Hi, I tried to log in to GAT website since yesterday for GAT resgistration but encounter this error message that forbade me to proceed further -

“The precondition on the request for the URL /register/yr1/index.php evaluated to false. Additionally, a 412 Precondition Failed error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.”
that forbade me to proceed further for making payment . :scratchhead:
Seems like the URL having problem ? Anyone counter this issue ? Many thanks in advance.

Thanks for the notes , in fact I had already called and emailed them during that weekend that I posted this query as they only operates on weekdays hence I was thinking anyone faced the same issue as me , but fortunately PA replied me on the next working day , everything has been resolved and I had register successfully. Thank you for your responses .

Hihi Parents,


Me also 1st time psle parent here. Still considering whether to apply for DSA at catholic high.

Have some questions & hope some experienced parents here can help as i couldn't find the info i want at moe website on this:-

1) what will happen if ds results don't meet the catholic high COP but already being offered a place thru DSA? will he get disqualified? I need to know what is next if don't meet cop.

Thanks in advance!

If he gets a CO from Catholic High, he'll need to confirm his acceptance before PSLE scores are revealed. Then the only criteria he needs to fulfil from his PSLE scores is to qualify for the Express stream and not fall below that. The actual cut off psle show should not affect his confirmed place in Catholic High anymore.

Can I ask -


If we submit online, and school requires hard copy before closing, do we still need to keep another copy if called for interview?

Hard copy only required during interview.
Online submission no need.

My DS wants to appear to RI Sports DSA , but we are apprehensive about the RI sports DSA. Can someone advice

1) is the course of sports IP and academic IP students different

2) when a student is selected in sports DSA then do they have CCA Everyday or it is only few days a week ?

Any advice would be helpful.

Google or read about national badminton player Ryan Tay (I believe that's his surname) who was previously fr RI but had to switch to Spore Sports School as he was struggling with studies due to lack of academic support fr teaching staff esp when he had to kiss lessons during competitions.

Consider carefully the rigors of academic vis-a-vi's sports demands. Talk through thoroughly whether that's what your child can go through doing 6 years of sports & the possible need to do extr catching up after returning fr competitions.

I'll leave other subject matter experts to answer your second question.

All the best to your child.
