Velcro is ok though I personally go for shoe laces ones so that my son at least know how to tie shoe laces. Socks must be NC ones.

The school is more flexible now. P1 & P2 is OK without shoe laces. During my older boy's time, shoe laces were compulsory, even for P1 & P2.

Latest news, my girl today told me that this year P3 have no streaming. (e.g. P3 class 3A will be at P4 4A class)

My older boy is in P6 this year. Streaming is only in P2 & P4. Not every year.

Whether the teacher is able to control the environment, depends, even some parents allow their children to climb over their heads.


If teacher is good, will be posted to first class liao. There will be records such as PSLE results. Lets say 6A under this teacher can produce 30 students to score 260 above, definitely
this teacher will be
recommended for
promotion.

Just for your info. It is not
necessary that top classes
will get the best teachers. None of the HOD takes 6A this year. Chinese HOD teaches 6C, English HOD
teaches 6B, Science HOD teaches 6B & 6D & Math HOD teaches 6F.

We attended the orientation exercise for our child last Monday. The staff was well organised and I was pleased with the way most teachers handled the children. The student ushers were particularly helpful, directing parents at the school main gate. I am feeling proud to be a parent of NCPs, though my journey has barely started. I hope I won't be disappointed in the months, and years to come.

Not true. At least that's what I observed in this year's FT allocation. So-called good teachers were not deployed to the best class.

Agreed. Not necessary best class will get best teachers. Understand years ago they did that but not now.

Change principal, everything changed.

Good to hear that good teachers are not allocated in the best class. However, 6A standard is still the best leh compare to 6B, 6C led by HOD.

Just to check is A class the best of all or A and B are equally best?

I think the principal is trying to level the playing field so it is true that not necessary the HOD will be in the best class. During the PTM, the teacher shared that his philosophy is to help all kids not just those in the top 3 classes.


Though for p6 this year, HODs not in the 6A, most of the other teachers still delivered. Each year juz need to pray for good, caring and responsible teachers. All schools have their share of good and not so good teachers so as parents need to monitor and extend support and help whenever necessary. It is juz like adults trying to adapt working with different types of managers.

Whether A class is the best class, we will only find out on 22 Nov… Psle results release day.
