Hi, seeking clarification for O level Program, I am not able to find anywhere on their website if there is any affliation to Eunoia JC. Does this mean they will not have the additional 2 bonus points under JAE to Eunoia?

Thanks.

To answer your question, clearly.

For SCGS (O-level program) -

there is NO affliation at all, to any Junior College in Singapore.

Based on your O level results released, u can apply to (IB, Polytechnic, JC or go overseas to study), as long as your O-level results qualify for their Admission entry Cut off point.

for Example

What was last year's batch ( sat for 2021 O level, born in year 2005 ) Cut off point (COP), to enter Eunoia JC admission ?


1) for Arts stream :
is 8 points (in your L1R5)

2) for Science stream :
it is 6 points (L1R5)

So,
if you are able to meet above COP (EJC), then can enter JC1 (EJC).


But,
at end of Sec 2 year-end November streaming exercise,
if your daughter inside the O-level track still have the interests (passion) to pursue or to seek Transfer into Sec 3 (IP) track,
of course,
the door is always swung open, (welcome) for her to consider.


So,
the affliation into Eunoia JC (EJC),
is for who ?

Affliation to EJC -
Is only for the SCGS \"IP\" girls.

Thank you so much for the clarification!

Dearest parents,

I am a secondary one ip girl, currently in scgs
May I know whether or not it is common for ip students to move to the o level stream at the end of secondary one?
And is it a better option to completely leave for another school or move to the olp stream?
I do enjoy scgs, but I am worried that I will be unable to find friends in the olp stream. On the other hand, I do not really want to go back to square one with a whole new environment to get used to.
Can you give me some advice please?
Thanks a lot! :rahrah:

Parent (pink melody),

You can

either write in directly by email

OR

call up the school, ask to speak to the Chinese HOD (SCGS) over the phone,

inquire ( clarify ) whether
SCGS conduct any Chinese proficiency entrance test,
for students who are interested to take up Sec 1 Higher Chinese ?

There are only two possible outcome.


A) if the answer is Yes,
confirm with them the exact date, time, venue of the Chinese test to be conducted, for a proficiency test check to take up HCL.


B) if the answer is No,
then,
clarify with the Chinese HOD :-

What are the end of Sec 1 year end (October) conditional \"criteria\" requirements,
to take up 2024 Sec 2 HCL,
starting in January 2024 ?


That is, minimum,
how many marks must an end of Sec 1 (SCGS) student score in their

- Standard Chinese (pu-hua),
- English
- Maths
- Science
- Humanities,

BEFORE
the school (SCGS) is willing to consider let students start Sec 2 Higher Chinese ?

In the meantime,
what can your daughter do, throughout her whole one year of 2023 Sec 1 so long, four school Term from
Term 1 to Term 4 ?

You can
enrol your daughter into a suitable tuition centre that offer Secondary school Higher Chinese tuition, to help her catch up in Sec 1 HCL, thus preparing her to take up Sec 2 HCL.

Hi!


My daughter took the PSLE under the old system. She did not take HCL and did not get A* for PSLE, only an A. But she still took HCL in SCGS. In SCGS, the criteria to take HCL lies with the overall T-score (or AL score). So long as the child qualifies and receives the MOE option to do HMT, she can do so, regardless of PSLE results for MT. At least, this was the case for my DD previously

[phtthp]

But your daughter is in the IP track.

By default, IP students take HCL. The reason why school want IP students to take HCL is,
so that
by the time they finished Year 4 (IP), before entering Eunoia Junior College (Year 5), IP students have already cleared Higher Chinese, no need to be burdened by Chinese anymore, in E JC (1st year).

Parent (pink melody) here is asking about HCL, in the O level track, not IP. In O level track, not all Sec 1 students take HCL.

Hi pink melody


Go for the SCGS open house tomorrow and ask My DD is so excited for the Open House!

I asked that previously at the Open House and in my DD's year, all O level and IP kids are given the HCL option if their AL/Tscore allows them to, i.e. usually within top 10%.

In the t score system, official hmt eligibility was either
1) top 10% (regardless of MT and HMT grades) or
2) top 30% with A in MT and min Merit in HMT or
3) top 30% with A* in MT and did not sit for HMT

So your daughter could have qualified based on Route 1.

In AL system,, official hmt eligibility is either ( i googled this)
1) AL 8 or better, or
2) AL 9-14 and AL 1-2 for MT, or
3) AL 9-14 and min Merit in HMT
