      Public transport wise, there is a bus that (961) goes to RGPS from WDL bus interchange but i think the journey is very far ... 41 bus stops. (Nanyang 45 bus stops, Nanhua i thk 30+ bus stops, the rest of the schools no direct bus from WDL). woodlands is so ulu.

      Wow. That is far. Can you send yourself? Otherwise, it's a very long commute daily. Hard on your child. Maybe you'll get lucky and find a GE school with school bus that serves the Woodlands area only.

                  NYPS - The overal GEP TOP performer each year comes for each level comes from this school. [quote=\"2centsworthy\"]


                  As far as I know, from information divulged by GEP teachers, this is definitely not true. The school which produces the top performer for each year/level varies from year to year. Perhaps many but certainly, not all hail from NYPS.

                  Whatever it is, these kids are all very bright and it is not really important whether one is at the top or bottom of the top 1%. Making it to the top 1% is already a very remarkable feat in itself.

                  :congrats: to all successful P3 GEP pupils and their parents !!! πŸ˜„

                    I am wondering is there a need for the younger sibling to follow to GEP school, especially if the 'old' school is nearer to home?


                    What are the advantages of being in the same GEP school? Thanks for sharing your thoughts πŸ˜„

                      Problem is the younger feels left out... my daughter already making noise..
                      Also, from earlier explanation given, seems like those who passed the first round but never make it to 2nd round (top 5% in Singapore), will still be 'guided' accordingly in those GEP schools... compare to those 'non-GEP' school...

                        Yup... agree.. they won't indicate in the report books on what are their ranking... in the GEP, all students are specials.. nobody better or worse...
