Hi everyone! Seeking your kind comments and help for selection. DD scored AL11. Wanted to go to Yusof Ishak due to the new school campus. Any comments for YISS? Also, any good recommendations for schools in North East area? Thanks!

TBH, I don't think there will be many comments on YISS.

It was https://www.todayonline.com/singapore/move-punggol-expected-bump-falling-intake-yusof-ishak-sec-sch to bump up it's falling intake. Essentially, YISS is a totally NEW school with an OLD names most of the teachers and NONE of the students were brought over from Jurong to Punggol. The name was only retained for obvious reason. 2023 would only be its 3rd intake.

I think popular recommendations for schools in the NE would be NCHS, Xinmin, Zhonghua etc.

Hi All,


My daughter took her PSLE last year and got through SCGS IP via DSA. She did relatively well and gotten AL7 as well. I’ve heard from her that most of her classmates in her class were 7 and below and only a handful is AL8. I’ve gotten a friend who had chosen SCGS IP for his daughter who had AL8 last year and didnt managed to get in. My gal also had a primary sch class mate who had AL8 and couldnt get into SCGS IP, she chose SCGS O’Levels and gotten in the O’Level track instead. Hope this helps!

IMHO, with a PSLE score of 11, I would expand my options and look at schools that could be a better fit beyond the NE. While some schools will require a bit of travel, with the MRT, it shouldn’t be that difficult or take too long.

Does your daughter have HCL? If yes Nan Chiau might be possible to get in as first choice.

My gal scored AL11(M); staying Hougang around.

Does the below make sense?

1. Nan Chiau H.S. (2021, COP=12D; 2020, COP=11M)
Qn: What is the risk of balloting with AL11M?
2. Anderson S.S (2021, COP=10)
Qn: Make sense to risk it here; seems Andersoon COP is consistently at AL10?
3. Chung Cheng H.S. Main (2021, COP=11M)
4. Crescent Girls (2021, COP=11)
5. TKGS (2021, COP=13)
6. TKSS (2021, COP=14)

Thx!

Thanks. As we cannot go to SAP schools, our choices at AL8 is limited.
I could choose Cedar O-, but the school is far-far away from home and doesn't make sense.
Last 2 choices are Swiss cottage (stone throw distance from home) and Bukit Panjang.
Let us hope for the best.

Any statistics about balloting (among SC?)
Also, most schools have a process for appealing. How it works out (if we get balloted out and still trying through appeal)?

I don't think there is official statistics about balloting.

Your child’s PSLE score must meet the school’s COP of the posting year to appeal. The school will consider the student's academic/awards/CCA/... and subjected to limited vacancies.

All the best.

Thanks for your reply.


Unfortunately, she didn’t do HCL for PSLE. She’s offered to so HCL in Sec 1 as she scored AL 2 for CL. Can appeal to be put on wait-list? Thanks
