Yes, agree !

this year, strong wind blowing the direction towards ACS Junior. Expect balloting within 1 km, ACS Barker. Not only many Methodists applying, but also GRL.

You bet, phtthp. Just my boy's class in BRMCK already 8 applying for ACPS, not forgetting the other 3 classes of K2 plus those from other kindergartens and those GRLs. My initial plan B of ACJS seem low chances this time round as we reside just outside one km.

Tough year!

Only can keep my fingers crossed and pray for God's favour.....

Chain:

I know I sound silly, but what's GEP? Gifted program?

GEP stands for \"Gifted Education Programme\".
around August each year, Primary 3 cohort school kids can take GEP tests.
There are Total 2 round of tests - only test 2 subjects: English & Maths.

round 1 - usually quite a substantial number of pupils can clear.
round 2 - is the killer paper. Only a handful from round 1 can clear.

if a child can clear both round of tests, MOE then offer these children, let them study 3 year GEP programme in Upper primary: start from P4 to P6. Parents however can have a choice: to accept or reject the GEP offer.
if you accept the offer - need to transfer your child to one of the GEP schools, if your child currently not studying in one of them.

at the moment, ACS Barker offer GEP programme, but not ACS Junior.
Some other selected primary schools also offer, like:-
Nanyang, Nan Hua, Tao Nan, Catholic High, Rosyth, Henry Park, St Hilda, Raffles Girls.

a number of BRMCK kindergarten kids are targeting ACS Barker, from both AM & PM sessions.

the other side: a number of Newton kindergarten kids are heading for ACS Junior, from both AM & PM sessions.

thus, (overflow from ACS Barker + orginal intended ones for Junior) will cause balloting in ACS Junior too !

tonight sleep early. Wake up fresh tomorrow got energy, go for battle !

We can just play register here and see how many KSP will send their DS to ASCP and ASCJ. Me first. I will register my DS to ASCP less than 1km. From here, you will know how many already taken just from KSP.
