For SCGS,


SC (<2km) 26
SC (>2km) 7
PR 1

Balloting required for >2km

I think some of the parents manage to get info from the admin staff. Like the P2B, it's amazing how they manage to get a breakdown!! :imanangel: Impressive ground work. Maybe Dauntless can teach us how to get such precious info.

I thought u can just call the sch and ask? My fren who was at RGPS snapped a pix of the board and showed me the status. It clearly stated the applicants under each distance category, and the split betw SC and PR.

Yes you can, provided the school do take calls. :evil:

Sometime a certain school is very helpful but then sometime........

Sometime it is better to come down to the school to check in person. Faster and clearer. But then poor parent, need to travel up and down if they are looking at plan A and B.

Actually, SCGS did better in previous year than last year. I remembered their Chinese was 91% but dropped to 89% last year!

Are u under 2C? Please have back up plan. Balloting was conducted for within 1km last year. 1-2km applicants were notified last minute causing no time to react for some parents.

Yes, the Chinese HOD did tell me this year that the Chinese results slipped last year. I could not remember the other subjects...Maths might have deteriorated slightly last year too. So if last year results were considered good, the year before were actually better. The school expects the Chinese results to get better this year. Lets hope this will materialise cos my dd is in P6.

During those days where we had school ranking (just that I cannot remember was it for primary or secondary schools or both), SCGS was already in top 10.
