Why Is There A Mixture Of Students With Different Levels Of English?
• For P3/4: Our classes are pitched at the P4 level so that they will be well prepared for their final year examinations. As the government has been emphasizing a lot on creative thinking skills, most schools have therefore increase their level of difficulty for their school’s exam paper. It will then be more beneficial if we expose them to challenging questions instead of giving them simpler ones.
• For P5/6: Our classes are pitched at the P6 level as they are designed to help student score the PSLE. We are already starting preparing them for PSLE as it is their next big hurdle.
• General conclusion: We compliment the MOE syllabus and delve it so that what we do here is of a higher standard than what your child does in school. This makes your child well prepared for exam.
