[quote=\"jtoh\"]Straits Times says likely schools include Cedar Girls and Victoria School. SJI also likely.

Quote from The Straits Times dated Monday, August 30 2010 Page A3:

\"The Strait Times understands that Cedar Girls' Secondary School and Victoria School are among the schools that the IP will be extended to. St Joseph's Institution had also earlier submitted a proposal to offer the IP.\"

My guess for the 7 more schools to offer IP on dual tracks:
1. http://www.catholichigh.moe.edu.sg/-http://www.cjc.edu.sg/web/
2. http://www.cedargirlssec.moe.edu.sg/-http://www.vjc.moe.edu.sg/website/
3. http://www.chijstnicholasgirls.moe.edu.sg/default.aspx-http://www.cjc.edu.sg/web/
4. http://www.mgs.sch.edu.sg/-http://www.acjc.edu.sg/
5. http://www.scgs.edu.sg/-Not sure
6. http://www.sji.edu.sg/-http://www.cjc.edu.sg/web/
7. http://vs.moe.edu.sg/-http://www.vjc.moe.edu.sg/website/

Thanks.

Good guesses. I know VJC has been courting several girls schools for IP for some time. So it'll be interesting to see who they finally hook up with.[/quote]

OK, yes - but GEP students still apply to ACS(I), altho' it might mostly be their own ACS boys?

But if from that affiliated pri school, i'd also prefer my child to go on to that sec school if the IP option is available.

Yes, my friend's son went from aCS to RI - who can resist?
I believe quite a few GEP students from ACS Primary move on to RI. Not sure why. Although many of them do stay on as I would expect them to, being true blue ACSians.

That was what I meant. If the school don't get their IP, they will slowly lose their last few top students. For example the case for ACSI, ia mnot sure how many of their GEP students they will retain if they do not get IP. The same goes to SNG, SCGS etc...

think many of those whose parents are aiming at NUS medicine are not risking by going to IB at ACSI.

BTW, some of the ACS GEP students got played out by ACSI who put them on WL...after their VP and some GE director (??) had infer that ACSI is very likely to give CO to all GEPers judging from what happened for 2009 cohort. Some of them left in a limbo coz they didn't bother with other DSA schs...the price of being TRUE BLUE ACSians!!

Really? Wow! I thought the situation was so long as the ACSP GEP students confirmed that they would put ACSI as their first choice they would be given a confirmed DSA. Was this the case for all the ACSP GEP students or only for the weaker ones?

[Nebbermind]

not very sure…no stats on that but heard that there was some unhappy (GEP) faces at last Sat session.

They actually tell their GEP students not to choose certain IP schools like RV because it has no experience with GEP students?!
