Commentary: PSLE stress – a question of not too much, not too little

WHAT WE CAN DO TO CARING People

The full worth of a person cannot possibly remain determined by analyzing them all at once, but this may not be clear from where the kids are standing. It is the responsibility of parents to help their children understand the significance of examination.

This brings us back to the good ol’ Goldilocks: Not too much- when people apply for jobs, results of 12 year olds don’t frequently come into play. Not too little – levels however matter inasmuch as they create opportunities for the upcoming academic year.

What does the ideal appearance entail? It will take a whole-system approach to alter the attitude of PSLE as the be – both and end-all. Teachers, administrators, and parents can emphasize specific progress over contrast with some even with the new PSLE scoring system, which takes into account the animal’s success regardless of how their peers performed.

Additionally, it might mean parents practicing good self-care techniques at house, reminding kids of their power, breaking down complex ideas into manageable chunks, and most importantly, reassuring them that they are deserving of love and capable of making a difference in society regardless of how well they perform on the PSLE.

While it is our responsibility to oversee our children’s academic progress, we also need to support them in taking a step up and seeing the big photo. There may be 12 time until this interview, among many others, but after it, there are a ton more days to learn, explore, and develop.
