My dd was awarded with e good progress award $200 in Sec 1. Was shocked to receive it. But wonder hw to claim to award? My ds was awarded $150 as well for P6 in 2011. Understand fm the letter, the award will be given to him in school but since he had left school, so hw is he goin to receive tis award? Anyone can enlighten me? :thankyou:

Does anyone knows where can I buy past year exam papers for P6 foundation maths? I only manages to get 2 assessment books from Popular Bookstore which my boy had completed. They dun even carry past year exam papers. HELP!! Can anyone share? :slapshead:

[quote=\"mimi61\"]Hi all, wanted to know if taking P6 - 2 standard and 2 foundation subjects be possible to enter Express Stream?


Thanking in advance. :?:

From what i heard,as long as you take foundation subjects,they'll be posted to Normal or Normal tech.I may be wrong.

Yes, it seems that if doing foundation subjects, then child will be posted to Normal (Academic) or Normal (Technical) stream, depending on the T-score.

I feel what is important now is to ask child to focus on PSLE and do as best as he/she can. Then there is a higher chance of being accepted into the Normal (Academic) stream in a \"better\" school.

There has been alot of changes in the secondary school landscape. There are some students in N(A) who are also doing subjects that were previously offered in the Express stream only (like Additional Math).[/quote]thanks to u..mybaby

I had 2 students last year who scored 20++ in their school's papers and the teachers never even mentioned 'foundation' to them before!


In the end, both of them managed to pass Maths at PSLE after intensive tuition (one of them started in Jan, ended with B and the other started in June, got a C).

Both of them had very very very weak foundation and I mostly focused on the basic skills instead of the challenging problem solving techniques.
And both parents, knowing their children's abilities, were very thankful that their kids passed and managed to get into NA. They thought that their kids either had to repeat or go to NT!!
