    • RE: Seeking advice on Math performance

      @zac-s-mum

      Hi zac-s-mum

      He scored a B3 for Science in Secondary 2, despite achieving an AL1 for PSLE. I initially thought Science was his weakest subject, but it turns out that may not be the case.

      Back in Primary 6, when I gave him exam papers to practice, he could score quite well. However, as I mentioned, his actual PSLE results were unexpectedly lower.

      In Secondary 1, I didn’t drill him as much, expecting him to take more responsibility for his learning. When I checked with his tuition teacher, she mentioned that he was doing fine but tended to be careless. However, just last week, his Math tutor (who has been teaching him for six months) pointed out that he seems quite forgetful—he remembers something one moment but forgets it shortly after.

      I’m wondering if this could be a sign of attention difficulties or something else.

    • Seeking advice on Math performance

      Hi everyone, I’m hoping to get some advice or hear from parents who may have experienced something similar with their child.

      My son is in Secondary 2 this year, and I’ve noticed a recurring pattern with his Math performance. When he does his assignments, he seems to understand the concepts and completes them without much issue. However, when it comes to exams, he seems to blank out and struggles to apply what he has learned. His results tend to fall in the B4 or C5 range, which doesn’t seem to reflect his actual ability.

      I first noticed this during his PSLE—his assignments were fine, and even his tuition teacher was confident in his understanding. However, his actual PSLE Math results were unexpectedly lower than we anticipated.

      Has anyone else experienced this with their child? Could it be exam anxiety, a lack of time management, or some other issue? I’d love to hear any advice or strategies that worked for your child

      I took a look at MOE School Finder website. There is a very short list of JCs available (fewer than secondary schools). Click one by one to see the DSA domains.

      None have Dragon Boat DSA. Some have Canoeing DSA though.

    • RE: Dragon Boat DSA

      Hi parents

      My son’s school offered Dragon Boat as CCA. I notice that not many secondary schools offered dragon boat but they have canoeing instead.

      Qn: can dragon boat use as a dsa for canoeing to JC?

      Qn: what jc except dsa on dragon boat? Anyone knows ? Can share?

      Qn: I notice that the sec school hasn’t been winning for past years. Overall performance is no good. Will it affect the dsa to JC?

    • RE: Appeal Secondary One Posting

      suleen\" post_id=\"2126268\" time=\"1704250178\" user_id=\"157000:

      hi yes, appealed on 20th dec, received call on 21st that appeal is accepted.
      Forgot to mention, my boy didn't get all his 6 choices even though he met the COP for most of them.
      Too competitive and probably got balloted out.

      Subsequently from 22nd to 29th we received more calls from other schools but we have decided on the first one.
      Same as me ..
