DSA 2017
-
Hi Just wondering how do we know when will the school be offering DSA ?
-
usually around May each year, around that time of preparing for P6 SA1 exam :
parents & P6 students will get excited, start to gear themselves up, get ready for DSA (for those who are keen to DSA, into Secondary schools)
around May, schools also start to post on their website, information about DSA invitation, invite you down to their schools’ Open House, have a feel of their school culture, talk to the Teachers & Seniors there, and show you what CCAs they have to offer -
Hi, just joining this thread to learn more about DSA next year. Haven’t decided whether my DD shd go through DSA process though she is vy keen on trying…

I read in the news that there will be changes to DSA (more emphasis on sports and other talent). This will be announced in 2017, timing of implementation is unknown. Anybody has any updates ?

Well, there's very little you can do about it in these areas if you have not already done something.
Just take it in your stride and hope that your competition isn't any better

Last year I was waiting for a similar announcement in tandem with the change from t-score to AL banding but nothing substantial was announced.
Out of selfish reasons, I hope that any implementation will take place only after 2018. Another 10 months or so will be the 2017 PSLE, too late to train to qualify for sports or special talent DSA.
DD2 loves to read and has chosen librarian for her CCA. Got passion but 没前途. Should have pushed her to join a DSA-able activity like dancing etc.
