Wow.. Both of them are boys' schools. Need another 4 more. Good Luck!My eldest son is studying in Northland Primary. Any parents with kids there?
Hoping that he can go to Victoria or Raffles. -

My son in p4,we don't have any idea.he knows a bit,but i feel that haven't matured yet to aim a secondary school.May be next year.
We are referring to Sec 1 in 2013. Your son is only in P4, still have another 2 more years. He will discuss or hear from his friends, which school to go to by the time he goes to P5. Parents could also discuss with their kids & go to Sec schools open house. All the best! -
DS prefer boys school too . May try ACS I

Acs n sji, what major difference?
We leaning towards sji, but will face transportation problem commuting from west to bishan temp holding site. -
mummy so kiasu:
Most boys are not so concerned about sec schools at P4-5. There isn't much urgency. It's around end P5 or mid P6 that they start to think about it. I hope he can go to this and that sec school, but he is still very playful.smartmummy:

Bring the boys to open house....maybe can help.
DS dun care about where he goes, he leaves it to me to choose a good school for him. Went NUSH open house today.....well, he seems a little moved and sold, now he tells me he prefers NUSH to RV (before that, nonchalant attitude). But sorry lah, think not much chance .... but at least, some reaction from him.....

Actually son is ok to either SJI and ACS(I). To be 'confirmed' of a place at SJI, he needs to get 250. If can get 250, maybe can appeal for ACS(I). Friend's son had 255, no prob getting in ACS Independent.

I am looking at sji o level since it is a band 1 o level sch. Getting into ip wl be a bonus. But distance now is an issue. -
Cathalic High, I understand is a SAP school, does it means that if my son did not do well for his higher Chinese (merit) than he can’t get in?
Anyone know how many classess will it take for its IP in 2013? It joins with SCGS & St Nic for its IP, as all three school has their own Primary School, thus it mean the chnace for outsider will be less?
