Today My daughter got offer from NUSh. Now I am in a great dilemma (RGS Vs NUSH) because the travel time to NUSH is 1 hr 30 min. I have one more doubt. If she finds it difficult to continue after 2 or 3 years, is it possible for her to switch to any other Ip school?

Hi wonder mom,
I understand the dilemma that you are in. I live in Tampines. It takes me roughly 80 minutes to go to school. In fact, I have quite a few friends living in the Tampines and Pasir Ris region.
Firstly, regarding the NUSH curriculum. Your daughter would be able to transfer to other schools. One of my school mates transferred out of NUSH to RI in year 2, and transfer back from RI to NUSH in year 4. So this route is definitely open, however there are several points to note:
Your daughter would be learning from a syllabus vastly different from that of mainstream. She might learn how to solve maths and science problems in a different way. She will be ahead in content for most part of mathematics and science.
On the other hand, content and proficiency in other subjects (such as English or humanities) may be lacking. This is not necessarily due to NUSH teaching less of such subjects, but could be due to more focus given to mathematics and science.
These may be issues to consider when transferring in and out of NUSH. NUSH itself generally do not recommend students to transfer to other schools due to curriculum differences and instead provide support to students as and when needed. In addition, as grading is 40% based on exam, with the other 60% going to assignments, tests, quizzes, etc. Consistency alone can go far way in earning grades in NUSH.
