      EJC has caught up rapidly !

      Flashback ...

      when Eunoia JC first started her pioneering batch at Mount Sinai temporary location a few years back, not many students were keen to join IP (Catholic High / SCGS / St Nick) back then


      Today, the Cut off point

      for EJC (Science) is now identical to VJC (Science) and
      NJC (Science), at 7 points

      and

      EJC (Arts) COP is now identical to
      VJC (Arts) and NJC (Arts) COP, at 8 points


      Based on L1R5 admission ,
      (EJC, VJC and NJC) are on par now, for both A-level (Science & Arts) stream

      Few reasons for Current Ejc cop due to
      New campus so attractive,
      Bulk of places aldry taken up by 3 IP sec so JAE places about 200+, thus cop will climb.

      But feedback theres disparity treatment towards JAE students compared to IPs inside.

      Oh I see. EJC COP shot up because bulk of the seats have been taken from 3 IP schools? You mean when EJC’s COP was 10 & 11 (for year 2018), the 3 IP schools have not joined EJC yet?

      Oh really? I can’t comment about the disparity among the students (if there is any) as DD1 is not yet an EJC student. Perhaps, for those O level students who are worried, please attend the Open House to get a better sensing yourselves, or join Nanyang JC :evil:[/quote]Few reasons that caused Ejc cop to shot up as I said. Not the only reason.
      Read carefully, Madam.
      New campus+big cohort of 3 IP sec

      Yr child from Scgs IP, soon to be Ejcian.
      Go find out adverse comments on Ejc JAE why they feel 2nd class treated inside Ejc.

      Attend OHouse wont reflect the gap feel by JAE.
      1 classic eg leadership roles mostly taken by IPs.

        That’s why I asked you, during the initial years when the COP was 11 & 10, have the 3 IP schools not joined EJC?

        Whenever I drive along CTE, I find the ITE AMK campus gorgeous! So when are you sending your children there?

        Did you pick up one adverse comment from another forum and you chose to parrot it as if it’s the absolute truth or do you hope that when you repeat a falsehood often enough, it will become the truth? Yet, the COP seems to be improving every year. You means these JAE students who choose to join EJC didn’t bother to find out “the truth”?

          I think COP shoots up because of new campus is logical. Who don’t like new and fresh stuff right? That the better students around AMK / TPY / Bishan / Serangoon etc decide to pick this new school (if they can’t qualify for RI) is not surprising.


          I’m, however, still wondering and surprised by one thing. Every IPJC has issues with integration and assimilating IP and JAE students - some loudly, some not so - but EJC got single out. Why?

            New vs old campus of cos new is preferred. Ironically, 3yrs ago when DD1 was in P6 and chose to go SCGS IP, her best friend also wanted to go along with DD1’s choice but was strongly advised not to by the mother because EJC was a “new”.

            If EJC has a very poor reputation, even if the campus is new, won’t parents think twice about sending their kids there?

            I guess there are also cliques inside other IPJCs. Maybe because EJC is new, up and coming, that’s why it’s being singled out.

              Kudos to these ip sec, if not Ejc cop would had been >11.
              Now, majority places still taken up by 3 ips, partial reason cop lowered is also due to this, we cant deny this fact.

              If ur child qualifys ITE, will u consider AMK pretty campus ITE? U ans yrself.
              Dont u know what school canteen food selling is also a factor student choose a school.
              New campus the pulling factor there too.

              Ejc 2nd class Jae treatment is well known by now.
              If ur deny it, then bo bian.
              U need to be in Ejc, then to experience the truth.
              Classic eg- different initial orientation for ip kids

                my good friend's DC is JAE in EJC. this problem is so pronounced that during PTC, the teacher had to bring up to my friend that her DC has been ostracized by IP students and that the problem is quite prevalent in the school. 🤷

                  I find it strange that instead of solving the problem and keeping it in check, the tchr feedback this to the parent? What did the tchr expect the parent to do? Tsfr sch?
                  Separately, isn't this JAE/IP divide \"prevalent\" in so many IPJC given that 2/3 are from IP? Is EJC JAE students only 10% of cohort or something since there are 3 feeder schools? And doesn't EJC mix the students up in the same class regardless of admission?

                    There was one ex-RGS girl who sued RGS because she was being ostracized by classmates right?

                    Anyway, don’t know real or not but my DH’s colleague whose JAE daughter just graduated from EJC, said that she enjoyed her days there and the teachers were nice and caring.

                    Those who are worried, I think the best is, take whatever posted in forums a pinch of salt, go and find out more from your friends. Year after year, the JAE COP improves, these JAE students can’t have gone in blindly without finding out whether the school is good or not.

Isn't it supposed to be partnership, teacher and parent work together with the child and help the child through whatever bad patch?

                      Some truth to the 2nd class jae treatment does not imply that all jae go through it. So many factors to consider also.

                      This cliquish behaviour is found in all schools, not just IP jcs. But most students just live with it, ignore it, doesn't bother them much. There is sometimes a handful who are adversely affected and teachers have to come in to help.

                      But for my friend's case, it was an outright admission by the teacher himself/herself that the problem is prevalent in the school and pronounced enough to be observed by the teacher.

                        Now that you’ve mentioned it, it is indeed strange.
                        Why was it not the parent who complained that their DC was moody/depressed etc because he/she was ostracized by IP students, but it was the teacher who had to bring up to the parent that their child was ostracized by IP students?

                        Could it be the student couldn’t cope with the transition after O to JC and was feeling rather stressed up / moody and the teacher just causally mentioned maybe due to being ostracized by classmates. Just like some kids addicted to playing HP till fail, doesn’t mean the whole school is like that.
