SJI & Anderson Sec - Which is a better choice?

[TT2]

Hi vidhyalog,


SJI does not have DSA for academics. I was looking out for it in their website. There’s only sports n military band and the application has closed.

I read with interest in SJI - does the community of non catholics referring to Christians, Buddists and all other religion ?

My ds is currently in SJI, and we are non-catholics. Initialy, I was apprehensive about sending him there, but after getting feedbacks from other KSP parents, I'm glad I did. Not only is ds a more confident person (he was very timid in pr sch), he is also a class comm member and doing very well in his CCA. As an independent sch, SJI offers many enrichment progs, such as IEP, oral & comm etc, and all these are carried out during curriculum time. As ds is also in the science talent program, he gets to participate in activities at the science centre, as part of his IEP, carried out every Wednesday, and also maths olympiad training. As a whole, I feel that the school is doing a great job in providing a holistic education for the boys.


Their open house will be held next week, Saturday, 16 July 2011, from
9am to 1pm.

Thanks for sharing junrahmat ! This is great to hear about, your happy with the overall well being of your ds, and you are proud of him and the school . Do you know whether there is another OH for SJI maybe end of the year ? Next sat timing clash with one other activity, and personally I think I like to bring mine to check on the sch.

I think their open house is only once a year. Otherwise you can try checking the school website, its pretty comprehensive

Their IP programme will start in 2013. Wondering if there is any changce that they will start next year …

seems SJI is informing some primary schools that they will be soft-launching the Josephian IP curriculum for students with PSLE T-scores of at least 250 and above in 2012 and are expecting a MOE announcement providing additional information on the Josephian IP soon …

Wow, that’s good news. Thanks, emoh. 250 is the magic number!
