I strongly believe pap meritocracy is fake. Otherwise lawyer with disciplinary charges will not be kept as a MP and continue to draw his salary.

Recently news also said a group of parents complained to MOE about dubious PSLE marking system and MOE just gave lip service.
Poor students believing in meritocracy but their math papers were marked carelessly and unfairly.

Good luck to Nan Hua students and hopefully they will continue to work hard and fight the unjust system when they grow up!!!

So coincidental ? I studied statistics in my university and I know this kind of scenario is impossible to happen and it happens only because of systematic error which MOE must have the courage to review and to admit to their mistakes.

The 11 parents said in the letter that their children had always scored 95 marks and above for their maths exams in school, or the equivalent of Achievement Level (AL) 1.

But for this year’s PSLE maths paper, they were shocked to find that their children had scored AL 3, AL 4 or AL 5.

“If a single child’s carelessness caused them to stumble on the exam, we have nothing to say. But when almost a third of the students in the class have a similar score gap, it’s hard not to be puzzled,” the letter read.

The parents said they had appealed to the Ministry of Education (MOE) and SEAB through the school for a review of the exam papers, but were told that the success rate of past appeals was almost zero.

Students from India can come here with fake certificates but students in Singapore are given such treatment. What can we say about our system ?

If MOE found out there is and admit mistake in marking these 11 students math paper, then the rest of other parents would completely lost trust in all the markings. So, MOE die die must not admit the mistake if there really is.

Wong Kan Seng became a minister. That's all you need to know about PAP's 'meritocracy'. :roflmao:

These poor nan hua students, working hard and yet being marked unjustly. They should apply for scholarships in other countries and settle down there. Don’t come back to this country since they are so bright and smart, consistently scored 95% and above in all their school tests.
