      That is interesting! So much for focusing on the elite!

      Yeah, Starrenee, indeed so much for focusing on the elite!

      I even overhead, some parents condemn all the mainstream students, saying they are a bunch of bad kids.

      Cheers

        Hi Lynn, thanks for yr pm n sharing yr sentiments ! To me, it doesn't matter if the child is in GEP or not. My DS is in GEP n he mingles well with other classes. Importantly, it is the value and upbringing that makes the difference. I can't imagine what this girl will turn out to be in future. If this parent continues to instill such character building, it will do more harm. Told DS to keep a distance away fr her.

          Heard that most bicep and GEP managed to secure DSA thus did not take PSLE seriously. A pain point for the school.

            Hi tankee,


            True for most geppers but not true for bicep.

                Heard one class has got 36/42 went in.


                During dd times, only two out of the whole class did not make it.


                Usually after second round, there will only be around 10 into the final.

                  Wow that must be one of the top classes! Wonder if the school has any special arrangements for pupils who did not make it through the 2nd round…

                      Based on Sa 2 results(p3), they can either apply for bicep, if not can stay in top two mainstream classes which are equally good.


                      Last year top psle student in Tao nan comes from mainstream.
