Raffles Girls' School (Secondary) [*IP]

yes, that is my understanding. 2 years ago classes seem to be by dsa domain, mix with gep girls and psle high scorers. But this is no longer the case this year.
The P often talked about how sensitive girls are and do not want any girls to feel ‘I am not in the top classes, therefore I am not as smart.’ (she said used to hear some girls saying that) Glad she is walking the talk and leading the ‘top’ schools in doing away with the streaming. -
Cbk:
Yes, applaud this great move made by Principal Poh Mun See. She should have made this move, long time ago

Yes, P made it all clear from top down, clear and transparent. No room for miscommunications, no speculations whatsoever. Even girls from same primary schools (107) are spread all over different classes.

Thank you very much, for clarification, Cbk and peasants. Appreciated

The first one month is already so busy. Normally 4/5 day she comes back at 6 pm. Trial, activity, Classes. But can feel DD can arrange time by herself.

The CCA results are out, dd not selected for any cca :slapshead:
Does she get send to whatever CCA has openings?
Anyone has experience on this -
Yes you are right. High chance of getting in UG. Why didn’t choose any? Your dd can also "walk in judo". Learn how to fend off unwanted physical advances, not much use in rgs though.

She made her selections but not selected by the cca she wanted.
Competition for clubs tough, even representing her pri school formerly also did not make the cut.
Sports that DD represented pri sch either taken out or not available by RGS
She did considered Judo but need to go external club for training plus she already has weekly tkd training, so no go.
If RGS can offer TKD same way as Judo might work for us. Will be joining NSG via RGS for TKD anyway
No physical advances in RGS but might have spot checks that she is not agreeable to. :offtopic:
