Hi, may I check where I can buy references books/ practise materials for ACSI IP year 1 for the various subjects?


It seems not so many books in Polular Bookstore suit for IP students.

Thank you!:)

Looking at the most recent COP for ACSI, both IP and O levels are standing at AL7 for non affiliated students.
I hope to hear what are your views if my child who's not from ACS, gets AL7, which would he stand a higher chance of entry? Given that IP has a smaller intake (I think) but with no affiliation at all vs O levels with a bigger intake but only 20% space for children not from affiliated schools.

Will be great also if anyone knows the intake for both tracks each year or in 2023.

Have you called the school to find out the intake for both tracks in 2023? I doubt 80% of ACSI G3 (O levels) seats go to affiliated ACSJ and ACSP kids.

If my child scores AL7, I think he will stand higher chance to get into ACSI if he chooses O levels stream, assuming he has no preference for the streams and just wants to get into the school.

But if he only wants IP stream, then he should ONLY place ACSI IP as first choice.

Dear parents of Students sitting for IB this year,

Would be good to be connected here anonymously and share insights on how we can support our students.

Right now, I am particularly troubled by teacher who teaches language arts in the school and really does not belong there.
Even the boys know that she is wasting their time. and there is no real analysis being done.

I worry as even the IOs will be marked by this teacher. What options do we have at this stage but to ride the year out…

Any thoughts and PMs are welcome.

@Mama_ambitious If a school teacher is negligent or incompetent, perhaps the way to voice this concern, is to the school?

My impression is that the schools offering IB In Singapore are generally producing very strong scores, hence by and large the teaching should be quite okay? For the occasional less than stellar teacher, there is tuition (haha Singapore style).

IO marking is moderated by IBO I think.

Is it only your child, feel this way ?
How about the rest of the students, inside his IB class ? How do they feel, about this same Teacher ?

If is the general consensus of the whole class that this IB Teacher is really no good,

then,

Let the students inside his class raise this issue up, directly to the Form Teacher plus the (Academic VP + Principal), inside ACSI. Let the students themselves, at 18 years old already, raise this issue up, themselves, directly to the VP + Principal. Parents should not intervene anymore, when students have already reached this age (18 years old).

What happen next is,
if what the students collaboratively as a class, feel that this IB Teacher (ACSI) is really no good, then,
ACSI should, ought to find another Teacher, to substitute and to replace this no-good IB Teacher. Of course, ACSI (P + VP) will ask their students :- in what way, is this IB Teacher, no good ? Show evidence.

They can inform this Teacher to teach, up to the remaining balance days, in the current Term. When the next new Term come, ACSI ought to have replaced this IB Teacher, with another one. This no good Teacher, would have left the school, in the next new Term, if he or she, is really no good.

Hi, wonder if there were any success stories of boys transferring from ACS BR to ACSI (Sec) at end of sec 1? my child met the COP for ACSI (Sec) but was balloted out and posted to our next choice ACS BR. We tried to appeal but no reply from them and we wonder if it will be worth taking the effort to try the transfer at end sec 1. any advice is appreciated. thank you.
