dd2 won't be taking 3rd lang. Actually try to excel in Chinese can liao lah. This is Singapore's future direction isn't it? Even the angmo can speak Mandarin

jetsetter:

PS: China is our largest trading partner.

Agreed. Rather she focus on her Chinese.

Need urgent advise.


NYPS girl with T-Score 248 + 2, get into NYGH? Anyone can confirm this?

(Affiliation COP is 250)

The NYPS principal told me must put it as first choice, is it true that NYGH takes in all NYPS girls score 250 and above? The remaining will go to Non NYPS.

Thank you very much!

Hi, my first post here as I cannot find the information anywhere... anyone knows if any kids get to choose Japanese as third language with T-score of 251 or below?

It will be indicated in the S1 option form if you are eligible. I think for the Cat 3 3rd Language, only the top 10% is eligible, so it depends on where the top 10% COP is for that year. May differs from year to year.

Thank you. Do we have info about last years' 10% COP?

And if we have last year's info, we can have a good estimate whether the COP this year for the schools will go up or down.

Yes. I think that is how the system works. To get into your affiliated school( via the discounted cop), you need to put it as your first choice. Yes, after admitting all the eligible affliliated girls, the rest of the vacancies will go to the public.

Try Swiss Cottage or Fairfield (Not sure of your distance)
Commonwealth
Kranji (think twice.. School undergoing major renovations next year. Will be at holding school in Teck Whye.)
Clementi Town

Hope this helps..

Does anyone know of specific evidence (from their own school's reporting of results) that the average PSLE scores went up from 2015 to 2016? When we attended our son's school's PSLE results session yesterday, no information was shared at all...Very difficult to have a sense of how to select secondary schools without this information...Thanks!

For my DD's sch highest score went up, number of students scoring 250 & abv also went up.
