      why is haig girls open house on weekday... so difficult to take leave if every school does it on weekdays. 😞


      having it during weekdays have it's advantage too. You can really see how all the pupils behave there to have a better feel of how the sch environment is.

                      We need the precise figures for 2012, 2011, 2010 -
                      Ie. quality percentage passes (number of a and a*), for all subjects (3 mother tongue tamil /malay / chinese, plus English/Maths/science).

                      The vertical bar charts shown do not provide the detailed figures in %.
                      Neither is it shown in the Facebook. We need full details, for all subjects.

                      Do you have them ?
                      Appreciate if parents from Haig girls primary can provide. ESP. Those from p4 to p6.

                      According to :-
                      http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/singapore-primary-schools-ranked-academic-excellence

                      Haig girls is ranked #29.
                      Ngee Ann is ranked #60.
                      Chij (katong convent) is ranked #75.
                      Tanjong katong beyond 100th position ...

                      However, all these were in the past.
                      How about the latest past 3 years (2012, 2011, 2010)?
                      Thus, we need the latest years' cuurent up-to-date Haig girls results.

                      Thank you.
