Dear All,


I'm new to this forum and hope to be able to get some info.

We've registered our child for P1 2013 while living overseas and we are still deciding whether we should return by end of this year so that our child could start his P1 on the 1st day of school in 2013. Or alternatively, next March 2013.

Would appreciate if anyone could share their experience on what to expect on the first few weeks at the school and also

1) How's the primary 1 curiculum, how often do they have test and do the test count towards the final year marks

2) How's the first few months of P1 experience at Pei Chun? Do students get lots of homework?

3) Would there be any problem if students start their P1 in term 2?

Thanks.

Michelle

Hi Michelle,

For P1 and P2, the work load is quite light... there are tests for each subject every term that will add up at year-end. From my experience, the school work and tests are all manageable. The only thing I wish to hi-light is the first term in P1, the kids will be drilled the HYPY. So, you may wish to take note of this.

Hi Callie, thanks for your info. Btw, do you personally feel that it will be hard for a child to \"catch up\" if he has missed the first term?
