arshi's results -psle

Last post I had mentioned that arshi is awaiting her psle results and by god's grace she got good marks .she has scored 250 points .Here in Singapore they compute marks and give results as T-score which is not the child's raw (actual score).It takes into account the whole cohort performance and standard deviation apart from our performance.I am still not able  to understand the whole concept of T-score.I always had fear within me what her score would be.I am happy to share she is one of the few students who scored good marks and called on stage to be appreciated.

I went late during her results day as CK was sick with fever that day.Arshi was recovering from flu and CK got it from her.We were given a week's time to select 6 schools of our choice and we had great great difficulty in choosing secondary schools.Here PSLE result slip itself tells us which schools our kids are eligible.There are 3 different streams and each takes a different educational pathway leading to different  destinations.Arshi was offered express stream.We have chosen schools that were near by.There were good schools that were far away but we considered distance as kids will be very stressful with loaded curriculum and CCA activities to do.Secondary school posting results will be out by Dec 19 and they need to report to their new sec school by Dec 20 .Fingers crossed as this is a waiting period for us as we aren't sure if she will get school of her choice.

At this moment I thank all her teachers who have helped her so far .I just pray to God that he blesses her with a great future and whichever school she goes she enjoys it and she comes as a great human being- a school where she will enjoy,excel in her academic activities and at the same timr that enhances her overall character too.She will miss her primary school very much and of course her close friends whom she had been traveling for 6-9 years  so far.
