Hi guys,

SST has not given out any info on SIE on their website yet.

It’s already the 5th of November and all they have written on the SIE 2019 page of their site is “More information about the Supplementary Intake Excersise will be released soon” and this was posted way back in September.

Does this mean there won’t be sie for SST this year?[/quote]

Hello good morning 2019 P6 pupil Nethan,

SST has just refreshed her website (SIE)

Interested applicants can submit SIE Application form, from

11 Nov (10 am) to

23 Nov (10 am)

got to wait until PSLE results are released (tentative 21 Nov 2019), subjected to vacancies

All the very, very best to you, Nethan !

for 2020 Sec 1 students (born 2007)
keen to continue pursue Higher Chinese (HCL), especially if u have sat for HCL @PSLE on 2 October 2019, SST also offer HCL lessons. And esp. if you have the intention (desire) to join the Junior College path in Year 2024 , after sitting for your O-level 4 years later, in Year 2023.

Reason ?
Once you manage to clear Higher Chinese by end of Y2023 ( O level), when go up into JC (1) in Y2024, no need to take H1 Chinese lesson in the JC anymore. Can just focus upon your core GCE \"A\" level H2 subjects (Y2024 and Y2025). Otherwise, end up burdened with tight time management, with having to handle (juggle with / tackle) H1 Chinese, over and above your core H2 subjects

For this
at Sec 3, students need to clear O-level CL (Standard Chinese) paper, and the following year
at Sec 4, need to clear O-level HCL (Higher Chinese) paper
Then, when go up into JC (1), no need to take Chinese anymore.


==================

On the other hand, those targeting alternative Polytechnic route : no need to take HCL.
To enter Polytechnic, just clear (pass) Standard Chinese.
Eg. those targeting for

- Diploma in Biomedical Science
- Diploma in Biotechnology
- Diploma in Chemical Engineering
- Diploma in Veterinary Science
- Diploma in Applied Chemistry
- Diploma in Aeronautical Engineering
- etc.


===================

for those keen to pursue 3rd foreign language (Spanish / Japanese / French / German),
you will have to travel to either MOELC (Bishan) or MOELC (Newton), depending on which foreign language u are taking.

Eg
Spanish, is offered only at MOELC (Newton), but not at Bishan branch

whether one qualify to take 3rd foreign language or not from Sec 1 onwards, on 21 Nov PSLE results collection day, it will be written inside (indicated) your PSLE results slip. If your Tscore is around 252 and above, usually can qualify


This year, 2019 GCE O level (born 2003), if one is observant enough, found on the notice board hung inside SST school premises, listing down names of various students taking individual O level subjects, one can see the names of SST Sec 4 students who have persevered hard.
They still take GCE O level (in 3rd foreign language : Spanish / Japanese / French / German), over and above their heavy 8 subjects combination, at O level. Even though some of their fellow classmates (school-mates) had already dropped out, given up 3rd language by end of Sec 1 or Sec 2, these group of hardworking students still persist on. Determination and Perseverance and Never Give Up

他们 ... 坚 持 到 底, 永 不 放 弃 :salute:

If take 3rd foreign language,
this will be your 9th subject enrolled, at GCE O-level major examination

Hi Phtthp, is there any statistics made known about SST merits for o level gaohua? Thank you 😊

Hi Berlykiasu,


Perhaps, can contact Chinese HOD (SST), obtain the statistics officially from the Head-of-department, if your child is an enrolled student in SST

This Thurs (21 nov), if your Wait-list is converted into CO at SST, when you collect your Psle slip results, it will indicate, and you cannot take part in S1 posting anymore. Only SST school know the statistics, how many WL have been converted successfully, but won’t disclose to public
