    27. 27 History Research on parent involvement has shown consistently that there are many benefits for students, their families and schools, when parents are involved in their children's lives and education. Our previous President said, close collaboration between school, parents and community is essential. Along with the school, PSG works along this line.

    28. 28 Outcomes The PSG creates a network of links for the school, its families and the community. The end result is not only a rich diversity of talents, but also an extended networking system for the benefit of the pupils and the school. Parents are valued as partners in their children's education Enrich school personnel, pupils and their families This is a networking place to support parents, pupil and schoolThis is a networking place to support parents, pupil and school

    36. Laying a Strong Foundation in Primary 2

    38. Assessment is an integral part of learning. Assessment can be after the teacher has taught a new topic or skill through a series of activities. Assessment can also be during the learning process itself. The teacher needs to find out whether your child has learnt. Assessment enables the teacher to provide feedback to the child to help him improve. Your child is also guided to correct his mistakes or practice specific skills to improve himself.

    39. Our seven- and eight- year olds should enjoy learning and like going to school. We are mindful that assessments and tests should be used to affirm your childs progress. Our focus is to show the children what they can do rather than what they are not capable of. If we could all work towards creating this early positive experience, our children will develop greater confidence and interest in schooling and for life-long learning. We also know that young children are not able to sit through long durations of exams. Therefore, mini tests which are shorter in duration and cover a smaller area, will be used instead of mid and end of year exams. For these younger children, this means more timely feedback to improve on their learning. Hence, instead of waiting till end of term or a semester to take a single exam which assesses everything, teachers will now use bite-sized assessment to check on the learning and to give feedback. Tests and assessments come in different forms. Traditionally, teachers mostly use the pen and paper form to assess how much the children have learnt. Pen and paper examinations are just one form of assessment. They cannot test certain skills (like oracy) and qualities (like teamwork). A wider range of appropriate testing methods will allow children of different abilities and talents to demonstrate what they have learnt. We believe that an overly strong emphasis on exams at lower primary is unnecessary. We want to place more emphasis on learning. At P1 we want to place less importance on mid-year and end-of -year examinations to facilitate a smooth transition from kindergarten to primary school. In line with these beliefs, short weighted assessment tasks will be used in Terms 2-4 for Primary 1. For Primary 2 pupils, assessments in Term 1-3 will continue to be bite-sized. Primary 2 pupils will be slowly eased into taking examinations at the end of the year.Our seven- and eight- year olds should enjoy learning and like going to school.

    40. Holistic Assessment Plan for P2 It takes a village to raise a child. We want to nurture our children to be best that they can be but we cannot do it alone. It is essential for all of us - school leaders, teachers and parents, to work together to create the best possible learning environment for our children. In particular, your strong support is crucial in realising a more all-rounded education for our children. Your childs holistic development is the focus of our schools efforts. Your partnership with the school will help you to be constantly informed and involved in your childs progress. Together, we can help your child realise his full potential.It takes a village to raise a child. We want to nurture our children to be best that they can be but we cannot do it alone.

Your partnership with the school will help you to be constantly informed and involved in your childs progress. Together, we can help your child realise his full potential.

    41. Planning for Holistic Assessment In putting together the assessment plan, the following considerations have been taken into account: Core content of the subject (Knowledge, Skills, Attitudes and Values) A balance of assessment tasks is maintained Assessment tasks are weighted appropriately to reflect the relative importance of learning outcomes and also pupils ability to cope with the assessment tasks at that point in time There is scaffolding of the assessment task/s during the learning and teaching process Varied modes of assessment are used and spread out appropriately to avoid over-loading the pupils

    42. In addition to the day-to-day feedback that the teacher will provide through written or oral comments on your childs daily work, you will also receive a formal report at the end of each term. In the termly report, your childs progress in the key learning outcomes from the various subjects will be indicated through a rubric. (an example of the termly progress card may be shown here) In Term 4, besides reflecting marks or grades for every subject, teachers will also provide an overall feedback of your childs progress and achievements for the whole year. (an example of the year-end repot card may be shown here) In addition to the day-to-day feedback that the teacher will provide through written or oral comments on your childs daily work, you will also receive a formal report at the end of each term.

    43. In addition to the termly reports, you will be shown your childs Holistic Assessment Portfolio during our Parents-Meet-Teacher session. The portfolio will contain your childs work from all subjects. Our teachers will take you through the contents of the portfolio to give you a clearer picture of your childs performance in school.

    45. With a wider range of assessment methods, your child will have more opportunities to show what he has learnt. He will also get regular and timely feedback which will help him improve. We want your child to experience success in learning. This will help him grow in confidence and increase his desire to learn, which is the key focus at lower primary, when pupils are just beginning school. The emphasis is on the process of learning and not just on how well pupils perform in tests and examinations. Placing less emphasis on examinations will place less stress on the pupils and enable them to enjoy their learning more. This will pave the way for them to become self-directed learners.

    46. You may ask if your child will be ready to sit for longer examinations in the future. We would like to assure you that your child will be progressively prepared at a pace that will not overwhelm or stress him unduly. Through the wide range of activities and rich feedback he receives, your child would have acquired the strong foundation that he needs to carry on learning in future. He would have gained confidence and a strong desire to learn, having found meaning and relevance in what he has learnt. These will help him to progress steadily to the next level.
