Frontier is a relatively \"new\" school started in 2011, but has since been balloting mostly in Phase 2C for those <1km! This means that there is great demand for places in the school for that area.
It has balloting in Phase 2A2 for the first time last year for those staying 1-2km away.
The balloting was ridiculously high for the 2020 Phase 2C with 71 applicants vying for only 23 places.

I cannot tell you what kind of school culture you will find in Frontier, but getting a place inside there for Phase 2C seems to be a challenge. The growth in Phase 2A2 applicants has been astounding starting from 1 in 2017 to 111 in 2021, so it shows that people with some affiliation to the school is going for the school (I don't think they are alumni since the school was only started 10 years ago ๐Ÿ™‚ ).

In terms of Phase 1 applicants, the highest was 135 in 2018, tapering down to 87 in 2021. So, I would say this shows confidence that parents have in the school as they are prepared to send their children's siblings to the same school.
Thank You so much! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Quite surprised that it ended school @ 1245pm on Wednesday . Most schools end classes @ 2-3plus at least for a school day in a week.

My son is currently in P2 and will be moving on to P3 next year. So far for these 2 years, we had great support from my parents and my in-laws in picking him up after school. However, come next year, we are thinking of sending him to a student care arrangement instead.

What will the possibilities be to successfully get a placement mid way in a student care (assuming most start the arrangements since P1) and any tips in contacting the Student Care within Frontier? I tried calling the number in the website (Ms Adeline Chan Tel: 6333 6535) but find it difficult to get through. Also assuming getting a place at this student care not possible, would be great to hear any suggestions or experience from other parents.

Really appreciate any advice I can get from here.
Thanks!

May I know if there are any parents here with twins or triplets in Frontier Primary School? Are your kids in the same class or separate classes? Which do u see is more beneficial to your children?

Thanks in advance for sharing!

shutter:
There r 4 eng tests (oral, paper 2, compo and listening comprehension) and few other mock eng tests in term3 alone.


There are also 2 chinese n MAths tests
OMG!!
This is the norm for P1??
Yes, is the norm.
But they all come in mini byte sized.

Because MOE had already changed the new English PSLE format.
Next year 2015 Psle is the pioneering batch, to go through.
So, all primary schools have to prepare and start gearing up to expose their P1 students onwards, to be familiar to the style of testing of this new format - including all aspects - be it Oral, listening, or written.

Your child is sitting for 2019 Psle exam,
Will be under this new Psle format.

You mentioned 2 Maths Tests for Term 3.
Yes, one is for Theory Maths Test, testing on specific topics.
The second Maths test is Practical Maths test, children using their small little hands to solve Maths assignment.
These are called \"Perfirmance Tasks\" for Maths.
And before these 2 actual Maths tests, there are also \"warm up\" Maths papers or \"mock\" papers, to simulate the actual tests, so as to prepare the kids in advance the format of the tests expected.

Chinese : also similar tests -
Covering Theory tests, covering listening, reading, speaking tests.

I find that the sch has alot of tests as compare to other schools
Anyone has the same view?

All primary schools -
Every Term (from Term 2 to Term 4) in P1 have tests.

Example

Maths test -
Every Term in P1 test different topics.
The same apply to P2

Was told not to worry about the other parents and NOT that the school will inform them.


I would not want that to happen to me.
