Hi Luanee,


I don't think a student's house changes through the levels. My dd is in P3 this year and she is still in the same house even after reallocation from P2 to P3.

Oic thanks. Btw 70th percentile means the top 70% of the level i guess?

Luanee, 70 percentile means the top 30% of the cohort.

Computation of level position: cohort size x 30/100 = 70 percentile. You can ask yr dd’s form teacher.

Using recent statistics and making my own inferences. my findings can be summarised as follows:

Level Position Percentile PSLE T-Score
90 70 255
60 80 263
30 90 271

The above estimate does not differ much each yr as RGPS is one of the top schools, therefore its excellent results are maintained consistently each yr. Only the players change.

One more thing, there’s no need to say sorry, cause myself is ignorant about many things in life


Regards

If i interpret correctly, one must be within the top 60 in level position which is 80 percentile in RGPS that will most likely gets 263 and above in PSLE T-Score. Anyway i pick 263 bcos the COP for RGS is around there. At 70 percentile one can go to any IP school. This is a very useful piece of info. Thanks.

I asked for ranking in class and level, Class she told me but level she just said within xx (very broad isnt it?)

As for the CCA she said she wanted to drop her violin and and now none was sucessful so guess have to wait for January...

She told me there was a lot of vacancy for bowling and she was keen, I just told her NO, too far.....

Oh where is the bowling venue?

Her teacher told us my dd's exact level ranking leh... but i didnt ask about the class one.

And finally received email from school that there be no school tomorrow except for performers, prize winners and P6 girls, what a late notice.

Bowling avenue is at SAFRA Jurong.
Yeah tat a bit late to know if they are really excused from school today...

My DD will still be in the String CCA next year. I hope it will not be too hectic for her as she will be in P5 liao.

[aqeqiq]

Yes, thanks for the useful guideline, Innovate. Now If the FT does not want to tell me the exact ranking, I can ask whether she is within top 30/60/90. :lol:


Happy school hols to all kiddos. Enjoy your well deserved break!
:celebrate:

Oh and the teacher also told us my dd's ranking among the entire P2 level. So they do rank, just that they didnt publish out the results.

I asked for ranking in class and level, Class she told me but level she just said within xx (very broad isnt it?)

I didn't ask coz I really believed it was \"mixed abilities\" but it appears that they rank them and place them \"systematically\" in all 8 classes

So, it is just not published.

Not sure if you mummy's have read the principal's letter...not moving till 2014 and that year is PSLE for the current P2's?

Yah i think one of the P1 parents said that the principal told them they will most probably be moving to the old RJC (mt sinai) holding area - not confirmed yet. And since HPPS is moving there in 2012-2013, RPGS will be moving in 2014 i guess, in time for the 2016 deadline for single session.

And yah, our girls be taking PSLE that year. But i think it's alright lah, the environment there is quite nice and peaceful. Or at least it was so 18 years ago, lol..
