there are two appeal periods :
(1) if already gotten DSA confirmed offers, appeals is on PSLE result day or immediately after it – around Nov 24 ? many people recall last time I was against this appeal because it is against principle of a committed decision. but since all the schools are facilitating the transfer and appeal, I am no longer against it
(2) if there was no DSA offers, and Sec one school choice is via S1 Posting exercise, the appeal is immediately after the release of the posting result, which is Dec 21 this year
so the best holiday period is between PSLE result day and posting result day, assuming there are other kids having to take EOY exams… -

vk2010, you mean when the child has accepted Sch A CO on 28th Oct, then change mind upon receiving PSLE result. The child has to appeal to Sch B (I believe have to check with Sch B on appeal process) immediately after PSLE result? Do you know when will the result of appeal be informed?there are two appeal periods :

the result will be made known asap, according to the schools. reason being they want to free up the slots for the WL asap. some got the appeal result by a phone call less than 24 hours after submission, some have to wait a couple of days....some waited all the way till S1 posting date ....some after posting date ..... i suspect there is a ranking for those who are on appeals

the \"top\" ip schools said it this way : \"the process starts with us and trickle down, so that the slots can be given to others on the wait list asap, our schools will co-ordinate......\" -

every school hopes to attract the best students, that is why they are willing to co-ordinate the appeals and transfers even though MOE says …but in any case the independent schools have 100% discretion on admission
