Is another exciting year for our children in YZPS.

I am surprised that the class size increased from 30 students to current 41 students! :roll:
not easy to handle a class of that size.

[bbrooster]

May I know the increase in class size is for which level?

[Del]

Is it confirmed that it is a bigger class size ie 40 children now as compared with 30 previously because it is single session now? This applies to all levels including P1?

Dear Parents

In accordance with MOE’s guidelines, P1 & P2 will be packed at 30 pupils per class to allow the pupils time to transit from kindergarten to primary school. At the P3 to P6 levels, class sizes will increase beyond 30.

Thank you.

Regards
Yangzheng Primary School

Actually can’t bear the thought if ‘packing’ children in classes. Would the school considering ‘pegging’ instead?

Did any parents attend the Teachers-meet-Parents sessions last week?


I went for both DS and DD’s sessions.

I was quite disappointed with the time we had to wait for a few of the sessions. Some parents are obviously a lot more inquisitive and curious about their kid(s), but teachers should have known to control the time spent on each parent, so as not to cause others to wait too long.

Either that, or hopefully the school can plan better for future sessions.

tks…

Oh. Didn't attend. Was busy with work. I have given the contact number for the teachers to contact me . Not sure whether they will call. But doesn't matter .

I prefer to talk over the phone than to meet the teachers. Many a time , parents have to wait more than half an hour and just got to talk to the teacher for 5 to 10 minutes. Sometime, U want to ask more but there are parents waiting . So can't talk much to delay the time.
I prefer to attend the parent briefing n the learning fiesta which I think is quite fruitful . In fact , I would like sign up for more but can only attend 2 sessions.
I find it very useful to learn from the teachers on the tips to teach . But surprisingly, not very parents attended . The sessions I attended had only a few parents . I have a good chat with my girl's form teacher

I went for one session when DD was in P1, saw the situation, and decided not to turn up again, while explaining to DD that this is because I feel it is counter-productive to wait in line indefinitely to see the teacher, trying to ascertain that everything's ok, when both of us know she is doing ok in school. I would usually send an email to ask the relevant teacher if there's any clarification needed. They would always reply or call. And yes, the Learning Fiesta sessions offered a good chance to meet up and chat with the teachers at a time when they're more candid.
