I’m very relieved hubby decided on registering my daughter in my former school…at least I can rest assure that she has an affiliated sec school.


Looking at the record number of children registering for P1 this year, there will be very keen competition for secondary schools for this batch of kids.

Hi there,

I'm new to this forum and am reading with much interest as my boy's due for registration next year..

Does anyone know which sec sch accepts ALL the kids from their affiliated pri sch? For instance, I hear that ACS boys from Barker Rd or Junior all get a place in either ACS (I) or ACS (Barker Rd).

Most schools have a minimum cut-off but I can't seem to find the information anywhere.

THanks!

Hi SSmama,

There is NO sec school that accept all the kids from their affiliated primary school.

BUT for schools such as MGS ,SCGS, ST Nicholas, St Margaret, the affiliated pri school child needs to qualify for at least the EXPRESS stream in the secondary school.

As for ACS (I), a minimum cut off point (varies from year to year ) is still required for the affiliated pri school child to be admitted. Think ACS (Barker Road) is less stringent.

For boys' school, SJI is affiliated to De La Salle, ST STephens, St Anthony, SJI Junior but again a minimum cut off is needed.

Catholic High has an affiliated Catholic primary section too. So does St Andrew Secondary with St Andrew Junior. Maris stella High has a affiliated pri school section too.

Hope the info helps.

Sorry to dig up such a long ago post.

For PLMGS(S), they do take in ALL students from PLMGS(P) if they placed PLMGS(S) as their first choice school.

They have all 3 streams, so depending on results, they will definitely take them in and allocate them into the appropriate streams.

Currently, the affiliated COP is 190 for Express. However, new principal has taken over at PLMGS(S) and they are changing this policy. There will still be affliation but not as much as currently. This affects girls from this year P5 onwards.

I heard from ex-colleagues that COP in future will probably be around 20 bonus points. Which means that if non-PLMGS(S) girls get in at 240, the affliated COP will be 220.

the question to you is this : when you hb was at the sec school, was the primary school still part of the secondary school, as in the primary section of the school ? if no, then no way.

Hi mrswongtuition,

So you mean that ALL plmgs girls can get in? I remember that my friend's daughter could not, is it a change in policy or something?

Was she from PL Pri? The policy will only change with the batch that is taking PSLE next year.

If she is from PL Pri and put PL Sec as first choice on her option form, she will definitely get it (just a matter of which stream she will end up in).

Maybe she did not get in because she did not put PL as first choice or she did not meet the COP?
