Sec1 & Sec2 students already chosen the secondary schools will be affected if they don't include good secodnary schools[/quote]they can DSA out to those new IP schools if they qualify
\"better\" students always have their first pick of schools when come to S1 posting process, so no worry, they choose first before anyone elseverykiasu2010:

Then wouldn't the supposedly \"better\" students be deprived of IP opportunity?
no stopping them -
DadOfGirl:
Sec1 & Sec2 students already chosen the secondary schools will be affected if they don't include good secodnary schools[/quote]These students can apply to join IP school at end of Sec 2. In fact, some top students from non-IP schools are already doing that now.

Well, MOE can't please everyone right .... just like the NS monetary award, it's too bad for those who ROD this June and missed out on the first payment. -

I know currently SEC2 can DSA to JC , but with this annoucement, there will be strig attached as to they cannot pick students from other sec schools who are left out of this phase -

You are right....that means schools that used to have comparable quality in students intake but didn't get IP status this round is in an unfair disadvantage.

Wheareas for previous round, it is less unfair because schools like RI and HCI are clearly a big gap ahead the rest. For this round, there are simply too many schools of similar comparable standard, if you give IP to one but not the other...it is kind of a little unfair. -

Running IP requires a lot resources from the school, especially so if the new IP schools are going to run dual tracks and allow switching in between. I think besides past academic results, how strong a desire the Sec school itself wishes to run IP plays an important part. I don't think MOE will \"assign\" the IP schools on their own. The schools themselves have to put up a proposal to apply for it first. -

school transfer is norm, they (new IP school)....don't pick, they just say all are welcome to apply

\"better\" students always have their first pick of schools when come to S1 posting process, so no worry, they choose first before anyone else[/quote]a bit confusing here. \"better\" students will not be deprived of IP becos Sec1 posting is according to PSLE COP. But if these better students choose to go to non-IP schs, i don't think we can classify them as being \"deprived of IP opportunity\" if their schs are subsequently not chosen to go IP.

Don't think PSLE COP is a major point of consideration when determining if a sch should go IP.
