      thks all for the kind words.


      reason why ACSI is out is because he may not get into their IP programme if he doesn't meet the cut off point. besides, since we r staying in toa payoh , travelling time takes about 1 hr plus the fact that it is compulsory to take 2 ccas in ACSI, so we have chosen RV instead. though the travelling time is longer than ACSI by about 20mins or so, it is guaranteed ip.

      regards
      RV is in Jurong...near Jurong Point. Will your son be spending more time travelling everyday ? How about ACS Barker ? Sorry if my advice is not updated but I'm following this as my son will be in P5 next year.

        Hmmmmmmm , I stay at Woodlands , however , I'm really confuse weather to choose which school for him as he's insisting to choose Woodlands Ring Secondary where his friends are. The standards of that school is not really good , so could ya'll recommend me some of the school he can go ?


        If you think he deserve better school than you might want to try Yishun Town, Anderson, both are not too far from Woodlands. Better schools are for students with higher score and MOE had done a great job by providing every PSLE student a book on choosing your secondary school. Open house also help those who has more questions and unsure what the schools represent. I think most would make up their mind by now which is their 1st choice but anyway all I can say is generally we don't have bad school in Singapore.

        But YTSS is having a change of principal would the standards still be the same ?? I'm afraid the standards would drop 😞

            HI Janet


            yes, we did give it a lot of thought about the distance and we have decided to choose IP over distance. It is not an easy decision to make and we certainly hope we have made a right one.

            as for ACS, if you can , try to go for ACSI instead of ACS barker road cause the former is the better one. jmho.

            and as a concluding note, would like to inform that my son and i have just submitted the S1 form online! this will put an end to all the stress that i have gone thru in the past few days, agonizing over which school to put…

            once again, thks to all who have given me precious advice!
            regards

              Cheers!

                Finally, but still unsure…


                DS T-score 247.
                Stay in Bishan.

                1) CHS(COP 248)
                2) VS(COP 245)
                3) Anderson(COP 245)
                4) SJI(COP241)
                5) Anglican(COP 240)
                6) Maris Stella(COP 232)

                My wife prefer CHS cos nearby.
                My son dun mind CHS or VS.
                I prefer VS but far.

                My worries…if CHS COP go up this year(possible since IP soon), he will go VS. But this year VS COP may also go up, so may ended up in Anderson(i prefer boy sch).

                At the end, we got no chance to appeal cos CHS COP may be too high to appeal and VS cannot appeal cos not first choice.

                Keeping finger cross…

                        In the end only the richer parents who can afford better tuition in more expensive centres will be able to help their kids into GEP program to emerge top scorers in PSLE. :roll:
