      Edureach, thanks…I am a bit lost on the banding. Is there an offical source I can check the value-added banding of a particular Secondary school? I suppose it is MOE who bands the Secondary schools ?

        The banding and awards will be indicated in the S1 Choosing Your Secondary Sch booklet issued by MOE sometime after the PSLE exam. I think you can also get that from MOE website, in excel so that you can sort.

                  You can consider Gan Eng Seng School. Know some kids from this sch. Programme seems ok. In every sch, there will be some bad students, so it's important to check that your kids mix with the right company.

                    Some suggestions (based on 2010 score)

                    Gan Eng Seng (Lower COP = 223; mean = 228 ; median = 227 )
                    Queensway Sec (Lower COP = 212; mean = 218 ; median = 217)
                    Queenstown Sec (Lower COP = 201; mean = 209 ; median = 208)

                    you may want to consider schools in clementi, jurong, bukit batok

                        Gan Eng Seng will be having their public open house on 22 Oct. They did not have any for several years.

                        This year they are in band 4 (express) and their results have been improving for the past 3 years.

                        They are Uniform Group (UG) Niche School with over 40% of students in a UG. Other excellent CCA includes basketball, table tennis, canoeing, drama.

                        There are 4 express, 2 NA and 1 NT class.

                        Program ok. They are aiming for autonomous status.

                        Their cut-off is around 223.
