Impressive results! It's marvelous that 91.2% got A/A* for English, 89.3% A/A* for Chinese and 82% of the girls got A/A* for Science!

Thanks for compiling, phtthp. By the way, were you at the Parents' Briefing last Saturday? Your information seems very updated!

Just got a call from the school. My dd was offered a place at P5.


Dd was doing fine in her current school, but she is really very keen to join SCGS. I have reservation, she is getting the "good" teachers as she is in the best class in current school.

Can any parents out there help answer my queries below:
1) How many P5 classes are there in 2012?
2) How many student per class?
3) Which class is the best class?
4) Are the materials same for all class or best class get more drilling?
5) How are the teachers there? dedicated? or do they expect parents to send kids for tuition.
5) How many student in 2011 PSLE got quality T-Score? i.e. 250 and above
6) What is the COP for affliated to the secondary division in 2013?

really appreciate your feedback, as I have only 1 day to get back to them.

1) How many P5 classes are there in 2012? 5
2) How many student per class? About 40 +/-
3) Which class is the best class? 5C and 5G, which class is your dd being offered? 5P?
4) Are the materials same for all class or best class get more drilling? Nope for Maths workbooks and some enrichment classes.
5) How are the teachers there? dedicated? or do they expect parents to send kids for tuition. Depends. There are super on and lazy teachers in all schools. Teachers generally do not expect parents to send kids for tuitions. It is the parents who get scared after seeing other parents sending their kids for tuition.
5) How many student in 2011 PSLE got quality T-Score? i.e. 250 and above. More than one quarter got 250 and above.6) What is the COP for affliated to the secondary division in 2013? COP is 220 in 2013 but your dd will go to sec 1 in 2014. COP for 2014 is not announced yet. In a recent briefing to P5 parents, parents were informed that with the introduction of IP, affiliated students going to sec 1 is subjected to availability of vacancies.

Hi alng, thanks for your reply.


Is all class taking Higher Chinese? If not, what are the class that are taking? Or do they work in such a way that during Chinese class, they go to different classes?

My dd takes Higher Chinese, and intend to continue to do so. I heard that Chinese standard is not very good there, is it true? My dd currently attends a SAP school.

I had enquired which class she will be assigned to, but they wouldn’t reveal.

I really don’t know if we should let her join SCGS primary. She wanted to go because elder sis got into S1, and COP is going to be higher in 2013 when they go IP.

any advise?
