Hi,


Just to share.

For BASC, there is one PCF Hong Kah North right across the road from the original campus where SAPS will be moving back to. The principal Christine Lim is very responsible and always bring them across the road personally and back across the traffic light junction. She also got them to do quite a fair amount of assessment books. For temporary campus, I have seen the principal ferry them in the school bus and guiding them down. In addition, for a small additional fee, you can have her bring your kid to and from CCA.

There is a designated school bus. You can call Susan. PM if you need her contact.

Hi stevesim,


Thanks for your reply.. Was hoping no exam in Pri 1 will be good for my boy.. At least he won't feel stress.. Can check noted u mentioned there's a final exam in Pri 2, can your dd cope??? Does your dd feel weird there an exam??

My dd has no issues since there had been continuous assessments and online e-learning assessments . You can always practise mock-up papers.

I think it is matter of time PERI and holistic assessment will be rolled out to all primary schools. More about PERI and holistic assessment:

More details:
http://www.moe.gov.sg/media/parliamentary-replies/2012/02/holistic-assessment-in-primary-schools.php

\"Holistic Assessment is being implemented on a progressive basis, starting from Primary One. In 2010, 16 prototype schools implemented Holistic Assessment in Primary 1 and Primary 2. In 2011 and 2012, another 67 and 54 schools started implementation at Primary 1 respectively. We expect the rest to start in 2013. For schools which have started earlier in the journey, efforts are now being focused on implementing Holistic Assessment at higher levels.\"

Every school will send the parent a confirmation letter that your kid has been enlist to the school, some of the parents from other school have already receive.

We are in phase 2C and have yet to receive the letter from SAPS.
