What is Victoria School (O level track) likely COP?

[2centsworthy]

He said it’s open to ALL - those not in IP track and also for those from other schools as well. And one parent asked… would those in Victoria get a better chance… then he turned his head around and looked all over the auditorium and asked "any reporters around?" Then he said don’t want to be quoted… and he told Mr Andrew Lim "will tell you later how we should do this"… then he said to his audience … let me put it this way… if both kids have exactly same academic standings… which one should have a better chance… He’s smart guy. Hey, he may be reading this now… cos he said parents will post on Kiasuparents forum. Hahaha… hello Mr Low. Did I say correctly? If not, would like to invite you to add on. Hahahaa

Thanks ManU123.

Don’t know why can’t get it load… must be some virus in my computer. Have been trying to get it neutralised after the full scan. Will try again later. I got to watch this. Such great leadership. So very seldom you see Principal so passionate and even the posting by Mr Siow. Wow…

I find it strange that students from other schools will be considered for VS IP in Sec 3. It will be difficult to compare among different students from VS and non-VS.

My advice to all parents is to weigh the pros and cons of IP for your children. You know your children best. There are many factors affecting a child performance. It is not a be all and end all option. DS3 knows of friends who drop out of IP due to poor performance and those who opt for other JCs to do IP after sec 2 instead of continuing in VS to do O level or aim for a place in VS IP (don’t ask me I don’t know the true story and not kaypo enough to check with his mum). Is his friend making the right choice? Time will tell. For DS3, he rather go through O level and try for VJC cos he doesn’t want to take the risk of not getting O level if he doesn’t do well in IP.

I'm not too sure. Mr Low was my principal while I was there so when he left, this video became viral on Facebook and that's how I found it.

Hi, you can see this video: http://www.facebook.com/VictoriaChallenge?ref=ts

Mr Siow has left the school, but he really connected well with the students when he was there. Somehow MOE HQ takes in all the good talent. I'm not sure if you are a parent choosing schools at the moment, but if you have chosen VS, your son will experience the impact of Mr Siow's work very soon during the sec 1 orientation camp.
