My P1 boy took the test oso. He said v. simple test on patterns. I asked his teacher today and she said MOE is conducting some research (dunno on what) and the school will not be informed of the test results. She said the results will not affect the kids in anyway so the sch did not inform the parents beforehand.

Oh my P1 dd never tell me anything about the test… shall go ask her tonite…

Could it be a test that is conducted to check Singapore’s standard against other countries? I’m teaching in a Sec sch, some students from my school were also selected to sit for this "Pisa" test…

My kid had the test last week.
Total is 60Qs in half hour.
The purpose? No one knows. :lol: -

Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) will be testing on academic work like science, math, literacy etc.
Did you managed to get a peek of the questions posed?
DS re-calls back the questions and walk through with me how he derives his answers. It's not exactly a math question that has been touch on. More like iq test. Majority of the question only shows pictures like a few diagrams and he is to answer what is the next pattern. -

It reminds me of the aptitude test I had to take years ago for psychology at NUS. Needless to say, I couldn't pass since I didn't even have a chance to finish the paper.EN:

My ds had the tests twice at the beginning of this year. I was told he was the only one from his class & the qs were difficult, most of them were not even taught before for P1, such as fractions. He was asked to do the test a 2nd time, i think probably to complete the qs that he did not do & this time the \"teacher\" explained the qs.
He was quite upset about it cos he had the impression that it was an extra test/lesson as he was the only went. On top of this, he missed his chinese lesson twice & had to bring back hw.
I asked his FT & was told that MOE was conducting some research on the standard of students based on ramdoning selected students from each class. I found out that some classes have more students asked to do the test.
I think there is nothing much to worry about.
Cheers!
