DSA 2017

If DSA via Sports into RI still need minimum of t score 240/250? I thought just 200 will do?

I guess we need prior knowledge to fully understand this because this is my second round of DSA

1) All IP schools will honour their COs if the DSA kid gets T scores of 200.
2) Prior to 2017, RI Sports Class is another label for RPD. DSA kids who scored T-scores between 200 to 240 will join the Sports Class/RPD. This year, RPD has been removed, so, no more Sports Class. All DSA kids will go through the RP leading to A Level and RI Diploma, unless the kids cannot cope with the RP by end of Year 2.

So, where are the sportsmen (students who DSA via Sports but didn't meet RI COP) placed in, this year? In one class or distributed randomly across different classes?

May I know if a similar situation of such streaming occurs in NJC? Thanks

Are all students in RI IP program will get both A Level and RI Diploma certificate? How the RI Diploma being graded?

You mean as in whether got any \"wait & see\" Sec 1 class, in National JC, for Sportsmen ?

But NJC don't have any O level on-demand class.

And the same question also posed for Dunman High, River Valley High, besides Temasek JC, National JC, as all these 4 are Not dual track schools.

If students cannot cope with IP academic curriculum, from Sec 1 until end of Sec 2, in above 4 schools mentioned, what do the schools do then, to help these affected IP students, who are emotionally and psychologcially, very much affected ?

Do these schools, also have \"wait and see\" Sec 1 class, monitoring them very closely ?

Appreciate, if parents from these schools, kindly share. Thank You.

I could be wrong, but it sounds like there is no more \"wait and see\" class in RI. Every one now goes into the IP classes.

But it seems that RI will not hesitate to identify the weaker students early on and move them to specially created O level classes. If I'm not wrong, one parent mentioned that she was taken around RI this year (?) by a yr 2 boy who said that he do so well and yr 1 and was shifted over to the O level track. I gather, though, that he will have chances to get himself back on the IP track if he does well in yr 2.

Sorry, I meant to say "did not do so well in yr 1"

NJC does not have any on demand O level class, if school finds a student can't cope at sec 3, they may retain them, meaning to repeat sec 3.
