Hi, spoopy5,

Hi, 24hr_mum,

Hi gardenia64,

Thank you.

Hi Parents


Can I check with you if it rains in the morning, which gate is the best to drop my DD (i.e. with sheltered walkway to walk into the school)?

Currently I am dropping her off along AMK ave 2 (the gate before the bus-stop) but it is not a sheltered path.

Thanks !!

Morning,
I assume yr daughter is in Sec 1 level right.
I would say Ave 2. When it rains, Ave 2 gate will be open. Parents can drive in. There is a sheltered cover for you to alight yr daughter.

ya this year dropped a lot even for IP was wondering did we make a wrong decision to put my DD there. School didn't do much to ensure parents when we called them. sign..............

COP dropped as the affiliation COP increased by 5 points, from 225 (2013 PSLE batch) to 230 (2014 PSLE batch). As a result, fewer places were taken up by affiliated students, thus freeing up more places for external students.

Another reason could be that 2014 cop for o level being over 250 frightened off some potential applicants. I know of dd friends who didn’t apply because of the high cut-off.

Hi Crester


Thks for replying. What about the hdb carpark? I saw there is a sheltered drop off point, however I am not sure if it leads to the school compound without getting wet.

It is good to raise the COP for affliated pupils in SNGS primary higher each year, so that more vacancies are available, are freed up for outsiders to come in, for O level

Not made the COP so low at 220, as in SCGS Sec and MGS Sec last year 2014, where literally almost cut off other students from other primary schools to enter for O level. unless they have very high T-score, as though SCGS / MGS Sec have become an exclusive school for affliated primary school pupils only.
220 is a score that many, many pupils can achieve, easily.
In contrast, outsiders for O level can only enter, at close to 30 points difference !

Whatever it is, close to 30 points difference, is far too much !
Very unfair for outsiders
5 points difference, people can still accept.
But close to 30 points difference, is really way, way out !

High time for Moe to intervene, re-examine this low affliated score of
220 for SCGS.
Otherwise, going to be another similar case like ACS barker Secondary last year (2014), where outsiders were almost cut off, from entering ACS, for O level

Welcome
Yes, you can alight yr daughter at HDB Car Park 26 which has a sheltered link way into the school.
It depends which road you take in the morning.
