If you read the MOE website -
How are MOE awards given ?

Answer -

MOE Edusave awards are given by (level first and then by COURSE ).


Are GEP and Mainstream, the same course or different course ?

Their curriculum are totally different. Can we lump all the ( Mainstream + GEP students ) together, to be assessed inside the same common pool ?
Obviously, cannot !

Means
they are separately assessed.

GEP students will have their own Top 10 % cohort (for each level GEP students, from P4 to P6) ,

while

Mainstream students will also have their own 10% cohort, by level. Mainstream got nothing to do with GEP.

Therefore, the answer to your question, is

split by level, for GEP (P4 to P6), Top 10%. Nothing to do with Mainstream.

Example

In Raffles Girls' Primary,
Total,
how many GEP classes are found there, say, at P5 level ?

Total, only 2 classes, ie. 5P and 5Q ? Last time, in year 2014, RGS used to have Total 3 GEP classes (P, Q and R) ?

Assuming that
say, each GEP class is small sized, have around 25 pupils, per class.
So, 2 classes will be Total, around (2 X 25), equal 50 pupils ?
That means P5 level GEP cohort will have around .... 50 students.


So, means that
for GEP RGPS P5 level,
out of Total two GEP classes available, the Top 10% P5 GEP cohort will also receive Edusave award, accordingly,
to whatever RGPS criteria that's been defined. Can approach RGPS school Principal, how she define the Top 10% cohort criteria. These 2 GEP classes got nothing to do with rest of the Mainstream classes.

Thanks Phtthp! Another grandmaster sharing expertise with noobs like me! Whatever it is, I’ll just ask DC to take this as a form of encouragement and not think too much into it

10% of school cohort (gep + non gep)

Based on primary sch experience witnessing both GEP kids getting awards & non-GEPs.

Thanks for the reply! I thought 10% of school cohort makes the most sense but a friend told me it’s 10% of school gep cohort. DC also said there are at least more than 10 other better gepper classmates out of a total cohort of 50+.

Hi, does anyone know how is the percentage calculated for the gep cohort please? Is it:


1. Eg 10% of entire gep cohort
2. 10% of school cohort (gep + non gep)
3. 10% of school’s gep cohort?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, anyone staying at Toa Payoh/Kallang and registering at Mee Toh? Looking at tranport options to share private school bus with.

I have alumni status for both. The distance is the deterrent

Hiya, anyone staying at Toa Payoh/Kallang area and looking at either Mee Toh or Rulang? Trying to see if either school is an option by looking for other crazy parents to share private school bus with.
