Choose Secondary school for 2010

[parentof3]

wat:

My daughter scored 238 and we decided the following schools as her six choices.

1)crescent girls' (just trying )
2)tanjong katong girls'
3)commonwealth sec
4)zhonghua sec
5)swiss cottage sec
6)temasak sec

Is these choices safe enough? will she be to get in to any of the choices ?
:?: :?: :?:

All the schools are good schools but all COP at 238 or higher except for TKG. For me i will put first two choices above 238, next 2 around 238 and last two below 238. To be safe. just my opinion

Hi,


Need some kind person to advise how to fill in the S1 option form.

There is no option for selecting NORMAL stream in the S1 form. Does that mean if the COP for a Secondary School is higher than my son’s aggregrate score, they will not consider my son even if he wants to do a NORMAL stream instead of Express?

It says you must put in all 6 choices and cannot leave any choices out. Is this correct?

Thanks in advance

My son got 251 for his psle… +1 for hmt. He wants to go to Catholic High but it’s very far from our home. I would prefer he go to Nan Hua which is near to our house. Can anyone provide information on the school culture etc of these two schools? Is it better for him to go to a boys’ school or a mixed school?

Hi Carebear,


My son scored 241. 1st choice: TKSS, hopefully he can get in so no more headache.

He is above average in English and only average in Chinese so to go to a SAP school that is more focus in Chinese i’m afraid he might end up not doing well in both languages.

Thanks for replying.

Hi

My son is in Sec 2 TKSS this year. Chinese is his weakest subject but amazingly with his teacher's encouragement, he passed this year, without any tuition! He enjoys the school and the teachers are very supportive.

From my observation, Nanhua's students are all very decent looking. Behaviour in public, so far I don't see any bad behaviour.

Cat High, no need much mention, it has proven with good O level results.

Actually, from my point of view, the most important is your son's preference, since both are good schools. If he likes the school so much, he would put in effort to study well.

Hi I am new to this forum as I have just registered myself.

:? Can someone share whether it is one point or two points bonus for admission from affiliated secondary school to affiliated JC?
I am finalising my choice of school for my daughter. One day left. TIA.
