PSLE Science Tuition at Punggol | Master the Exam with eduKate

Why PSLE Science Is Challenging

The PSLE Science exam tests four years of content (P3–P6) and demands not just knowledge but application and explanation skills. According to SEAB, the exam consists of:

  • Paper 1 (MCQ, 56 marks): Speed and accuracy matter.
  • Paper 2 (OEQ, 44 marks): Requires precise keywords, structured reasoning, and application to unfamiliar contexts.

Common struggles parents notice:

  • Students know the concepts but cannot explain them clearly.
  • Weak in experimental questions, graphs, and data interpretation.
  • Consistently lose marks in OEQs for missing or vague keywords.
  • Struggle to manage time across both papers.

At eduKate Punggol, our PSLE Science tuition programme equips students to handle both content and exam strategies with confidence.

Our Proven Approach to PSLE Science

  1. Diagnostic → Customised Plan
    We begin with a diagnostic covering all syllabus themes and process skills to identify gaps.
  2. Content Consolidation
    Students review all key P3–P6 topics (Systems, Energy, Interactions, Cycles, Diversity) using visual notes, concept maps, and active recall.
  3. Answering Frameworks (CER)
    We drill Claim–Evidence–Reasoning for OEQs, plus topic-specific keyword banks.
  4. Timed Mock Exams
    Students practise full Papers 1 and 2 under exam conditions, learning pacing and accuracy.
  5. Error Analysis & Metacognition
    Scripts are analysed by error type (conceptual, keyword, careless), and each child builds a personalised “avoid list.”
  6. Confidence Coaching
    Students learn to approach the PSLE calmly, with checklists and habits that cut anxiety.
