Do you know that Sec 1 Math is very different from PSLE Math?

Students who used to score in PSLE Math may struggle in Sec 1 Math. This is due to several factors. The transition between primary to secondary school is an overwhelming experience for many students. They have to cope with many different changes all happening at the same time. From 4 subjects in primary school, they will now take up to 9 to 10 in secondary school. Time is needed to adjust to a new environment, meeting new friends and teachers in school.

As for Secondary Math, the main challenges faced by students are learning new concepts like Negative Numbers and Algebraic Expression.

To help students transit to Secondary Math, we will be conducting our Sec 1 Headstart Programme. Our programme is conducted by experienced teachers who know best what struggles new secondary one students face. The workshop curriculum and materials are specially designed by our curriculum specialist to help your child prepare for the work in the coming academic year.

Here are the details :

The Sec 1 Headstart Programme is a 6-hours introductory programme to get students to be acquainted with the topics in secondary mathematics. The aim of the workshop is to help students to transit from Primary mathematics which focuses on visualisation (eg. Models) to Secondary mathematics which centred on equalisation (eg. Algebra)
