Hi Parent,


Have you heard the school has already selected some of the children for special lesson during normal school times?

I heard the school stream into 2 groups, the intelligent group and improvement group.

Is already started, is that true?

for which level?

For primary one level. I think is not possible cos is almost end of the year, what kind of special class the intelligent students will attend?

I may be wrong, but stream them at such a young age, P1 only is crazy. What about the late boonmers? Will be quite unfair.

If the school arrange special class for those weaker students, is good cos can help them to catch up with other students.

But for intelligent students, is????

Never heard about such things, especially for P1 and P2 for the past 2 years. Maybe support learning groups, yes, but that is a MOE thing, for weaker students in specific subjects...

Does anyone know if there are auditions for the String Ensemble for the 2012 Primary ones? Who do I contact?

I note that the CCA days for String Ensemble is wed and Thurs. Is that for 2 days?

Thanks mommyNg.


I've heard one parent (also not sure if is true) said that the school has streamed the primary one students to attend special lesson during the normal class lesson, the high IQ group and the improvement (for weaker students) group.

I also never come across such news for Primary one students select for high IQ, as I only know they have class coaching for weaker students.

May be not the IQ special selection, I believed is for special talent selection.

yes, they do, but only for one lesson a week. But for those in need of learning support it is more often.

Hi Mvm

You mean the only one lesson a week, is for high IQ students? or for special talent students?

Sorry just want to re-confirm.

Maybe this is something new for P1 this year?
DS in P3 now and the only special classes we know of are 'remedial' for the weaker students in P1/2 and '深广' chinese classes in P2 for selected students. However, the sch would not keep a secret abt such classes; relevant circulars would be sent out to all parents. if anything unsure, should call the sch then speculate.

[Atan]

Oops, I missed out that for remedial classes for all subjects, it exist for all levels, P1-6.

Is very shocking to hear about this so called IQ Selection for Primary One Students. Is too early to stream them. Agreed??


I hope all this streaming is not true for P1. The school should concentrate for those weaker students. Agreed??

But we said also no use… Hope the school don’t put TOO much pressure for our little ones only P1 leh…
