Ha ha, I have a younger son who is also autistic, asperger. They call him twice exceptional. He is both autistic and gifted. Tough right? They need so much more work and attention and love. I have 5 altogether.
Nice chating with you, 2ppaamm. You are probably more experienced than me since you have an older DD. I have a younger son and he is mildly autistic so he is with the Canadian International School.2ppaamm:
Don't worry about uniforms and textbooks yet. You can still wear the Primary school uniforms and don't need textbooks until Jan 15. In the meantime, I think your chances are very good, so keep trying. Look at it this way, at least there's no bad news, so you are definitely in the running.
Our daughters will get there and become matured, too. One day. We'll wait, yeah? -

Mine is just plain autistic, on the mild side but with some difficulties in communication. Asperger kids are on the other edge, talented in specific area. -

Yep, my son needs social intervention as well. How is International School? Are they better than local schools with such kids? I have thought about sending him to international schools before. What is the teacher-student ratio like? He is in GEP, so there are about 20 in the class.2ppaamm:

If he is in the GEP class, I think you should keep him there..

Thanks 2ppaamm for all your posts and very inspiring sharing.
Regarding on your child's choice of school, guess, it's good to keep your options open. I have heard wonderful testimonies on SJI International, and that the schools is very nurturing and supportive. A friend, whose child is also ASD, is sending the child to SJI International. The parents are very impressed by the principal's positive attitude and vision, the students there and the school environment. Another acquintance whom I met recently, switched his child from a foreign international sch to SJI International, and have nothing but good things to say about SJI.
For info, I am in not related to anyone in SJI International nor am I from the school. Just hope to share what I've heard about the sch in case u need to check it out. Cheers. -

Heard alot of good things about SJII as well. I'll monitor for the next few months. I'm also thinking about homeschooling. Basically, he will become my research assistant. :lol: I'll put him in my office and check his work once in a while. He'll probably end up doing my research to some extent! My psychologist friend told me that's probably his best path. His mother is his best teacher. I have done that during the school hols before. Put him in my office while I teach (I have no maid), and I provided him lots of robots to work with. He became really good with those robots. I'm still thinking. :?Thanks 2ppaamm for all your posts and very inspiring sharing.

Appeal exercise normally goes into first week of school. It happens to all schools. Some school even process appeals in second week.
If you do it the right way, you should stand a good chance to be successful in the appeal. Check the article on http://singapore.math-chinese-tutor.com/secondary-school-appeals/.

dun worry b happy:
Hello, Nice to Meet you. I was actually posted to RV but my appeal for NYGH was successful so i transferred, and the moment i transferred out of the school, the first pupil from the waiting list was accepted, so it depends where your child is on the waiting list~ Good Luck though! oh and what school was your child originally posted to?:?: need some advice please....
anyone knows if appeal to RVHS is still on waiting list from now to 2nd week of January, does it mean that the chance is probably very slim and not much hope ?
understand some students already received
the transfer letters....seems like hope is fading....
anyone can share some info on last year appeal cases whether anyone successful on the waiting list ?
