            For schools who offer both express and NA, successful DSA students just need to score a min of AL22 to qualify for the express stream (assuming the CO was offered for express stream).
            I think WING_28 is correct here (I was unsure for a while too). In the old t-score days, I believe it was straight 200 (Express and not the Express/NA Option band) but it looks like MOE has changed this to now include AL21-AL22. RI is also saying AL22 is the required level.

            Example 1: If the school only offers Express course, your child's PSLE Score must qualify for the Express course option. This includes those in the Express/ Normal (Academic) option band.

              Is only school holiday, for the kids, not for staff. So, the staff are still working

                    If your DS is strong in Language, do consider IB.

                      I think most read it wrongly, AL21 and 22 is refer to the child having an option to chose! not School providing the option. So for school that offer only express / IP , they do not have N/A for the kid to choose, So Automatic, if u are DSA CO and get AL 21 or 22, means you do not have an option to choose, because the school does not have N/A stream , so u go straight into the school because AL21 /22 can is Express . If ur DSA CO school have N/A stream, then if you get AL 21/22 , u can choose for express or normal.

                      Hope it really Clarify it and no more misleading information... why am i so sure?? because i call MOE to check

                        Option Band AL 21/22 if for the kids, Meaning the boy can chose between Express or Normal, nothing to do with the school. If the school do not have N/A course, they boy no need to choose, and becasue he got a CO via DSA, he just go straight in as he did qualify for express.
