when do they introduce International syllabus? I only know it as a private secondary school previously. Any recent review of the school with the current principal?

QUOTE(iSean @ Apr 11 2017, 06:43 PM) It has a lot of branches. what is KBAT/HOTSAnd affiliated with MCKL with their A-Level programs. But to be honest, international syllabus is nothing, when your child can self study your own or attend tuition classes for it. Better save a few bucks and let the child to do tuition instead. In terms of syllabus, Cambridge O-Level/IGCSE < SPM for Sciences, Maths wise, IGCSE/O-Level > SPM. But SPM is slowly improving and emphasizing on KBAT/HOTS for STEM subjects. But with compulsory subjects like Sejarah and Moral in SPM, still quite "meh" only. But new syllabus like Computing are being added into the new SPM Syllabus along with a few foreign languages. IGCSE/O-Level > SPM what are the new foreign languages added to SPM? |

QUOTE(iSean @ Apr 12 2017, 05:47 PM) Despite what you think, SPM's memorize to pass "Paper 3" is quite useful for A-level Science Paper 3 and Paper 5. Thanks mate! I wonder how the foreign language works and why they don't introduce it at Secondary One. Anyway, I prefer my kid to learn in English rather than Bahasa medium. Now, even an oldie like me when I think of spelling klorofil, I would remember bahasa spelling rather than chlorophyill. What more other scientific words.With some proper training from Titration skills and using other lab apparatus they are set for A-Level Paper 3. Cambridge O-Level ok abit but Cambridge IGCSE is a joke. Trust me, especially to those who did (Alternative to Practical) Written Practicals. Those Cambridge IGCSE people who went to Science Stream in A-Levels struggled a lot. Even with A*s is like a great leap from SPM to STPM. EdExcel IGCSE let's not mention about them I need to tutor my friends Physics, and Chemistry tons of times, especially in Planning Experiment and Practical Skills. Even borrow my SPM References to let them learn how to properly write procedures for Paper 5. Anyhow, the new Language subjects added are as follows: ![]() Not sure will be added to all schools based on Teachers availability to teach or what. Also will there be an alternative easier "learners" version of the Language. https://www.facebook.com/163762123712752/ph...?type=3&theater |

QUOTE(iSean @ Apr 26 2017, 06:55 PM) KBSM -> English Syllabus for Maths and Science I see... That explains why some private school of my neighbour suddenly changed from BM to BI mediumKSSM -> Malay Syllabus for Maths and Science Do note now is the transition period where the kids choose between BM/BI or Campur medium. PS. KSSM is now the new syllabus already rolled out for Tingkatan 1. Your kid in Primary now for Primary 1 will be using KSSR, while > Primary 2-6 still using KBSR. |
