For RGS when they call for interview did they change the status in online account.

The school sent an email to notify about the interview. It will take some time for the online account to be uplated but it will change to \"To attend interview\".

What's your definition of \"Change the Sports, from year to year \"?


If you are asking whether Secondary schools via DSA, change their Sports from year to year :-
For existing ones : they won't change

But for new ones, they may add new Sports in

Example

Say, X Secondary school last time don't have Hockey, for DSA

But if school X today want to add in or include Hockey as a new Sports DSA, Yes, they can.

But think carefully, first.

Once you accept DSA :
the commitment is either 4 years or 6 years, depending on which Sec school offer

Actually this is not correct. There are a few changes this year, some schools did take away a few sports from their DSA list. For example, Judo, Gymnastics (Trampoline) and Shooting were one of the DSA sports for RGS (and probably NYGH too) last year, but this year, these sports were taken out.

Thank you...So I guess the best way is to really do the Open House next year and check it out...

Well, maybe, but it may not help. For example, for RGS, during their open house this year, nothing was said about the sports they intend to exclude from the DSA exercise. It was only when MOE announces the commencement of the DSA-Exercise (in May) that it was known (to public) that certain sports/domains were excluded (or included) in some schools.

I feel open house never give that exact info. It is only through dsa application the final details are given.

Hope this helps.
