                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.

                        Precise data not available. Not necessary to know to such details

                        https://www.facebook.com/HGSParent
                        Just to correct you -
                        It is ok to say \"precise data not available. \"
                        This we understand, and we can accept.

                        But to say \"not necessary to know to such details \" -
                        Afraid we need to correct you.

                        There are 2 groups of parents -
                        One group is those parents who do not bother to know, perhaps because they are not interested.
                        If you belong to this group, it is perfectly Fine !
                        Anyway, your kid already inside this school now.

                        However, there is another group of parents who truly wish to know.
                        Because they want to know the truth - before decide whether is worthwhile to give up a very popular, school in Phase 1 or 2A and go for Haig girls or not. Choosing the right school for our children is an important major decision, not play play, tikam, tikam. Next 6 years is a long time! Anyway, some parents from this group have already written in to the school via email, to request for detailed info. Some of my friends from a few kindergarten had already done so. And so did I. Because I am also one of the parents in this group considering Haig girls too. And we need actual real facts & figures before us, to help in decision making. Not depend on hear say only, \"Hey, i heard Haig Girls not bad, you know ... \"

                        But don't worry, we won't bother you.
                        Your tone here \"not necessary to know to such details\" - to me, I find it a high handed way of answering people. Perhaps info not necessary to you, but it is necessary to me.

                        Having seen the way you respond here, we would rather get the answer from Haig girls school herself.

                        Forgive me if you think I am sensitive, in your reply.
                        Peace !
