One RGS parent shared with me her concerns on the teaching of maths and sciences in RGS. She felt that it seems like a touch-and-go kind of teaching and she is worried that her dd’s foundation in these subjects may be compromised.

Do you feel that way or is that the norm in IP schools now?

Hi All, I am new here, my dd just received the official confirmation letter for RGS DSA offer. It stated that she is also admitted into the Talent Development Programme (GEP), does anyone here also have similar offer for their dds who are also successfully admitted through DSA. (This dancing sheep is my dd's idea.) What is the TDP (GEP)?
