OLP:Hi, I also want to find out how NP does streaming for P3.
Hi! I'm a ex-student of Northland, graduated only abt 3 yrs back so I think it shouldn't have changed much.
For Northland, it conducts a streaming from P2 to P3 and this is based on the child's academic results. There are 2 'better' classes- E and F. I was from F last time so I know this. To make it to these 2 'better' classes, the child's level position has to 80 and above. Sometimes there may be exception of one or two, but usually it's in the 80 range since each class can only take about 40 students.
It may not seem very necessary to get into the 'better' classes right now at P3, but u will come to notice that it is very crucial in Northland. Most of the chances will be offered to these students as they can learn faster so they get more sources than the rest. Also, there will be elective programmes for the better ones in these 'better' classes. Of course, the class environment counts as well. So, my suggestion as a senior will be work as hard as possible right now to save regrets for the future!
Jiayous!
Er, there's actually nothing much to bring when u report to school because everything wil be given to u by the teachers eg. the 3rd language information, CCA bkt for a brief idea of CCA in NY, etc. So, as long as u have confirmed that u have been admitted into NY, actually there's not much things u need to bring.
