So if they take out banding. What's going to happen to those \"Top\" schools and their DSA system? They've got the top kids and will continue to top in exams right?

Top schools are IP schools that attract top 10% of the PSLE students. Not all schools are equally good, even without banding.

Mama Mania:

Gosh, reading through all the posts give me the shudders as my DD will be facing this madness next year. I have been really thinking how to best motivate her to her best capability as she is very slow in her work and there will be a mountain pile of papers greeting her come January. If it is possible, really don't wish to go through this PSLE year, ever/again - never. :nailbite:

After 9 months of madness, you will get 3 months of good break. Take it as it comes, she will have to learn how to manage her time. My son felt very tired during the 9 months & now he complains boring due to no more homework, supplementary lessons or tuition. All kids & parents need to go through this phase. All the best to your DD for her PSLE!

Banding table visibly missing. Also the cover is thin and grey compared with last year's nice thick green cover. Suspect they had to rush the printing because of taking out the banding.

I suspect they reprint the books.

9 months of intensive coaching...that was really PEAK...this is the first weekend after PSLE. I kept to my promise by letting son play to his heart's content. After 2 days, he was bored...the sudden release from tuition and books was too much. We went out almost everyday...even though daughter will be having SA2. I can't face any more books.

Well, lets paint the town red...we really need to recharge batteries.

In the meantime, I asked son to coach his sister :evil:

Eeeeerrrmmmm. Maybe he's bored cos din go out with friends?? DS has been going to friend's house after school since Wed. They play network games, kick soccer, badminton, nerf guns etc. He would come back damn happy & then feel guilty leaving me 'alone' & would treat me extra nice at night, offering to play board games, watch TV, lie down beside me etc. Until I gotta shoo him off to have some 'ME' time. :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

If I ask DS 1 to coach DS 2...hell breaks loose. They either play and share silly jokes or they quarrel and tear the house down!
