Dear Parents/Guardian Preparation for SA1 – Secondary 1

The Mid-year examination will begin from 27 Apr (Thu) to 28 Apr (Fri) and from 8 May (Mon) to 12 May (Fri). To ease the Secondary One students’ transition to the secondary school learning environment, they will be examined in only four subjects namely, English Language, Mother Tongue Language, Mathematics and Science for the Mid-year examination. A copy of your child’s/ward’s SA1 schedule and the school's examination guidelines are attached for your reference. Please note that lessons will proceed as per normal from 2 May (Tue) till 5 May (Fri). To provide timely and important information for your child’s/ward’s Mid-year examination preparation, we have also included the format and list of topics that will be tested for various subjects during Mid-year examination. All students are required to report to school at the usual timing of 7.20 am if they have been scheduled to take the first paper of the day at 8.00 am. If students have been scheduled to take the paper at a later time in the morning, they must report to school at least half an hour before the start of the paper. Your child/ward will be dismissed from school immediately after he/she has completed all his/her paper(s) for the day. After the completion of the 2017 Mid-year examination, please note that marking day falls on 15 May (Mon). Your child/ward need not report to school on that day. From 16 May (Tue) to 26 May (Fri), your child/ward will have to report to school as usual for post-examination activities/lessons. Please contact the Year Head, Assistant Year Head or Exam Committee IC at 68793930 or send them an email at [email protected] should you require any further clarification:

Examination Guidelines

Please refer to the Student Handbook 2017, page 27 – 36, for the instructions for

candidates taking internal examination. With reference to the SEAB instructions for school

candidates taking national examination in 2017, the following instructions will be added on to

the instructions for candidates taking internal examination:

1) It is compulsory for candidates to sit for all registered components of a subject.

Components include Oral, Listening Comprehension, Coursework, Practical

and Written Papers. Candidates will be issued 'Absent’ for a subject if they are

absent from one or more components of that subject unless they have been granted

prior exemption for the component(s) by the examining authority.

2) Special Consideration (SC) and arrangement for sick candidates:

a) Students who sit for the examination (be it Written / Oral / Listening etc) may apply

for SC. All applications must be submitted to the school, not more than 3 days after

the examination.

b) If the application for SC is for a missed paper, the candidate must have

completed a minimum of 50% of the total assessment of the subject. The

applications must be supported by a medical report / statement from a qualified

medical practitioner or relevant supporting documents (e.g. death certificate). The

medical report / statement must clearly state the doctor's diagnosis and certify that

the candidate was unfit for examination. Medical certificate without the doctor's

diagnosis is not a valid supporting document. A separate SC Application Form is

required for each subject.

c) The SC Application Form must be submitted together with the supporting medical

report / statement to the CPE through the Form Teacher.

d) The applications for SC are subjected to the Exam Committee approval.
