\"]Hi Have just attended a Tea Session with Principal - DSA Sports for P6 in RGS on Mon evening.

Just Sharing Some of the Info with Parents in this Forum ....

For RGS : Sports Domain for DSA
Gymnastics : Artistic, Rhythmic
Badminton, Basketball, Golf, Netball,
Sailing, Swimming, Squash,
Shooting : Air-Rifle & Air Pistol
Table-Tennis, Tennis, Ten-Pin Bowling

Confirmed Gals will be informed by 31 Aug 2011. Gals in Same Sports Domain will be placed in same Class, spread over a few classes. No \"Sports\" Class.

All will have to go thru GAT test, and interviews. Sports Trials, if any will be informed.

Not Specific Exam-based, but test every 3 weeks, with projects inter-spersed in between. Extension of submission deadline will be given to Gals taking part in Major Sports competition, due to heavy training schedules.

Gals can take up a 2nd CCA, if they can manage. But No backing out of DSA CCA thru the Sec sch studies.

And One Very Interesting implimentation ....
ALL Year 1 will be using either MacBook or iPad for studies from 2012 ....
(Note : ALL the P6 Gals Present Cheered upon hearing this News! Ha Ha ....)


And, confirmed Offer is Valid as long as PSLE results qualify for express stream (No Need COP 260).

And Finally,
RGS Open House is on this Sat 21 May 2011
8am to 3pm.

Hope this Helps ....

Well RGS P Clarified that must be qualified for Express Stream ....
But Did not specifically state the Cut Off ....
Anyway, think they will exercise their discretion, since the Gal's P5, P6 Results R Submitted in the DSA application.

[Tania]

Well, is up to you… but i am not lying cos i heard that a few of the girls were very upset and cried cos they were only informed of the 246 cut off at a later date…

Unless the COP is specifically stated in the DSA letter of offer, qualifying for Express Stream is taken to mean 200 and above.

Tania, these girls that you mentioned were very upset, do you know them and their scores personally?

Maybe they were in the waiting list instead of confirmed offers? For all we know, schools may based on their CA/SA results to 'guestimate' if they are likely to score COP of >240. If not, then put them on WL first ... Does the outcome if one moves from WL to CO comes BEFORE or AFTER PSLE results?

In my opinion, confirmed offer means CONFIRMED right? Unless the offer comes with a clause stating the FINAL confirmation is dependent on PSLE results.
