[Jurong West] Primary Schools

[GSK]

Wow, u got quite a handful of info. What about the lowest mark and passing rate? My friend say she saw 99 marks (last yr result) for West grove, is it true? Tink the passing rate is more important.

i think it will also be interesting to know the mean t-score since this shows how the overall P6 population faired instead of just one or two top scorers..


anyone has these info to share?

Yes, is too early, but if u chose RC route, you can start preparing to join next year. Dun like me, last min hoping and hoping them to confirm me before the date, very dangerous.

sorry, ignored the above. For your case, yr DD is only 2, u can join the RC in 2012, and make sure u get the EM title by 30June2013 (ie the yr she turns 5), if u choosing the RC route.

Hi GSK
Thanks for the info but don't think I have the time to be that active in RC... Only can hope to be selected for PV

Hi,

I am new to KSP… Now I am a bit stress up about choosing the right school for my girl. Staying within 1k from West Grove but what are my chances? I am not a PV, no time and too late to do it right now.

Seems like XingNan is up and rising it is one of my consideration… I need some opinion… what other schools should i consider??

Since u only qualify for phase 2C, u will most probably need to ballot if u register ur dd in West Grove as for the past few years, balloting was done in 2C for those staying within 1km. So u have to decide whether u would like to take the risk to ballot.

Among other schools in Jurong West area, the other popular ones would be Rulang, Shuqun and Jurong West, but all will need to ballot too based on historical trends.

For those that do not need balloting under 2C last year, Xing Nan seems to be the most popular choice, followed by Pioneer and Lakeside, based on last year's registration data. Perhaps u can visit the schools to give urself a better insight.

I m patting myself on my back bcos I finished reading all 141 pages.


I am curious about why JWPS is so popular this year when they dont seem to do very well academically.
The academical ranking provided by this forum shows JWPS to be right at the bottom.

I am statying at st 93, so only WG, JWPS and JY is within 1km. Thinging of doing PV but yet to decide which school. Xingnan is up & coming but >1km away.
Wat do PV does? What kind of duties? to be performed during school hours?

wow! that's many pages! pat on your back indeed! :celebrate:

schools can be popular if they are in a very densely populated neighborhood. but they can also be popular if the school teachers or programmes are good. i think you have to visit the school to find out more. i don't know too much about JWPS so cannot comment.

PV varies from school to school. Different schools have different needs. I didn't do PV so maybe others can comment, I just wanted to congratulate you for reading everything!

Doesn't have to be within school hours cos my sil did PV for Rulang and she was asked to mark some stacks of papers and tabulate marks. This was done in her free time.
