Hi, My Son just completed his Sec 1 in a neighabouring Secondary school, I am considering to transfer him to Nan Chiau Secondary next year.

Anybody has any idea as how I should pusue with this path?
He actaully did OK in 2009 PSLE, T-Score 232, should have selected Nan Chiau at that time. He is doing OK in his Sec 1 studies, with A1 in Maths and B’s, C’s in other subject. He is also a School Badminton player and his school is doing well in this sports (within top 4 in North zone)will that be an advantage for this?

Most schools hold a waiting list. Go there and have him registered. You may also wish to approach the HOD PE or teacher I/c Badminton who may arrange for a trial.

Hi All,


My son score 230. Do you think he can apply for Nan Chiau (COP 231)?

Hope this year COP wont go up.

Compare Nan Chiau and Tanjong Katong Secondary School(TKSS) which is better?

My sister in law ask me to try for TKSS but their COP is 4 points higher & band 2. However, I like their system and teachers also very caring.

Can somebody enlighten me please.

anyway, i think the school will be in good hands as ytss has made significant improvements in recent years (just like nchs). the difference between nchs and ytss would be that ytss attained autonomous status while nchs is awarded SAP status due to its chinese roots. imho, the school's COP and academic results should go up proportionately in the coming years.

Any parents of NCHS would like to share about their childrens’ school life? I selected this school as 1st choice for my DS with a PSLE score of 241 mainly because of the school’s ever improving grades and designated as SAP from Jan 2012. I believe that my DS can benefit from the school’s strong Chinese culture and good character building programme that is in place.

Yes, this thread seems to be too quiet. Now, NCHS is offering http://www.nanchiauhigh.moe.edu.sg/cos/o.x?c=/wbn/pagetree&func=view&rid=1081275 sponsored by SHHK to high flying P6 students admitted in 2011. Encouraging news indeed.
