      Any advice how many set of PE attire should we get? I notice there is also a polo tee, not sure if it is for PE as well?

      The full black school shoe, must it be with laces?

      Is there any parent group chat for S1 2023 parents?

        Below is NCH

        Official reply,
        concerning this year (2022) COP,
        when I contacted the school on

        WEDNESDAY (21 December, 2022)

        ===========================
        Yes,
        Nan Chiau High, no doubt, is a SAP school.


        Her 2022 COP is
        12,
        not 12(P) nor 12(M) nor 12(D)
        because

        for the O-level track -

        even if a P6 pupil has never taken PSLE (HCL) before,
        it doesn't matter,
        since

        all Sec 1 students in Nan Chiau High by default, will have to take HCL, once they start school next year.

        Thus,
        if your PSLE score overall is AL 12 points, never taken HCL (PSLE) before, it is all right.
        You can still proceed to fill up the Appeal form, if u are keen in this school. The Appeal form is found on this school's website, can google for it.

        =============================

        Note
        =====

        Anyone who don't believe that
        this SAP school (NCH) this year 2022 COP is just a simple 12

        feel free,
        to contact NCH at telephone number

        6489-7971

        to inquire for yourself

          NCHS is a SAP school.
          Hence, the ( ) at the end matters. COP is not just 12 unless the last student who enters doesn’t have HCL. That would be difficult to imagine though, as NCHS last year’s COP was 12(D).

          If you have not taken HCL in primary school, you will need to score 11 or better. If you have taken HCL, you will need to meet the minimum 12 points and HCL score.

            Floppy,

            Your answer, is what many people have always assumed

            just because
            NCH is a SAP school.

            Therefore,

            many of us are fixated inside our mind,
            expecting a
            (Pass / Merit / Distinction) to be tagged along with the COP, as it has always been in the past, historically.

            However,
            my written answer (above), is the official reply received,
            from NCH SCHOOL AUTHORITY.

            Anyone who don't believe that
            this year's 2022 Cut off point is just a simple 12,
            OR

            feel that how come so weird (strange),
            just a simple 12 for a SAP school,
            not been tagged to any Pass / Merit / Distinction ?

            Well,
            do feel free,
            to contact school NCH anytime,
            to
            re-confirm for yourself.
            My pleasure !

            And
            What is NCH school Telephone number ?

            6489-7971

                From 2022 COP,

                these are my finding(s) :-

                1)

                For six IP (SAP) schools, like

                ( Dunman High /
                St Nick /
                Nanyang Girls’ High /
                Catholic High /
                Hwa Chong /
                River Valley High ),

                Yes,
                their COP must include a tag
                ( Pass / Merit / Distinction ),
                because

                these are IP schools.


                2)

                But for the " O-level track " SAP schools, like

                a) Nan Chiau High, no tagging,
                just a simple 12

                Because

                All NCH students admitted in, compulsory to take Sec 1 HCL, even if have never done PSLE (HCL) before. So, u still need thus tagging for what purpose ?

                No need,
                because school NCH Chinese department already overide !


                b) Chung Cheng High, no tagging, just a simple 11

                The same reason, as NCH.
                Compulsory for all CCHM students, to start Sec 1 HCL. So, u still need this tagging, for what ?

                No need !



                c) St Nick, no tagging, just a simple 8

                Those who have received MOE HCL letter, can start Sec 1 HCL.

                Those who didn’t receive the MOE HCL letter, cannot do Sec 1 HCL,
                just do pu-hua.

                But,
                if St Nick students want to start Sec 2 (HCL),
                then,

                do well in your
                Sec 1 (pu-hua + core subjects).
                If can achieve this, then at end of Sec 1, Chinese HOD (St Nick) will give you the chance,
                let u start Sec 2 (Higher Chinese).

                  Actually Nan Hua High also did not have a HCL alphabet behind their COP for this year and last year.

                    Actually I think there is no ( ) for HCL score at the end of the COP is because the COP happens to be at the 12 grade, hence, all those with 12 points and took HCL with Pass and above have been accepted into the school. So the next batch is those grade 12 with no HCL.


                    Those with grade 12 will have priority before 11 (D).

                      Yes, the ( ) has nothing to do with IP or non-IP. It’s a SAP thing. Hence, it’s possible that SNGS IP may have a COP of 8 one day, if the last student admitted is 8 points without HCL. FWIW, NCHS last year’s COP is 12(D). Thus, a 12 point this year will be a slight drop in COP.

                      Assuming the COP is exactly at 12 points without HCL, the priority will go like this
                      11 before 12 (D) before 12 (M) before 12 (P) before 12. The explanation by MOE is as per below:

                      Students who obtained Distinction, Merit or Pass in HCL and have a PSLE score of 14 or better (i.e. PSLE score ≤ 14) will be eligible for posting advantage when applying to SAP schools.

                      If multiple students with the same PSLE score apply for the same SAP school, those with better HCL grades will be allocated a place ahead of other students. This applies before the tie-breakers.
