      Hi..my daughter got AL 9, and she hopes to apply for Cedar. She is good in her presentation skills - both English and Chinese (her mom is Chinese but she is Singaporean). She is quite well-rounded. Do you think I should contact Cedar's Principal to highlight my daughter's talent in the hope that he considers her application favorably? Her second choice is Crescent. Thanks, Tony.
      Under the rules, you can only appeal if AL9 is the cut off point (i.e. your child must meet the COP), so you have to wait till the posting results are out, and see what the COP is this year. If you choose to appeal, it's still subject to school policies and vacancies.

        With AL 9, my daughter is target Cedar O Level. If she fails to secure a spot there and wishes to appeal, would she need to provide an essay to explain and will there be an interview? Thanks.

          Hello all,

          Are there Cedarian parents whose children got AL8 and got into IP in the last 3 years being Singapore PR? Is it a safe bet to try with the first choice and second choice as TJC? Please advise.

            Can try cedar as first choice follow by tjc as second, the third you have to play safe already..

              Yep, thinking to go with Cedar O level as 3rd choice. I am just wondering does putting TJC as 1st instead of Cedar IP to ensure IP? looking for parents who had this kind of situation.

                Also make sense if you really want ip buy I hope you are aware tjc will move to previous tampines jc for 4years before move back to tjc..

                I also place cedar o track as my 3rd choice after cedar ip as 2nd..

                  Safe bet or not,
                  It all depends on what is the cut off point Temasek JC (IP) is, for this year (2023).

                  Scenario 1
                  =========

                  In one year, the Cut off point for TJC was AL 8 points, not AL 9. So, if for example, suppose this year, say, COP for TJC is 8 points, also the same as Cedar Girls (IP), doesn't matter whether u put IP (Temasek JC or Cedar Girls) as your first choice, because

                  in the event demand exceeded the remaining supply of vacancies left behind at the Cut off point or at the exact Cut off boundary, then,

                  balloting will arise for those who have scored AL 8 points, going by citizenship.

                  Scenario 2
                  =========

                  However, if suppose this year (2023), say, the COP for Temasek JC is AL 9 points. Then, your daughter armed with 8 points, will be admitted in.

                      Hi all, asking as a parent who’s interested to try to get my child to Cedar in 2 years’ time. For those who DSA-ed through the track & field programme, do you have to have had achievements in track competitions (whether externally through clubs or inter-school levels)?

                        Hello, does anyone have DD who are part of the track and field CCA? I would like to understand what is the intake each year, and whether you really need to be a star athlete in order to qualify. DD has participated in NSG track and field for Primary, but did not win medals or such. Thank you!
