PSLE COP 2009

[xxjustakidxx]

verykiasu2010:

for NYPS girls to get into NYGH under affiliation scheme, the minimum T-score must be 250 and above


To maintain the affiliation is to help continue the culture and values of the Nanyang family of schools.

NYGH was founded as a non-government school which became a government aided school, part of the funding is from donors, they have their board of governors while RGS / RI is a purely government school

RGS, RI, NYGH, HCI are all independent schools. NJC, DHS, RVHS are government aided.

Who decides the COP? Individual schools? If a student scores more than the COP then is there a guarantee that he/she will get into the school or is there again a dependency on the number of vacancies?

The market decides the COP. Essentially, the reported COP is the lowest t-score that a school has accepted that year. The COPs are not decided by the schools.

To conclude: COP for a given year is established AFTER all students have already been posted. It is then reported to give a crude guideline for the next year's intake to think about.

Hi it doesn't work the way you describe. It is NOT \"determined\" upfront. Instead, the COP is the PSLE score of the last student who is allocated a place in the school.

What this COP is will be determined primarily by the popularity of the school. The more students applying for for a particular school, the higher COP will be (and vice versa).

But generally speaking, the COP of past batches is usually quite a good gauge of what the COP will be.
