Any recommendations on chinese compo model book or materials for sec 1 and 2 hcl?

Thank you.

My daughter was from KCPPS, just graduated last year… very good experience… teachers are kind, the Principal is really caring and unassuming. She was overseas on a MOE trip in UK i think , different time zone… but still make it a point to wake up like 2-3am in the morning to talk to the parents and students over zoom on PSLE results release day last year… I was thinking… this P really got Heart…

Thank you so much Chen Laoshi for the comparison table.

Hello Parents,


For those who have kids in Chung Cheng High ( Main), is the Chinese Std very high? esp for those who did not take HCL in primary school or those who may ve a good overall AL but chinese score may not be so ideal like al3 or 4? will it be very stressful?

Tia!
