[Bukit Timah] Primary Schools
-
one of my friend’s daughter chose the IP/GEP route, but she is not doing well.
With the O level route, they have the option to go either poly or jc.
It’s a bit too early to narrow down the jc route down their throat. -

Your friend's dd was from GEP and went to an IP school? And she's not doing well in IP or was not doing well in GEP also? She can always opt out of the IP school and go into an O level school. Some IP schools also have O level classes for their weaker students. Alternatively she can opt to go to a poly and not go to a JC.one of my friend's daughter chose the IP/GEP route, but she is not doing well.

[quote=\"LeeTaiTai\"]GEP only top 1% ? wow not easy
It's not about 'easy' or not. Ideally, the GEP programme is for the academically gifted or very high ability kids. Studies have shown that in any population, about 1% or so would be gifted. So the GEP programme should be for these naturally gifted (or in Singapore's case, very high ability students). Unfortunately, many kiasu parents want a share of the pie, believing that their kids can be trained to be gifted. And so the 'training centres' earn lots of money, the kids suffer at the expense of their parents' bragging rights, and the GEP programme suffers the wrath of parents whose kids didn't make it. -

Zoe Tay fails to enrol son in ‘branded’ school... so much for all the rumours here that she got her son in unfairly. NYPS is fair after all...

It is also shows that people should not parrot rumours without confirmation, causing so much debate and arguments, some acting like vindictive vigilante in the neighbourhood, giving all sorts of speculative lobang like getting in even earlier than phase 2B, all kinds of insinuation ......Zoe Tay fails to enrol son in ‘branded’ school... so much for all the rumours here that she got her son in unfairly.
