DSA 2018
-
It should be DSA 2017 right? I cant find 2017 thread…
-
This is for 2016 P4 cohort?
There are many open houses each year, how do you chose which ones to go? And what will be your evaluation criteria? Distance will be an important consideration for me. -
We visited a number of Sec school open houses with my P5 son this year. I’m glad we did. It was nice to be able to go to the schools with no stress of having to make a decision hovering over our heads. We didn’t seek out students or teachers to ask pointed questions, and attended tours and talks according to what he was interested in. We went to as many open houses as we could - we weren’t very discerning about our choices. My son ended up with a few preferences and we talk about the schools occasionally, discussing what we’d like to find out about them. We’ll revisit his shortlist again next year before we decide on which schools he wants to apply for (if the system still exists!)

Can we change the title of this thread to correctly read DSA 2017 instead of 2018?
-
Why? Maybe titank has a P4 kid and indeed meant this to
be DSA 2018 thread?

Always it is better to prepare early & not wait till the last minute like in P6 where need to run multiple open house.
Guess for a start this year maybe visit 1 or 2 open house. Open House most of the time they are fully prepared so may not actually reflect as what it is. :imcool: :imcool:
Anyone considering SCGS, St Magaret & MGS ? -
Yes, good to shortlist a few schools and go for their Open House based on proximity, the CCAs offered, the culture etc. Most people will not have time to go to that many schools.

My gal has expressed her intention to DSA via netball to Crescent Girls. Hope to gather more info on DSA process. In the meantime,she’s looking fwd to compete in next year’s games.

Badminton, Canoeing, Hockey, Netball, Softball, Track & Field) -
Reporting. DS2 & DD will be in P5 next year (2017). Target to visit a few Open House. Hopefully they don't fall on the same day again (like in DS1 time).

There are only a few weeks after SA1 and the Jun holidays which schools have their Open House, hence clash is inevitable. Thus, some parents will start bringing their kids for Open House earlier than P6. However, it is NOT impossible to visit 2 Open House in a day which I did with my DS via public transport though be prepared it will be very rushed. -

Oh My Gosh:
Don't think changes will be drastic. Only those that fall under \"academic\" talent may be affected. They will be looking for \"subject\" talent rather than general academic talent.http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/education/record-number-of-pupils-applied-for-direct-entry-to-sec-1
