2010 DSA(Direct School Admission)

[ningy]

My DD1 came home & told us that RGS is inviting the girls in her class to a tea session. Seems like RGS is quite aggresive; wonder if they will talk abt DSA during the session and I guess many schools will receive this invitation too. But my DD1 not keen on RGS - she’s eyeing the other girl school but don’t know if NYGH is organising any tea session ??

Your daughter and her friends must have very strong qualifications to be invited for tea by RGS. Is it just for selected students only?

Yes, RGS write to primary schools (don't know how many of them) to invite top few pupils of the school cohort for the tea session with the principal.
(heard that they started only when the new Principal takes over)

last year, there were a total of 4 girls fr my gal's sch being invited.
We went for the session, the principal briefed us on the school itself and off course giving data of their outstanding RI (JC) A level results.
They would definitely touch on the DSA issue.......
During the Questions and Answers session, parents asked whatever they wanna to know abt the DSA.

though my gal, same as yr gal, was not keen on RGS, we still went for the tea session to \"experience\" the atmosphere/environment of RGS..........

Every school timing is different. You need to check with the school or note the website. Most of the form will be published in the school website.
Some will even state the list of talent that they need - likes netball, hockey, etc.
