      Q1 Wana ask what is the promotion criteria from Sec 1 to Sec 2? Is it a B4 or C6 for higher chinese? Different people tell me different things…

      Q2 When it comes to selecting subject combi for Sec 3, what is the criteria i.e. based on L1R5 or total up ALL the subjects, including higher chinese to get the GPA to compare among the students? If my child is weak in higher chinese, he will be doubly disadvantaged rite?
      Q3 Heard that when students are in Sec 1, they will be covering some Sec 2 syllabus for Science. Any idea abt how many % of what they will be studying in Sec 1 is comprised of Sec 2 syllabus?

        They will be promoted to next level so long their gpa hit 2.5 min (conditional promotion) even if their HCI get B4 n below. RV will only retain students if their gpa is very low.

                  So what did your DD do today? Wore normal clothes?

                  It would be cool though. I've always wondered about why we must wear uniforms when going to school. It's aim is to enforce conformity at the cost of creativity. Yet most normal grade and high schools in the US doesn't require uniforms. Universities all over the world require no uniforms either. So does it mean that the older we get, the less there is to \"conform\" :skeptical: .

                    She starts school next Monday. I plan to let her wear primary school uniform, but she feels shy to look different on the 1st say. (in fact I have given away her primary school uniform 🫠, will need to wear her younger sister’s uniform)

                        Hi,


                        Has anyone heard of any students successfully transferred to River Valley High School in Secondary 2 from other secondary schools previously?

                        From the website it states:

                        Does RV accept transfer students from other schools?
                        Parents can call the school at the end of the academic year to check if there are any vacancies. If there are, parents can apply and the student will sit for the aptitude tests.

                        I just want to know the success rate and will there be a higher chance if transferring from another SAP secondary school to RVHS.

                        Thank you!
