      EESIS is only applicable for independent schools. So students studying at NJC are not eligible for EESIS. Hence you can't \"save scholarship money\".

      LOL - obviously cannot lah... or can get a little bit rich, har? Of course not, lah. We'd be quite happy if otherwise, having moeny to keep.

      Lol! Some people don't know, think can pocket excess so better to let them know.[/quote]Heehee, I not there yet, so very ill-informed :lol: Kaypo around to learn in KS forum. So at least know next time cannot depend on kids to earn their uni fee, and I must retire later 😢

              May I know what is ESIP?


              ____________________________________________________________
              Edusave Scholarships for Integrated Programme Schools (ESIP)

              Pupils enrolled in / admitted into the IP in an IS at Secondary Three will be invited by the school to apply for the scholarship at the end of their Secondary Two studies. The tenure of the scholarship is 4 years, up to the final year of the IP. The scholar must make good progress each year in order to continue receiving the scholarship.

              Eligibility
              - Applicants must be Singapore citizens and are NOT recipients of the EESIS.

              Award Quantum
              The ESIP award quantum for pupils admitted into Secondary Three from 2010 onwards is $2,400, or the annual school fees charged by the IS less the annual amount of school and standard miscellaneous fees paid by pupils in government / government-aided schools, whichever is lower.

              ___________________________________________________________

              Hi snowz, I got the description above from somewhere (you can also google for ESIP in moe website, here is some info http://www.moe.gov.sg/initiatives/edusave/funds-grants-awards/). It is for students who enrol into IP school in year 3, or are already in independent school in year 1 & 2 but not recipient of EESIS.

              Unlike the EESIS which is automatically granted to PSLE students who enrol in independent schools and meet the cut-off point, students must apply for ESIP at the independent school sometime at the end of year 2, and the test is in Jan the following year. The test is administered by MOE and students are tested on Maths and English.

              Apparently many parents are aware of EESIS but not ESIP.

              Yes, understand that EESIS is automatically granted to PSLE students who enrol in independent achools and meet the COP. How about those enrol in non IP independent schools, does that mean the students will 'lose' 2 years of school fee? How about in Yr5 & Yr6?

                Do you know whether NJC is undergoing any reno, reconstruction,...etc for their campus. I heard they only build boarding,.. Will they be doing like RV to have a totally brand new campus in future?
                Yes, they are going through renovations now. I believe they will upgrade most of the campus as the campus is a bit old. 😄

                  NJC is undergoing renovations for indoor sports hall, junior high library (current one is going to be used for senior high) and a blackbox. The building of the bridge connecting the school and boarding school is complete. Other renovations that were done this year such as upgrading the general office are complete.

                      May I know what is a blackbox?[/quote]Black box theatre is usually a large square room with black walls and a flat floor. It is used for drama practices. In Sec 1, NJCians attend drama lessons and will perform (as a class) when they reach Sec 2. This will help to facilitate the drama program.

                        this poll is only applicable for boys, and there are very few boys going to NJC in recent years.


                        Its becoming like a girls’ school if not for the JC intakes.
