's top scorers come from the school. The school definitely has a good system in place to churn out students with good results. However, from my observation and analysis, NYPS is also 'blessed' with many favourable conditions for churning out top scholars:

                        (1) NYPS has the biggest GEP cohort every year (4 classes vs 2 in other schools)

                        (2) Many of the top scorers are transfered from neighbourhood schools either via GEP program or through merit transfers. I understand many of the students who made it for GEP selection test but not the GEP program have appealed to the school for transfer to their mainstream classes.

                        (3) Majority of NYPS students have very previliged family backgrounds. Many of them have MPs, CEOs, professionals and very high ranking government officers as parents. Good genes ==> nature

                        (4) Many of the students has educators (eg. school teachers and even university professors) as parents.

                        (5) Majority of the students go for high-end enrichment centres which charges a few hundred dollars an hour! $$$ can buy ==> nurture

                        (6) Even in CCAs, many students joined the school already trained by professional trainers outside and therefore already acquired skills fit for winning medals at competitions! Sports, Chess (National square), Caligraphy, & etc.

                        Take the top scorer this year; father - doctor, mother - ex-lawyer, even grandma is educated enough to teach her Chinese. No tuition? Having a lawyer-trained mother as a tuitor is superior enough.

                        Is this a level playing field? The answer is NO! In $ingapore, it is very important to be rich and be a somebody. The game is never fairly played. Kids from the HDB heartlanders will definitely loose out to their previlidged-background classmates, even in the same esteemed school.
