      566;23 class X 25 students per class= 575, 9 vacancy
      SHPS 41 (20,21 ) -9
      Rosyth 73 (25,24,24) -2
      CHS 46 (24,22) -4
      HPPS 40 (19,21) -10
      ACS 52 (26,26) +2 (ACS latest no. is 54, I just add 1 base on the feedback from yshuang. I assume another 2 also transferred from other schools in the list)
      NYPS 102 +2
      RGPS 69 (23,23,23), -6
      NHPS 52 (26,26) +2
      total -25

      Any inputs from Tao Nan?
      Even assume 3 classes of Tao Nan are all full, there are 25-9=16 students gave up GEP program.According to last year Tao Nan got 57 geppers, We can roughly know around 30(5%) selected gep students quit the program

          Not sure, might be out of Singapore.


          jtoh:
          The student left GEP or left HPPS for another GEP centre?
          yshuang:

          HPPS are much less:

          Class R1 : 20 -1=19 ( one left after few days);
          Class R2 : 21

              Technically speaking... they didn't quit if they didn't opt for the program.

              😉

                Huh ? Again ? I am so confused, poor kids, one test after another....1st day chinese & english test, 2nd day, chinese again, today, maths, dun know what next .... DS said totally unexpected & unprepared, dun know how he fares today 😓[/quote]

                I can understand why the p4 geppers have to sit for el,cl and math tests as they come from different schools. But p5 geppers still have to sit for el and cl diagnostic tests in the 1st week of school, really :siao: . Unless they expect some of the kids have improved their el and or cl within the 6 weeks of holiday. Perhaps this el or cl tests different things? I wonder whether other gep schools also have such tests.[/quote]

                Yes, DS was tested in Cl and Math so far. Like what comfy said - believe it's just a diagnostic test. Ds simply treat it as a class assignment. He was still in the honeymoon stage as RS had a series of ice-breakers and team building games planned out for the children last week. :grphug: Actual work will probably start this week.[/quote]

                My DD too had the test and ice-breaker for first week. after that, every day there is at least 1 maths worksheet..and those questions! its getting more and more ridiculous!
