      Cedar would lead to VJC together with VS


      SCGS would team up with St Nicks and Cat High to form new govt JV in 2017 in holding site at Bishan ITE.
      Bishan property prices continue to soar !

      next time - besides RI presence, Bishan also house new Junior College for (SNGS, SCGS, Catholic High boys)

        if you accept a school via DSA no switch is allowed any time. ACS I princi gave this info. If you apply for switch schools will check if the student is via DSA or PSLE. if DSA no appeal is allowed. if PSLE then appeal might be considered case by case basis and availability.

        What if the student cannot cope after 1 or 2 years? \"Downgrade\" also cannot?? :?

              1. Interest in Mother Tongue.
              2. Do you want him to mingle with multi culture people or get taste of the tradition more.

              3. CCA's and other clubs the school has that might interest your child and how high the chance to get what he wants to.
              4. Your's child capacity and style of learning.
              5. Relaxed phase / Non relaxed phase of learning.
              6. IB is for about the Critical thinking & Management Skills and A-Level route dont have (unless the school has seperate pgms for these and your DS gets chance to participate)
              7. Are you after branded name.
              8. How much ure DS will have chance to participate in pgrms they have in the school , this is more important. school might have many things but if your DS didnt get chance then what is the point joing the school[/color]
              Referring to point 1 & 2:

              1. Must all HCI students take CL and/or HCL? Does the school offer other second languages?

              2. Is it due to the CL/HCL requirement or Chinese culture, there are very few non-Chinese in HCI?

                Could someone help list out the different programs that RI and HCI have and the difficulty of being selected for the programs? I thought both schools offer similar programs although the names are different. No?

                  in future, Bishan become a dating site for Junior college pupils to meet, get to know one another ...
                  Catholic High boys - besides SNGS, SCGS, also got chance to date RGS girls.

                  RI boys - besides RGS, can also date SNGS, SCGS girls.

                      Shalom:
                      BeContented:

                      [quote=\"Shalom\"]My DD told me that she want to go Cedar girls but she had a place in SCGS which she do not wish to drop it too. She said that she will accept SCGS but if PSLE result turn out to be good, she will want to move to Cedar. She said she attend one week SCGS and ask for transfer to Cedar. Can she do in this way? Will SCGS allow?


                      Think transfer is not allowed not just after PSLE.
                      Think will not be allowed at all for DSA students throughout the 4-6 years.

                      Who can I check with? Can I call MOE to check? Will they know? Or should I ask my DD pri sch teacher?

                      But Cedar and SCGS, which one is better?[/quote]school fees is different. πŸ˜‰
                      the school culture is very different. you'll have to see where your DD is comfortable in.
