Actually TKGS's rank is band 1 for 2007 and for 2008, and dropped back to a highBand2 for 2009. Considering the cutoff for PSLE entry is quite low , i think the school has done well in adding value to the students by producing a high L1R5 score. Not forgetting the school also loses some of the best students when these students IP out to TJC or VJC at Sec 2. So I think in terms of value add, it's not a mean feat.

As to why the sch has lost some of its popularity, well there are such a wide array of choices now - the IP, SAP schools, NUS High, SOTA etc. So it's not a wonder the educational landscape has changed significantly from the past.

But are these 980-1000 all uni bound? or even 50% of them?

I've nothing against girls lah. Just :?

Already there are more girls than boys in NJC, DHS. Ratio is like 2:1.
Does this happen to RVHS too?
Seems like the new JC will also have this kind of ratio.
Someone is this thread also posted he heard for VJC ip Sec 3, 1/3 fr VS and 2/3 fr girls sch like CGS?

secondary school landscape is certainly unrecognisable since the 90s with IP/IB/SOTA......but SAP schools have been around since the 80s though...

hello, all the boys are in HCI, RI, SJI, ACSI, CHS ......of course girls go to NJC / RV / DHS if they can't get into SCGS/St Nik/NYGH/RGS/MSG ....

Girls outperform boys in PSLE and O-level. Apart from ACSI and NUS High, girls outnumbered boys in the top ten jcs.

Erm, I’m talking about JC section when RI will merge with RGS, HCI will merge with NYGS. If their intake in Sec section is about the same, then the ratio in JC section will be abt same.


However, new JC will get 2 parts from girls sch and 1 part from CHS?
