Augmum:Many have been saying that yr1 is referred to \"Honeymoon period\" of the 6 yrs IP education....zae:Hi,
May I know what are the usual school hours for DHS?
I heard that DHS students need to do project/homework till midnight from sec 1. Is that true across IP students or particularly so in DHS?
Thanks so much.
Thus ...yr1 is alrdy considered as the most relax yr of the 6 yrs...
Real Heavy workload will come-in in yr3 and beyond...
Not everyday, they need to stay up late in yr1... Unless they are rushing to meet projects' deadline...
And it's true that DHS does have lots of projects to do...
In a way, that's good as these pupils are very hands-on wrt to projects since yr1...
Which may explains how they can achieve a whopping of 93.X% of Distinctions in recent A level results...
Of coz, if the pupil is in 2 CCAs, third lang and actively engage in other sch activities....
That will leave him or her not much time to complete homework/ assignments n projects...which leads to late nites...
But in short, Yr and Yr2 is definitely manageable ... if one works efficiently...
Wrt to what is the usual hrs for Yr 1...
3 long days and 2 short days....
For long days, it can end ard 6.30 p.m for CCA or those taking 3 rd lang or electives...
Short day will be ard 2-3 p.m...
All days start at 8 a.m.... Fri will start at 9 a.m....
Thanks so much! Have been reading your posts in this forum recently. Indeed helpful to know more about DHS!
