Hi, Anyone has the updates for SMPS? Thx!

[quote]This really makes me question why there is a sudden rush for 'branded' schools, or is it a rush for affiliated schools? I think Singaporeans are getting worried that their children will not be able to cope with the pressures of the PSLE exams and might not excel. So, to play it safe, we try our best to increase their chances of getting into decent secondary schools from P1.


As parents, this either shows our lack of faith on our children OR in the education system. Personally, I think it is the latter.[/quote]Its both, branding and affiliation. As discussed by others in other threads here, its also the company. The jump in applications P2B and P2C so far for some of the branded schs has been quite amazing, esp those within 1 km. SCGS will only get hotter in the future with the IP status and its also the top 1 or 2 sec sch based on O levels results. ACSJ will likely follow SCGS trend bec of the new residential projects in the area. Remember not so long ago, it used to be a safe passage for those within 1km of these schs.

Keeping fingers crossed. It has happened for previous years, many parents only start to register on the last day after getting the statistics for the first 2 days…
