NYPS GEP students do not get special treatment during PSLE!

https://www.zaobao.com.sg/znews/singapore/story20191007-995114

As this news article on Zaobao states, NYPS GEP students "get unfair treatment" compared to the rest of the cohort.

However, most of these claims are fabricated since we GEP students:

-did not take our examinations in the classroom (instead, the PSLE were taken in a different examination hall due to the large cohort size)

-had to place our heads on the table for a 1.5h period (like the mainstream students)
-were not brought to a separate room to play games

-took the examinations and spent the post-examination period in the same conditions as the mainstream classes did

-were unable to talk until we were released

A student was consoled by teachers when he/she cried because he/she was upset about the Mathematics paper, but the child was extremely distraught due to the difficulty of the paper.

In conclusion, we feel that this Zaobao news article is targeting us and should be taken down. Please sign this petition and share it. Thank you.
