* Eunoia JC (EJC)

The MOE letter did not mention any mitigation actions. It just briefly state will look into transport arrangement. We need to know what MOE plan to do for this group of students. What happen if the"soil investigation" failed by the end of 2015??


I don’t agree that 17 years old do not care where is the school. My boy told me that his seniors are very upset about the change in the holding site as distance really matters to them since nowadays the school hours is so long and by the time they reach home, it will be very late.

Also, the issue voice down to Choice. For "O" level students, they have a choice to select a school. So, if they choose a school that is far away from home, they are prepared to travel. However, for IP students, they were informed of the location of the holding site and the new JC and voila… suddenly it now it turns out to be going to Ghim Moh (not sure if the students even have an idea where is this in the first place) and also dunno when the new JC will be ready (well… end 2019 is NOT a confirmed date). But they are stuck with no choice.

Try walking under the hot sun with a heavy school bag… try squeeze with the rest to catch the MRT during peak hours. It may not be only that extra 7 stations from Bishan or 15min walk from BV MRT.

I strongly urge MOE to arrange a conversation with the affected parents and not just send some high-level letter.

I do agree that arranging a conversation with the affected parents and students is the least MOE could do.

Don’t mean to rub it in…Turn out it is a blessing that some parents like me had rejected to be placed in IP program at Catholic high in fav of the O level track. This despite our boys met the T-score for IP program.

Why are there multiple signatures by one person?

let's hope that PM Lee HL will come to the rescue : at least, switch back to Bishan ITE as temp site.

can understand how the affected students feel, staying in Sengkang, Yishun, etc

Maybe due to systen lag...not sure if the Admin can remove the duplicates.

At the thought of Mount Sinai and time taken to travel from Yishun, will cry! Cannot rent nor sell our place to shift there as I have another boy studying in the north. How??
