        Why all these schools are suppose to be very good but they don't win the School Excellence Award.

        bc they are beyond that, so win sustained achievement award instead.

        No...school excellence award is the highest award.[/quote]bc they already have - sngs, chs:

              Level One Award
              DA Development Award
              AA Achievement Award[/quote]What you've quoted is the legend for the symbols used in the table. The awards actually achieved by the school is indicated in the blue table on the left. So for eg. for CHS, you'll see under Special Awards a medal-like symbol, which indicates CHS won a School Distinction Award. (Refer to the legend for what the symbols indicate). If the school had won a School Excellence Award, the symbol shown would be a trophy.

                Correct…Cedar Girls School and SJI has alreday won School excellence Award last year or the year before.


                The rest of the IPO schools have not won it yet. Some may have won School Distinction Award, one rank lower than SEA.

                  hi…can you pls adv me if i am correct to say that if my daughter (SCGS 's 2010 psle batch ) wants to go into IP program , and since scgs doesnt offer IP for this batch and if her score is at around 245 (not good enough for this year’s IP avail schools) , she shld try to opt for MGS (ASCI) or Cedar (VJC) for normal Sec 1 ( since IP is not yet avail for this year’s student there ) and join IP only in their third year when these schools IP program starts). is this option a viable route for students with lower score such as 245 and yet want to try to opt for IP, to first enter these schools as normal sec 1 and 2, seemingly be in a better position to be considered entry into IP at third year same school. Is there something i forget to consider here? As opting to leave SCGS for Cedar sounds like a very unusual thing to do, if not for this IP consideration, would most appreciate if u can advise me . thanks so much!

                    But the IP for these schools will start from Sec 1, and not apply to Sec 3.

                        I doubt if your dd will be able to get into MGS with agg of 245. The COP has been >250 in past years.

                        The only advantage MGS has over SCGS is you get a bonus point for entry into ACJC. Mind you, this is ACJC, not ACSI.

                        With an aggregate of 245, it would probably be better for your dd to stay in SCGS, work her way into the top 2 classes in Sec 2 so she can participate more fully in the Talent Programme there. If she proves herself she can apply for an IP school in Sec 3.
