Dear Parents/Guardian, REVISED SCHOOL-BASED ASSESSMENT PLAN FOR 2020 (SEMESTER 2) – PRIMARY 1 & 2 In view of the disruptions in this year’s academic calendar and schedule due to the COVID-19 pandemic, revisions have been made to our Semester 2 assessment plans. Please refer to Annex A for more information on the assessment of the various learning outcomes in Semester 2, including the different non-weighted assessment tasks that your child/ward would be taking in the semester. In addition to the assessment tasks reflected in Annex A, our teachers will also continue to gather information about your child’s/ward’s learning at various checkpoints (such as daily in-class work and discussions, homework, bite-sized tests, as well as observation of and interaction with your child/ward) to support his/her learning, gauge his/her learning progress, and address the learning gaps. If for some reason, your child misses an assessment task, we will allow him/her to do the affected assessment task wherever possible. Our subject teachers may also make alternative arrangements with students to cater to their learning needs, including getting students to catch up on the lessons that they have missed. It is important that you encourage your child/ward to focus on learning and not whether the assessment is counted towards the overall subject results or not. You can help us by affirming your child’s/ward’s efforts and progress made, as well as inculcating in your child/ward good study habits such as completing assignments in a timely manner. We thank you for your partnership with the school in developing your child/ward. Please feel free to contact your child’s/ward’s Form Teachers at 6783 0427 or write to us at [email protected] should you require further clarification. Yours sincerely, ____________ Mrs Selina Lee Vice-Principal

With the removal of all weighted assessments at Primary 1 and Primary 2, our school is using subject-specific learning outcomes (LOs) and a common set
of qualitative descriptors (QDs) to report our students’ learning progress for all subjects. These aim to help parents better understand your child’s learning
progress in each subject. The QDs describe varying levels of student attainment for a specific LO.
Below are the general descriptions of student attainment levels via QDs:
