Hi yukilei,


RVH's JC is RVH itself. Year 5 and Year 6 lessons conducted within the same compound at RVH. I think they did pretty well for their A level.

I think SJI is the same for the Year and Year 6 too.

yukilei:

Asking on behalf of colleague. Some sec schools like RVH & SJI offers IP prog but they don't have afficiated JC, where do the IP students go during yr 5 & 6?

Thank you elkniwt. So it means these sec schools have added a section for \"JC\" in their school curriculum.

Hi newbie here. dd has a co from rgs. gep, in case you ask. Was wondering if anybody heard of the talent development program? What is this? :?

Hi,

When your DD reports to RGS in Dec, she will be given a file which will contain all the info on the various special programmes under Talent Devt.
The special programmes for year 1s include:
- Music Elective Prog
- Special Arts Prog
- Regional Studies Prog
- 3rd Lang
- Malay Special Prog
- Chinese Special Prog

My DD is only in year 1...if not wrong, from year 2 onwards, there're others like Odyssey of the Mind.

There are conditions to be fulfilled before your DD is allowed to take up the Prog. If you want more info, I suggest you post the questions in the RGS thread.

Oh, and congrats on the CO.

So disappointed to hear that the sch only have offered such a limited vacancies (less than 30) .

The DSA process for SNGS is really tedious.

SNGS DSA offer less than 30.

i)
out of 30 -
how many allocated to SNGS own affliated primary girls, how many to outsiders ?

ii)
how many seats from SCGS DSA - also less than 30 ?
how many allocated to SCGS own affliated primary school girls first ?

iii)
how many seats from MGS DSA ?
how many allocated to MGS own affliated primary school girls first ?

When I went to the MGS open day, was informed that the DSA-IP will take only up to 30 girls as the total IP size is only 60. Forgot to ask at SCGS - anybody knows?

For all the IP programmes at the full schools, I believe the affiliated primary school girls have to compete for the places the same as non-affiliated girls. They only get preference (ie lower COP) for the O-level track.

[/quote]At least MGS told parents upfron it was 30 vs 60 available IP places (reasonable since that is 50%). Seems like SnGS gave the impression that they would be filling up to 3 classes (half of the IP classes) through DSA but in the end they only offered less than 30 places

Hi, for those with CO from RGS, have you received the letter?

No. I called to ask them today and they said that it has not been sent out yet.

Thanks for that piece of info - I was wondering why dd hadn't received the letter yet.

ACS(I) is doing IB while ACJC is A Levels so ACS(I) Year 5 and 6 is in their own school.
