Why Parents Choose Kangaroo Study ?

1. Achievement Highlights

After joining Kangaroo Study, our students have achieved outstanding results, both in school assessments and math Olympiad competitions. Many of our students rank top in their class and have performed exceptionally well in prestigious competitions such as SASMO, SMKC, SIMOC, and AMC8. In the GEP selection, a large percentage of our students successfully advanced to Round 2, with several gaining admission into the GEP programme.

2. Trusted by Parents

We are grateful for the continuous positive feedback from parents of our P2 – P3 students. Many have shared their appreciation for the carefully structured curriculum and for our teacher’s dedication. Parents often tell us how much their children are enjoying maths lessons now and how noticeably their confidence and results have improved since joining Kangaroo Study.

Two Key Learning Goals for P2 Students

Starting from 2026, the selection round of GEP test will officially be removed. This means P2 students will no longer need to sit for the full two-round GEP selection process.

However, Round 1 screening will still remain, and may still be used by many schools as a reference for streaming students into different classes. That’s why it’s still important for students to prepare well and maintain a strong foundation early on.

Based on the common expectations and learning needs of P2 students, our programme is specially designed with two main goals in mind:

1. Getting Ahead with Strategic Content

As students progress through the levels, the scope of maths gets broader, and the level of difficulty increases.

To help students stay sharp and confident when they go through the streaming phase in P3, we’ve preemptively introduced tougher P3 topics during P2 in a strategic and structured way. This would help build familiarity and give students a strong head start.

The topics highlighted in the chart below are the key topics we will cover during Semester 2.

2. Building a Strong Foundation for Word Problems

Word Problems play a major role in primary school maths, accounting for more than 40% of the GEP selection test. With such a heavy weightage, it's something we really can't afford to overlook.

In previous Semester 1 to June holiday classes, we’ve already covered multiple conditions, hidden conditions, and started on simple modelling techniques. Students have explored more advanced and interesting problem types, such as chicken and rabbit questions and logic-based word problems, which help them build strong habits in solving complex problems.

Now In Semester 2, we’ll deepen their exposure to classic word problems and introduce real-life contexts. This will sharpen their overall thinking and nurtures visual problem-solving skills.

This whole journey is designed to help students construct a solid foundation and framework for handling word problems effectively.
