GEP students PSLE result

[mummyloves]

turquoise:

GEP students who maintain their GEP status in secondary school get the EESIS scholarship if they apply to go to IP schools. The EESIS scholarship is also awarded to top mainstream students.

Didn't know this! Only know that GEP can get DSA, didnt know that it comes with scholarship...

doesn't it still depends on their final PSLE score?? or all GEP students can get the scholarship if they go to IP school??

thanks for info

I always thought that their GEP status is only for their primary education. I did not know that it applies to their secondary education too. How can they maintain their GEP status in secondary school?

FYI, the so-called 'maintain their GEP status in secondary school' is practised differently in different IP schools. Most IP schools do not have classes called 'GEP' class, unlike primary schools. The kids ere simply grouped together (including some students from mainstream) and spread over a few classes. From my knowledge, NUSH, RI,HCI, RGS & NYGH do not have classes known as GEP class.

Hi Fairy,

RGS has 5 classes, unofficially called 'GEP classes'. The pupils from GEP, mainstream pupils admitted via DSA (except Sports domain) and high ability mainstream pupils (with very high PSLE scores) are allocated to these classes in Sec 1. Nevertheless, all pupils go thru the same Raffles Program in Sec 1 and 2.

Believe that it should be same in RI.

Hi…Fairy, RGS has 5 GEP classes for Secondary 1 and 2, usually from 109 until 113…as I know 113 is the TOP class…maybe top academic,maybe top sport, maybe top music.

Does anyone know what the performance of GEP students in PSLE in recent years?

[KSP]

Actually i would be more interested to see their A level results. But i don’t think this was ever available.


Like someone mentioned, most GEPpers already DSAed to top Sec Schs even before PSLE.

[Sursum]

For the current yr 1 batch at RGS, the geppers are allocated into 6 classes 108 to 113. I don’t think 113 is the top academic class and if I am not wrong, girls taking MEP are all in 113.

Being in Gep does not guarantee a confirmed offer for dsa. I knew of a few rejects.
Most of the geppers in my dd’s primary sch got above 260 for psle.

Mostly 240 and above.

How many gep students score between 240 to 250 last year?

Sorry, I am not here to reply, because, I do not know the answer. I just have one question, my understanding is that geppers still have to be TOP ? % for their PSLE in order to get scholarship even though they may get DSA into RI or HCI right? In other words, if they got DSAed but scored poorly for their PSLE, for eg, only managed a 230, they will not get any scholarship… Hope to get some reply from any kind mama…
