[quote=\"ngsc23\"]Aiyo. So complicated. Btw, unwritten rule for HCI and NYPS. There is some \"Relationship\" between these 2 schools. So boys from NYPS get into HCI at special admission aggregate

Not true. NYPS and NYGH are affiliated and the girls can enter NYGH at COP of 250. There is no such arrangement between NYPS an HCI.

:?
So to be fair to the boys in NYPS, HCI should have it primary school side by side call HCPS solely for boy only. and NYPS should be a girl school just like RGPS to RGSS....or NYGS should be a mix school call NYSS....etc..
Parents presently staying in Bukit Timah area should hope for babies girl for advantage. What a education system we have now, it time to flush it away. :imconstipated:[/quote]RGPS and RGSS are government schools and they have no affiliation to each other. Likewise RI is government school, independent, and without a primary school.

HCI has always been a secondary school, it was not founded as a full school.

NYGH was founded as a full school before it became a government aided school and then they split the primary section of the full school to become NYPS. May be last time they saw the little boys as cute so they cater to boys intake at primary level but the boys can't join the sisters at NYGH....

it is not impossible for NYGH to become mixed school - that was how Faithfield Methodist School became what it is today, from an all-girl school to a mixed school (co-ed)

Honestly, are there so many firstborn 6-year old children at this area? There are really too many who re exploiting the loophole by renting a place.

Good Luck to all Parents.

All the best to get into the schools you want without Balloting.

Demand coming from rich PRs + rental SG. Don't underestimate the power of PRs, I saw so many foreigners at RGPS P2C.

Not wise to buy an expensive property just to apply for P2C <1km. If cannot get in, how? Die lah :slapshead:
