Just bought uniform today. White/light colour better. The white shorts are kind of thin and dark colour underwear does show through..

They do give option to buy socks in book shop not uniform shop, it's part of book checklist, but was told it's just plain white socks so don't really have to buy from them.

Total, SJI only has 2 track.
Not 3.
You are mistaken.

1)

In Singapore,
There are 2 different type of IP.
Both IB and A-level, are also known as \"IP\".

A)
The first type of IP programme, is called A-level, whereby students bypassed national O-level exam.
Eg.

students studying
IP-A-level curriculum inside
(RI / Hwa Chong / Dunman High / Temasek / Eunoia / National / Victoria / River Valley High ) Junior College. Yes, all these students in these named JCs, are studying IP programme. But, their IP programme, is for the A-level type.


B)
The second type of IP program, is called \" IB \", which is offered at both SJI and ACSI.

Example

- if your kid is PSLE (aged 12), your kid can join IB (SJI), or join IB (ACS Independent),
in Sec 1. Their admission Cut off point, is based on their overall PSLE AL marking scheme.


- But,
if your kid is older,
at Sec 4 (aged 16), your kid can also join IB (SJI), or join IB (ACS Independent), after sitting for their O level exam.
Their admission Cut off point, is based on their O-level L1R5 NETT score.

Example

This year 2023 ACS Independent Cut off point, was somewhere around 5 points, nett (L1R5) ?



2) the O-Level track, is the familiar one which many of us grew up in and graduated from, donkey years ago.

If you are a year 5 or year 6 student aged (17 or 18) studying here -


Which tuition centre(s) in Singapore have a lot of SJI students going there, for tuition in
IB year 5 & IB year 6
( Chemistry / Business Studies ) ?

Humanities subject is compulsory, in IB (Year 5 and 6)
