          aiyo, playing along with the words lah ..... parents taking leave also like taking exam liddat .... of course don't expect the kid to go alone for the test. after sending the kid there just go to school canteen and wait ..... the test is very fast one .... 20 minutes gao tim everthing....

            Hi Belle2011, I went to DD's Pri School's Office with the photocopied results and her report book and the clerk did it for me on the spot.

            Belle2011:
            For certified copies of results, do we just photocopy the results and ask our school to certify?
            Thank-you.

            Belle.

              But seriously some do really let their kid go alone by public transport right ?

              My wife keep telling me the kid should be big enough to do so already.

                Of course. P6 are old enough to take public transport. Most kids take public transport in secondary school, unless they're living so far away their parents can't bear to see them waste time on public transport.

                  [quote=\"phankao\"]Oh, I've been scanning in all the certs all this while. So when need just print out, no need organize to photocopy .


                  Photocopying or scanning is relatively simple; certifying can't be done at home.


                  So what u need do is scan the certified copies? Wu Liao. How to see that it's genuinely certified ith a scanned copy? Strange practice.

                  I rmbe last time my ds1, no need to certify for RI and NJC, but that SST need to certify. And for my ds2, DHS dun need certify but his own affiliated school need certified copies. looks like the more well known schools not so KS. In our experience for those few schools lah[/quote]I suppose they can check the authenticity of the certificates when the kids go for the interviews.

                    Chill ngbrdad! You almost make me feel guilty :skeptical:
                    11- 12 yrs , i am sure can handle public transport. Well DD started to take MRT indepependently since mid P5.

                    In fact i felt it safer when she took bus/MRT , compared to when she had to take a cab. But we had our own safety protocol , and of course had some anxious moments

                    Yeah But not to a unfamiliar route , and definitely not before an exam ...

                    o, o OT

                        I said that photocoping certificate slips or scanning certificates/result slips can be done at ease or at our convenient time, but not certifying the photocopies because not any Tom, Dick or Harry can do it.
                        Thank-you.
