It should be the secondary school that proposes to MOE and then MOE will look at their plans and approve it.

just to share since my older DD is in RGS. Nationally, since there are fewer and fewer students in each cohort, this also affects numbers each school can take. (I don't mean through DSA but overall). Her cohort had one less class than previous cohort.
RGS just went through an exericse, including consultation with many groups, before deciding to trim/ merge some CCAs, including a couple of sports. I don't know if these sports had DSA route but i figure this is one example of how schools do have to tweak their DSA priorities from year to year.

The issue is, if the school had went through the exercise and had decided on which CCA to trim/merge (which I'm sure it would have been at least days if not weeks before MOE announced the DSA-Exercise), they should have informed the respective coaches in advance or at least announce that during open house to prospective parents and students. As another KSP parent mentioned earlier, it seems like even the coaches weren't inform about the changes until the start of the DSA-Exercise. If this is how schools going to tweak their DSA priorities from year to year, then :roll:

Hi bbcat,


Moe said they want talent to be more evenly distributed across Sg schools.

So, is this Shooting DSA only taken out of RGS DSA domain, or taken out of ALL the Sg sec schools dsa including say, remove Shooting out of other schools like National Junior College DSA domain, too ?

njc website for DSA stated shooting as one of the sports tho.

It is so nice to hear from you

So, MOE or certain school remove Shooting from their own school, not across the board, for Shooting dsa.
