Tks n DS has to do well in sa2 at first prior consider dsa.

My friend’s daughter visited the school in P5 and like it so much that she set her goal, put in effort and do well to get in. If your child has any leadership quality is also a plus point in his/her DSA.

Unfortunately DS does not attain any leadership role; anyway in worse case, put resources onto psle result to enter.

Btw one thing I like about njc is their academic programme in website can be found n well detailed n able to know subjects better; unable to get such info from other ip schools. A positive move

With ri n hci secure top 2 pole positions, njc has to be competitive against Vjc, tjc while dhs n rvs catching up the ranks. Next to watch is chs-snic-scgs ip n with their calibre, it will be strong fight for top 5.

Hi, there is an open house this coming October, it's sort of a school tour. I intend to sign up for my ds who is now in P5. Their registration did not indicate which level so I had call up the school to find out and they said its mostly for the P6 student.


I'm not sure if its advisable to go or wait for next year. May I know any parents still sign up for their child who is in P5 as I really like my ds and even me to know more abt this sch to prepare him for next year. Thanks.

You should start the school tours in P5, since you'll find that many of the top school's tour dates clash directly with each other (don't think NJC is one of them). E.g. HCl's tour tend to clash with RI. Also you'll still have time to motivate your child to get into their dream school.

If I am not wrong, RV and DHS are above TJC in the pecking order for the past 2-3 years. Very close fight among NJC, RV and DHS. They are fast closing the gap to VJC.

My younger one is in P4 and will go for this Oct NJC school tour. Next year we will go for NUS, RI & HCI open house. I am reluctance to go for Sap School like RV, DHS, HCI cause hear that Chinese literature is really difficult. Although my elder boy got an 'A', I know he will still be struggling with it. He will not be able to compete with China students on this language and he need the time to revise others new subject.


Important: Your child must like the school not us. :lovesite: Also the distant between school & home is important factor to consider.

Hi, my elder boy is in NJC, 4th year.

Not sure if u r aware, though NJC is not a SAP sch, all year 1 and year 2 students take Higher Mother Tongue which is a compulsory subject. We were told by the school that at end of year 2, those who are really very weak in the HMT would be offered MT, not HMT.
