My girl in P3 has been given some Topical Tests for English and Maths and some Practice Tests. Does anyone know if these count towards the overall tabulation of their results for the whole year? Or only the SAs are counted? Cos when they were in P1 and P2, I remember these regular tests carry some weightage…

Hi, can any parents share any good science tuition centre in the east area? Many thanks!

hi starrenee,

tuition centres cater to masses. they teach in groups & students tend to ‘socialize’ in class. they don’t focus on each child. so if your child has a worksheet or test on a particular topic which the centre has not taught, then your child will have to tackle it on his/her own. tuition centres take in students from various schools so they can’t cater to each child’s needs. hope this helps.

I believe TNS do not organize any open house. At least none in the recent few years.

Does anyone know if we can check the results of the Mid Year Exams as a whole level? Personally, I think some of the papers are very tough for my child, but I want to understand the performance as a whole level/ standard so that I can judge if my child needs remedial help or if the paper is set tougher than the usual, and she can still cope. Would want to reduce the need for tutors as much as possible.
