Progression to secondary level depends on PSLEScore– This cohort of P4 Pupils will undergo the revised PSLE
scoring system
– Different expectations of standard and foundationsubjects will be taken into account when the PSLEscore is calculated
Offering weaker subjects at foundation level isnot a disadvantage.– Your child will be able to focus on building up strong
fundamentals in the weaker subjects

Subject-based Banding and Secondary School admission
![Page 25: P4 Meet-the-Parents Session · Uniquely P4 3. Values in Action (VIA) –Project Buddy Clean 4. Beyond School: Heritage Visit –Kampong Glam P4 Overseas Learning Journey –Trip to](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081406/5f145cf685e542409833c1db/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Change from PSLE T-score to wider scoringbands aims to reduce overly-fine differentiationin examination scores and over-emphasis onacademic results.
It will also be more reflective of a pupil’s levelof achievement in relation to learningobjectives of the curriculum and is not basedon pupil’s performance relative to that ofhis/her peer.
The New PSLE Scoring System
![Page 26: P4 Meet-the-Parents Session · Uniquely P4 3. Values in Action (VIA) –Project Buddy Clean 4. Beyond School: Heritage Visit –Kampong Glam P4 Overseas Learning Journey –Trip to](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081406/5f145cf685e542409833c1db/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Pupil’s raw mark for each subject is convertedinto a scoring band called an AchievementLevel (AL), with AL1 being the best score andAL8 being the lowest score.
The total of the ALs will be the PSLE SCORE
( Between 4 to 32)
The New PSLE Scoring System
![Page 27: P4 Meet-the-Parents Session · Uniquely P4 3. Values in Action (VIA) –Project Buddy Clean 4. Beyond School: Heritage Visit –Kampong Glam P4 Overseas Learning Journey –Trip to](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081406/5f145cf685e542409833c1db/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
