thanks!

so there are 3 better ability classes for p5- 5.4/5.5/5.6...

Yup, I suppose yours got into one of them?

[ACTC]

Previously the top 40 for P4s will go to 5.2, and next 40 to 5.3 and so on. My DD was from 6.2 in last year, and for the last year PSLE result, the top 12 mentioned in on PSLE result day were all from 6.2.


My 2DS now in 6.3. He was top 3 in 5.3 last year but did not even qualify for the Edusave scholarships which are awarded to the top 10% of the cohort. That goes to show that all the better students are grouped in 5.2. For this year, and the first in 6.3 is 12th in whole level.

For this year, I was told the top 120 of P4s are assigned to 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6 and not concentrated in a particular class.

I believe so as not all top 3 of the p4 class go to same class next yr.

Anyone with child going P5.6 next year? Maybe we can start a whatapp group since they will be in the same class for 2years. We can share info and updates via the whatapp group:)

It's in Nov's newsletter. U can still get from holding school. Some time in dec, they will shift back.

Regarding higher Chinese, it should be the same as last few years, they will break up to their Chinese classes.

Oh ok, noted… Many thanks!

My DS got into 5.2 since he didnt do well. Just hope he can buck up to do better in P5 and P6

Does it mean that 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 are also the better classes? My DS said that 3.1 to 3.3 will have 30 students in the classes and are the weaker ones. So APS is also doing away with banding the top students in the same class. I wonder if this is a good strategy as the students in APS are pretty diverse in academic ability.
