Happy new year to all… Heard parents saying 5.1 to 5.5 all 2 teachers + co, but how come 5.6 got 3?? Is it they’re new ?

Am also curious how the school allocate the p4 students? Why I see parents in school were so excited that their child get into 5.6 ? Isn’t 5.4 and 5.5 as good? Some from these 2 classes also offered higher mother tongue right? Any one knows how APS students did for their PSLE last year?

Oh ok, noted… Many thanks!

Hi, where to buy next year books? New bookshop? Heard only 5.6 class will be the only class doing higher Chinese,is that true?

Thank you!

Hi, was told this Friday there's no school, but dd say there's no reason... :idea:

I heard 5.2 n 5.3 are the best 2 too.


Top 40 go to 5.2 n next better 40 go to 5.3, I suppose… But I heard this year not many band 1 in English,am not sure if it’s true tho…

Well said, Mashy! Many likes!

Just sharing, frd's ds of mine fr Maris Stella,when they get bk their SA1 papers for every subject, there's a slip showing highest/lowest and average scores,


do you parents think it does motivate the children to work harder if they are below average?
Or if the parent knows their children are not as good as many others,they feel stressful n giving more stress to the child??? Very contradict!!

actually, the school need not show the highest or lowest score.
because highest ... there are so many classes in the same cohort.
definitely there'll be some hardworking & disciplined kids, who scored full marks.

lowest ... also no need to show, doesn't serve any purpose.
only to make whichever child scored the lowest marks feel lousy, knowing that he scored the lowest, in his cohort.
School should not disclose the lowest score.

but, knowing the average score, is useful.
because if a child fall below average in his cohort -
parents should provide guidance & support at home, find out the reason(s) why child fall below average, and help the child at home to catch up, asap.

Good idea!
