This new initiative in 2006
was closely monitored by the school.
After the 2006 P3 SA1 exams,
A review of the programme was
conducted.
Our boys showed better results
for Mathematics as compared to
results of the cohort of boys (no
banding) in 2005.

Subject teachers will compile the
homework to be given to child
when he returns.
Arrangement can be made with the
form teacher if a parent wants to
collect the homework from the
office, only if the child is on
medical leave for more than 3 days.
