yes appeal immediately after PSLE result because the school has your DSA application info

if the school you appeal to accepts you before the S1 submission deadline, then may be you don't need to submit S1 at all ?? The school will be able to advise you on this.

this is assuming zero CO from all DSA efforts, but with very good psle result .... may be among the top .....

But if your T score is above the cop for the school, just apply thru S1 will do right ? Why need so much trouble.

Unless it's like the t score is below cop by one or 2 points. Previously given WL but no CO thru DSA.
Then appeal at that time makes sense.

The COP for the year won't be known at the time so some people may just want to play it safe by appealing rather than risking it through S1 Central Posting.[/quote]kiasu-ism at works! put it into practice !! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Hi All Dad and Mum


Can you share what program you have plan for your DS and DD during the 3 months long break after PSLE? Besides taking break going for holidays, after that what else?

Any enrichment class like games, sports, robotic, Math, English, Chinese, German, Japanese, oversea exchange program, etc..

Anyone can suggest or share what are you going to do with your DS/DD during the long break?

Anyone going for any IP school or IP program preparation classes?

DS was thinking to learn drum or maybe guitar. Any recomendation?

I think the first one refers to the Supplementary Intake Exercise


This is from the RI website.

Post-PSLE Central Posting Consultation
The PSLE results will be released on 24 November 2011 (Thursday). To help Primary 6 boys and their families better understand the Central Posting Exercise, we would be providing consultation services on the following days:

24 November 2011 Thursday (12 noon – 5pm)
25 November 2011 Friday (9am – 5pm)

Supplementary Intake Exercise for Admission to Year 1

The Supplementary Intake Exercise for Primary 6 students will be held from 24 November 2011 at 12 noon to 22 December 2011 at 2pm. This exercise is open to students who were unsuccessful in the Direct School Admissions Exercise or who are not posted to Raffles Institution under the Central Posting Exercise.

That mean if ds is rejected thru DSA, appeal need to be by Supplementary Intake Exercise which is immd after 24 Nov not 21 Dec right ? :?

Yes. Appeal immediately after you get your PSLE results.[/quote]

My son asked me this question that bothered me, hence would like to seek advice from experienced parents here.


His first choice is WL and second choice is a CO. If due to whatever reasons the WL does not materialised, will their be a chance that his 2nd choice school will reject him becos he has put them as 2nd choice?
If that is the case my son will be empty handed.

Hope do get some answers here before he comes home. TIA

No lah, he will be posted to the second school, the one that he has the CO.
Then is he really wants to go to the first school, must start appeals process.

verykiasu2010:

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

Then what happen if a 269 appeal after 259 who has taken up the last vacancy ? How they attract the best student ?

Don't need to worry. This will not happen. As long as he has a CO now, he will be given the CO if he is not accepted by the other WL school.
