How about P3 Math? Any clue on the average score? Heard from DS only 2 students from his class got full marks and a few failed.


Is there any feedback regarding composition? While waiting to pick up my DS this afternoon, I overheard some parents/ grandparents saying that their children/grandchildren did very badly. At first I thought my DS did very badly too but after hearing the conversation, it seems he's still ok, though it is still very disappointing mark.. Sigh! :imdrowning:

Now, I finally understand why people say there's a big jump from P2 to P3 and a bigger jump from P4 to P5.

Got a friend’s kid got p4 math full mark, no tuition.




For p3 , English paper2 n math r very possible for perfect score. The drop in this sa1 will climb back at sa2 back to normal std.

To improve math let child try more other sch paper, n nearer to exam try more on pcps old math paper eg 2011 etc which can be downloaded…the format n ques r very similar. Sometimes I thought they r changing the nos only.

Finally, its not the smart kid who score, its the meticulous one. I always remind my kids this…n get them to underline the hints when necessary, check the sums the opposite way etc

Gotten CL compo markings? Strict or lenient?

Hi, no news on Chinese compo yet.

Have spoken with a few other parents, we think it should be as "exciting" as English compo.

tough, especially the EL. HCL not much better. Luckily Math and Science ok. Else I think I'll have a stroke already.

Wonder what is the rationale of setting such hard papers? to scare the students and/or parents? So we'll scramble to look for tuition?

Hey folks! I almost got a heart attack too when I knew the EL compo results. Already mentally prepared for CL compo so it was kind of expected. Highest in DS’s class is only 15-16. He did slightly better than EL but still, I find marking very strict for both English and Chinese. Haha… I am sure many parents will be sending their kids to writing classes soon… Unless school teachers are able to help raise the bar, what else we can do except sending them to more enrichment classes.

For English compo, teacher's advise for me is buy him P5-P6 compos books to read. Elaborate more..my DS did improved from 15-SA1 to 17-SA2 after following teacher advise.

For Chinese compo, there is no choice but to memorise a lot more good sentence. For PCPS P3 there is no moxie. So at home, you got to choose some chinese compos, and select sentence to get them memorise. A good practise is to have an exercise book, let them copy down the good sentence, memorise it, make it their sentence bank to be used any time..

If you expect sch can help, i think its really very little, so we parents got to work harder at hm, if not the professional.

But these advise are only good for P3 20marks compos.

When it comes to 40marks compos, it is really really hard, for EL, teacher are looking at that plot that can capture readers attention
For chinese, the compos should be full of good sentence..


I still havent figure out how to help my ds improve..haiz..
