Is CHIJ STC good? Willing to appeal to the sch but band 9. Anyone has advice?

Banding is more impt than COP. Banding shows the average aggregate score of the students for O Level. COP is what the students get for PSLE. Given 2 schs of same COPs, mean and median, the one with better banding shows it can value add and produce better O Level results despite taking in students of same COP, mean and median as the other sch.

If you can find another sch of higher banding for your T-score range, you may want to consider that sch instead of a band 9 sch.

Additional note: mean and median of sch can only be found online and not available in S1 posting booklet. Check through MOE sch info search.

Hi selfan, depending on your aggregate, I will prefer to select school with a better banding rating than the COP. Regards.

Must also look at value-add on top of banding. Many schools with good banding but no value add. This means they have likely have good COP but students underperformed.[/quote]Banding refers to the average aggregate score for O Level for the sch (usually you will see Band 1 or Band 3 sch). Some people called that the \"value-add\" of the sch as well. It is not the PSLE aggregate range.

A question how to check if it is a value added school. WEnt to the page abt that but don’t understand. Can anyone explain?

My dd had chosen a school which is not banded when she can choose to go to one which is banded and now she is being posted to her choice. Is it still possible to appeal now? How high is the chance if we appeal now and is there any deadline for appealing? Thanks.

S1 posting booklet pg G4 - G10. See the academic value-add column. Compare COP of different sch and their banding. It will give u an idea.

Thanks. Have tried calling a number of schools and am surprised that instead of expecting a lower cop, theirs have increased! Not sure if it is a wise move to appeal. If we appeal to another school, what will happen to the current one and by tomorrow morning we will have to report to the respective school already.
