My dd is in MGS SBC program, she doesnt think that people are biased against non-Christians. Biasness or Discrimination is not one of Christian's teaching.

Hi Lynn2010, is your dd sec 2 this year in MGS? My dd just started her sec 1 there.

Hi, I have 2 dds in MGS, one Sec 1 this year and the other Sec 4 this year. Lena

Your dd is in sec 1 too! Great! Were you there on the camp fire nite? :rahrah: :rahrah:

[Lynn2010]

Yes I was :). Is your dd from SBC? Just curious.

[vblurmum]

Yes, but she is not from MGS Pri.

Hi, this may be a bit OT but I like to check with last year’s MGS P6 students if they had supplementary classes or remedials on Saturdays?

Does Anglo-Chinese(Independent) takes in only SBC girls from MGS for its IB programme starting from 2014?

It will be IP from 2013 next year though they will still have the O level track. I think the IP should be for the SBC girls. Full details will be out I think by middle of the year (before the DSA)

does anyone know how are prefects chosen in MGS Secondary? I heard that it was someone nominate you in class and then you go for interview and then u have level voting but then one of my friends said that its someone nominate you, class votes and then u have to get 3 teachers to support you to become a prefect. Could someone please tell me?

Thanks A bunch,

Nope. From what I know (we were been briefed few weeks back), IP and SBC are two separate and distinct programmes. IP will be strictly IP (6 year - MGS+ACSI). The school will still retain the SBC programme/classes for their O level track (like now).

1) Mainstream (O Level track)
2) SBC (O level track)
3) IP

But wouldn't that make SBC redundant because presumably the majority of students who qualify for SBC would prefer to be on the IP track, given that SBC is an O level track programme?

I thought it would be such that those in SBC would be the ones to be placed on the IP track?
