Thanks slmkhoo. Do you happen to know If promotion criteria still harder at NYGH compared to RGS?

Someone with current info should answer. My info is many years out of date. Anyway, I think most girls at both those schools should be strong in studies - promotion criteria is not something I've every thought about.

My DD got AL5. Does she have good chance for RGS?

Also what is the process of CCA selection? Say for shooting or Debate/Drama?

Hi, can I check do we need to do anything to indicate that we want to study HCL when in RGS? Or is it by default?

If I recall correctly, on reporting day, your child will be given a form to indicate whether to take Higher Chinese Language (HCL) or not. Most girls are encouraged to opt for HCL.

The advantage of taking HCL is that your child will no longer need to take Chinese in Y5 if she get a pass in O Level.
