Dear Jazzie69,


Thanks for sharing with me! :boogie: :boogie:

Tot Singapore emphasis on Education.Is there any way I can work on it to prevent other gg thr my shoes?? :?:

Early this month ,Im helping my son (pri 6) to do revision.Then I spotted that his teacher did not mark his correction.Moreover inside his science file there is only 1 revision paper!My son told me there were still 1 or 2 more papers but were with his teacher!OMG the next day was his CA1 but were not given back to him.


Secondly,I had realized that there wasnt much homework.I had feedback to his form teacher,she told me not to worry there is still plenty of time!The school is ordering past year exam papers and will be giving them in april.Furthermore she need to finish up the school syllabus.I had spoke to couples of mum whose children were in pri 6 this year,their child hw were choke to their neck.

I really need help so I email to the school.His’s principal called me.I asked ab the amount of hw is decided by the school or…She reply as long as the minimum of hw is done, the school dont really interrupted."I’ve spoke to the children,they need to read more and do more if they dont have much work to do!"This was quote by the principal.She gave me a impression that the school wasn’t all out to help the Pri 6 students.Probably my boy wasn’t in the top class.

Apart from giving him tuition,the school need to help as well!
May I not right to said that!

Hi Moonliu,


Yes worksheets and workbook. English/Math, average 4 times a week,
1-2 pcs each time. Chinese mainly workbook, worksheet only during
topical review practice. (Talking about P1/2 \"bring-home-work\").
Workbooks are usually done in school.

Which level is your child/children?
