You might want to refer to this link. You'll have to scroll to Reference C, which is page 17 of 28. Hope it helps.May I suggest something?

Tks Tinkerbelle & Pen88n... I manage to obtain a copy of MOE's information booklet - 'Choosing Your Sec School - for Admission to Sec 1 in 2011' and it was stated that the aggregate range is based on the 2009 PSLE pupils posted to 2010 Sec 1, thus have a few queries :
1) since it's only a guide, then what is the 'actual' COP for this year? Where can I get this info?
2) SJI is going IP in 2013, would the COP be higher then?
3) Read the SJI's thread but was unable to find out much about the school... appreciate some feedback on SJI? Curriculum? Culture? Good choice? etc...
Apologies if I'm on the wrong thread... :oops: kindly guide me onto the right path... Tks a mil!!! -

I'll try to answer your questions based on my understanding and my personal opinion only. Others who may not agree please don't :heresmyfish: me.....
The Admission to Sec 1 in 2011 book is produced for the batch of Sec 1 in 2011 based on the COP of the past batch in 2010. Thus, it is not \"accurate\" as of that year - it is only a guide. Depending on that year's PSLE T-score overall performance, it will change. Similarly, a school may also get more \"popular\" and the COP will go up. You will not know the actual COP until after the S1 Posting because it is really depending on the applicant's and based on the applicants performance - you can call the school by then to find out (that's why there is the appeal process).
As to whether SJI's COP will go up, like what I said, depends on the cohort. This year the newly announced IP schools does seems to have higher COP - but again, it could also be due to cohort as well. Considering that SJI will have both IP and O Level track, I would guess that there will be separate COP (like ACSI) for these 2 tracks and of course, the IP track in 2013 will have higher COP (but your DS is in 2012 so not IP yet).
Last question I really can't answer as I have no experience with the school. Do you want to try posting your query in the SJI Sec Sch parents networking thread and they may be able to give you a better perspective?
