Some Guiding PrinciplesSome Guiding Principles
• The school will have the best interest of each child in mind
• The school will proceed on the basis of the `best fit’ for each child
• All pupils will be encouraged to stretch themselves for the more challenging subject combinations instead of taking a perceived easy way out if they are able to do so

• Understand the abilities and needs of your child
• Understand the scoring system for PSLE
• Understand the future pathways for your child (e.g. to qualify for polytechnic education, a pass in Mathematics at `O’ levels is needed)

How will PSLE scores be How will PSLE scores be calculated? calculated?
• The PSLE scoring system remains unchanged
• The raw mark for each subject is converted to a transformed score (T-score)– The T-score reflects the pupils’ standing
relative to other pupils on a common scale
– The Aggregate Score is the sum of the T-score in all subjects
– Each subject carries equal weighting
![Page 22: Subject-based Banding Canossa Convent Primary](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081421/56813ad1550346895da2fd91/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How will PSLE scores be How will PSLE scores be calculated? calculated?
• The PSLE score takes into account the
– content and demand of each subject
– number of subjects taken
