      I personally think Temasek Academy will extend to Sec 1 intake in time to come - not sure what is not ready yet. Esp with the addition of 7 new IP sec, Temasek Academy should really consider this move.


      Now that you mention it, I think Temasek Academy will be one of the 7 new IP schools.

      temasek academy is already an IP school.

        i cant remember very well exactly... even we maynot trust FULLY the 100% accuracy of VC mum replication....


        i just remember across the years from 2003 to 2009... ONLY Cedar girls achieved Band 1 every year,....

        other top schools MGS , etc or even Anderson especially boys school like VS and Cath High does goes ...down/fluctuate to band 2 or sometimes even 3 (OCCASIONALLY), it could be VS/ SJI / Cath high , i cant say for sure is Catholic High that reach Band 3 .... the girls schools drop down less... we need to do a back-check of all those exact data from all those years.
        My compilation is from MOE's website. You may wish to correct my compilation if there are any errors.

        Thanks.

          Should be confirmed:


          1.Victoria School
          2.Catholic
          3.SJI
          4.St Nics
          5.Cedar
          6.MGS
          7.SCGS

          Not fair if these are the confirmed 7 new IP schools. Why are these all single gender schools? Why no mixed school/s selected in this round of 7 new schools?

          VC's mum

          Haha,its just that these schools produce band one results in the o levels,not because of the single gender status :))))

            As I recall, Not since the previous Lady Principal who brought CHS' standard up before Lee Hak Boon was brought into the school in the past 6 years. She was the only female principal CHS has ever had, i think.

            .

              Bystander... i find it very UNFAIR to CATHOLIC HIGH, produced 21st President Scholar... STraits TIMES didnt MENTION a single word.... and DIDNT even say from the new President scholar is CATH HIGH !!!!!!! if RI or RGS report till big big... i didnt even know e new president scholar is from CHS until i google (yesterday) for other stuff and BY ACCIDENT got into the CHS alum site!

              Yes, they didn't mention in ST. But probably bc the fact that the president scholar came from CJC was so shocking to the reporter that he only reported that and forgot about which sec school that boy came from already. haha.

              It was reported on the CHS' website too.

              what so shocking lah... CJC results and COP had improved recently; mayb reporter from Raffles family too ... many people know the top students of CJC most from Catholic High or SJI... just like for VJC top students are mostly VS/Dunman/Cedar/TKGS and some SAP schools with no affiliated JC.....

                Is good news anyway!


                The mentioned schools have lots of students qualifying for IP but instead choosen those schools for many reasons.

                The standards of students are actually comparable to current IP schools.
                Care to share the many reasons for choosing these mentioned schools even though there are lots of students that are qualified for IP?

                  One reason would be loyalty and fondness for their own school. Students who've spent 6 years in the primary school are torn about leaving their school.

                    Another possible reason:
                    Students want O level cert.
                    Cause if IP then do badly/fail A level,
                    got no cert.
                    So O level cert then will have something to fall back on
