Just use that as a gauge first. They usually release results etc at the same time every year, ie a particular week day of a particular week. (I can't recall what now). But MOE will not give you the exact date for the PSLE results until later bec they want to give themselves a buffer in case there's a delay in marking.

PSLE result release date is usually the last thursday in november. followed by S1 option exercise date for a few days (online).


S1 posting result is out usually around Dec 22, followed by the S1 registration / reporting to sec school the next day.

Oooh! Thanks funx3! :rahrah:

But no need to make it look like scrapbook right? Like pretty pretty type?

No need. In fact my friend's dd who did it pretty pretty was shocked to realize that SOTA just tore it apart and kept the relevant portions.

hi jtoh, was your friend's dd applying for Dance / Visual Arts?

Do you know how to prepare a portfolio book? I am thinking to stuff all the certificates and school reports in one clear-fold. Don’t know whether it is right way?

No right or wrong way.
At least one school even instructed the kids to just staple and submit...donch need folder.

here is the very kiasu way of the portfolio

compile all the academic records and summarise them on a cover page in one section

compile all the academic competitions awards in one section and summarise them with a cover page

compile all the CCA awards / certs in one section with a cover page, those without certs but with trophies - take photos of the trophies and include them

also include teachers' recommendation, testimonial, photos of project / artwork where applicable,

include any international / cip awards etc

print out the online DSA submission and put on top

organise the compilation with section dividers and a content page

select a nice cover and sent for binding into a book and hand deliver to the school

yes, very kiasu hor.... :siam:

I LIKE!

Thought it sounds tedious and very KS, it makes a huge difference when we receive such portfolios.
I know of students who make multiple copies (for artwork, they take a picture and do a write up with it on A4 paper for easy filing).

Do get you kid involved in the preparation too. Gives them a sense of achievement and experience on being organised and presentable.
