Subject-Based Banding (SBB)
Students who did not perform well in Primary 4 Examinations
- Streamed into EM3 classes in Primary 5 and 6- Took all subjects at the foundation level- Might take Mother Tongue (MT) at
the standard level if they were strong in MT
Previous System (before 2008)
Subject-Based Banding (SBB)
To recognise the different abilities of students
- Provide more flexibility in subject combinations for students with strengths and abilities that vary across subjects
Removal of Merged and EM3 streams in Primary 5 and 6
Why introduce Subject-Based Banding?
Subject-Based Banding (SBB)
Greater flexibility in subject combinationsYour child has the choice to take a
combination of standard and foundation subjects, depending on his strengths
What Subject-Based Banding means to your child
Subject-Based Banding (SBB)
Providing our weaker pupils a differentiated curriculum that would best maximise their potential.
These pupils may have particular strengths, and we should develop them as much as possible by offering them specific
subjects at a higher (standard) level of study.
Rationale and Intent
Subject-Based Banding (SBB)
Foundation subjects put focus on mastery of core content and skills.
These are pitched at a lower level as compared to the corresponding standard subject.
Standard vs. Foundation Subject
