What are some valid reasons for appeal to school (not moe) that the school will accept/consider? DD wishes to get into this school but t-score didnt meet COP.

I happen to read this post so want to contribute that if a child has learning disorders, and has been posted with a school who does not support special learning needs like attention deficit Dyslexia or other learning disorder ( name the Mild SEN in PSLE Booklet given by MOE ) . Other reasons are for health

kidney problems and handicapped children.

read this extract from MOE PSLE booklet

Students with PD or mild SEN who are not posted to an appropriate-resourced school listed above may apply for a transfer. Such students should first report at the secondary school that they were posted to on the next working
day after the release of posting results, and apply for school transfer there. All applications must be accompanied with the relevant supporting documents, as follows:

a. PD - An assessment of the student’s condition and needs from a qualified medical professional. It should clearly describe the extent of disability (e.g. temporary, permanent) and the type of assistive
device that the child is currently using (e.g. wheelchair, crutches).

b. Mild SEN - A comprehensive report written by a relevant professional (e.g. psychologist, speech and language therapist). It should indicate the nature of the disability with supporting evidence for the
diagnosis and provide clear description of the student’s current functioning and limitations, together with recommendations for support and intervention. Other documents may include a school report from the student’s primary school providing additional background to his/her condition and any other
relevant documents. MOE will consider appeals for transfer to a school resourced to support mild SEN only if that school is included as one of the student’s original choice of secondary school.

Thanks for the info. Besides medical reasons, what other reasons are acceptable? Any idea?
