Subject-based Banding NURTURING EVERY CHILD
Subject-based Banding • Implemented national wide in 2007. • Every child will be encouraged to do the subjects at the levels that best meet his/ her abilities • Standard level subjects • Foundation level subjects • Removal of streams in Primary 5 and 6 • EM3 and merged streams
Why introduce SBB? • To provide more flexibility to pupils with strengths and abilities that vary across subjects • To encourage greater interaction among pupils with different strengths • A class can have a combination of children taking foundation as well as standard papers but will do common non-core subjects. • Band during the core subjects lessons
