      Oh wow! 🤩 I feel assured now. Thank you for sharing!
      FYI - most of the girls have high expectation of themselves and aim better than GPA2.0 😁

      Passing shouldn’t be a problem for majority of them.

        😂 I read about NYGH passing criteria and I freaked out. I didn’t research about the passing criteria in RGS before submitting the school application. So I was kind of worried rgs passing criteria is as stringent as NYGH. Quite relieved now. I mean i know all the girls will have higher expectations than just pass and obviously I won’t want my girl to just aim for 50%. I just want to have an assurance that my girl will have space to breathe; aim for reasonable score and not be bogged down by academics achievement throughout the years.

        May I know the passing rate is for overall or must pass every subject? I know some schools passing criteria is overall score; some schools are specifically for all subjects.

          RGS promotion criteria is very lenient, easy to be promoted to Year 5.


          NYGH promotion criteria : harder, more challenging, at end of

          ( Sec 2 + end of Sec 4)

            Computation of the Grade Point Average:

            Students will have their Grade Point Average (GPA) computed based on the average of the Grade Points of 5 Core Subjects and the highest-Grade Point of 1 Subject which may be an Elective or Subject which was not used in the computation of the Core Subjects – Core 5 Best 1.

            Years 1 & 2
            1. English Language
            2. Mother tongue or Higher Mother Tongue
            3. Mathematics
            4. Science
            5. Humanities (English Literature / Geography / History)

            I remember 3rd language can be used to replace the humanities GPA if the 3rd lang score is better than Lit/Geo/Hist.
            You can confirm with the school on this during the reporting day.

                Hello parents,


                My apologies for posting this bus service as we received feedback that many parents cannot find school bus service for their girls.

                We are a licence bus transport service provider ferrying Raffles Girls’ School girls since 2017, covering Choa Chu Kang, Bukit Batok, Bukit Timah, Jurong East, Jurong West, Taman Jurong, West Coast, and Clementi.

                If you are from other areas, and have a group pooling together, we try our best to help start a new route.

                Do contact me by whatsapp 93555056 (Jacob).

                  Hi!

                  My daughter is entering sec 1 next year and I ordered to pick up the books on the booklist fr the school bookshop next week.
                  However I can’t find any info on rgs website or casco website regarding rgs bookshop opening hours.
                  Would any parents know if it’s still opened in the afternoons and till what time?
                  Thanks in advance!

                    You can just call up the school and check with the school admin. They will be able to help you.
