CHIJ St Nicholas Girls'
-
Yes, even though affliated, it is good that St Nick primary school raise the COP for their girls - esp. for those who are keen to enter St Nick Secondary. Then it becomes fair that … those who want to go to St Nick Secondary know that … they should study hard for it, since nothing comes free.
Just like NYPS girls who want to enter into NYGH Secondary, they know that minimum score is 250 - this is not easy to score / achieve… let alone talk about scoring > 260. So NYPS girls study / strive hard towards achieving this goal, if they want to remain in NYGH.
because i have a friend who is teaching at CHIJ TPY.
she said COP in the past for CHIJ TPY was low … so, many girls take for granted that they can just walk easily across to next door, CHIJ TPY secondary. They think … never mind, no need to study hard … also can get in easily.
then end up come to IJ TPY Secondary, my friend said very hard to teach these girls. Some even face disciplinary issues like … go shopping centres caught stealing … some steal not because they are poor, but because peer group pressure says … for the thrill / fun of it… this type of wrong mentality. -
looks like moving forward / ahead, the direction is like … those good primary schools in SG with IP path to Secondary - must score at least 250 to 260, before the child can get in.
this is a tall order!
i think average psle student score normally hover around 22+, 23+, or 24+ score.
to score >250, >260, the kid must be both bright, hardworking, willing to study, with a spirit of positive learning and self-discipline. -
i supp the IP is to sieve out the cream of the top and the plc to spot scholars?

for IP path … st nick marriage with CHS is fine … after all, they have common background … both are catholic schools.
but this SCGS coming in … is strange !
SCGS is not catholic school, nothing in common with st nick.
i feel that SCGS … should find another Secondary Boys school to combine with / marry. -
