[Bukit Timah] Primary Schools
-
Top secondary schools will want to keep their standard.
Even if there is affiliation, the COP will not be that much different bet afffiliated and non-affiliated. -
hypothetical case …
what if one fine day RGPS suddenly announce affliation, say with an affliated COP at 255 (ie. 5 points down from the current non-affliated 260, can’t be too far off if still want to maintain one of the Top schools) … what do you think will happen, hotter than MGS ? -

Are you asking if RGPS will be hotter than MGS Primary? If there's affiliation to the top girls school in Singapore, of course. It'll be as hot NYPS because currently NYPS has affiliation to NYGH at 250. But then the hypothetical affiliation COP is rather high at 255. If the hypothetical COP is set at 250 then without a doubt it'll be the hottest school in sg.hypothetical case ...

Yes, i agree ! it’ll become the hottest primary school in SG, for girls!

so maybe we can gather all (existing + future RGPS parents) to start writing in to appeal to MOE, consider implementing RGPS to become affliated, with COP >= 250 !
then whether COP is 250 or 255, let MOE or the school decide. With an affliated COP around 250 or 255, should still be able to maintain one of the leading Top schools position. At least, we have an affliated Secondary school to hang onto.
after all, policies and rules are man made. Can be changed! -
anyone registering under 2A2 for MGS?

the COP will depend on the overall T-score for that year and if this really come true i would say it will be less than 5 points below normal COP (ie. around 257 which is quite tough too) and it will be like NYPS affliated to NYGH but for girls only....
look at NYPS, it's a Mix/GEP/SAP/affliated to NYGH and no doubt the hottest pri sch in SG now.... -

As far as this arrangement is concerned, RGPS stands to gain, RGS stands to lose. So if I were RGS' Board, I would say a firm NO.so maybe we can gather all (existing + future RGPS parents) to start writing in to appeal to MOE, consider implementing RGPS to become affliated, with COP >= 250 !

Why bother with taking in lower affiliated students if the rest of Singapore's top girls is clambering to get in? Moreover the two schools have not been affiliated in so long there's no shared identity anymore. -

personally, i don't think this can be changed with a group of parents' signature or even the schools themselves..... it has to come from MOE..... someone high and senior enough to push for it.....so maybe we can gather all (existing + future RGPS parents) to start writing in to appeal to MOE, consider implementing RGPS to become affliated, with COP >= 250 !
