PSLE Maths

Ask any singapore parents and kids the four words that dread they most 

And answer be P S L E 


Akshta appeared for PSLE in 2019. Maths paper caused huge uproar in the social media so much so that after a year  CNA made documentary on PSLE maths .

I was aware about singapore education and importance of Akshta to study in Singapore  but I had no inkling about the criticality of PSLE that make or disturb child’s  future . In a way , I was happy with my ignorance . We let Akshta enjoy her childhood fun of  Ice Skating ,Creative Arts , Swimming , Ballet without getting boxed into maths,science and English .


Start of PSLE year was not happy with Akshta dislocating  her knee. But we put everything in PSLE year including extra tuitions beginning with Science , later maths and English too. Was it sheer efforts , commitment , hard work , talent , accessibility and affordability of   resources or slice of luck  . Perhaps combination of all these . Akshta managed to get in the top bracket that would get her into integrated program . IP allows high-performing PSLE students  to skip the GCE Ordinary Level (O-level) examination (typically taken by students at the end of their fourth or fifth year in secondary school) and proceed to sit for the GCE Advanced Level (A-level) . 


From neighbourhood primary school to elite downtown school . In two years , Akshta has matured by a decade .
