To add: u don't need 180 to go to normal academic (NA)
The aggregate range of t scores for NA course is 152-199
For T scores of 152-159 , the students can choose between NA or NT

There is a very old post about a boy who took 4 foundation subjects as well.
He scored grade 1 for three foundation subjects and grade 2 for the foundation English.
He got a T score of 159 which qualify him for either NA or NT course.
He chose NT course in the end.

https://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=22670&p=1005061&hilit=PSLE+FOundation+papers+exchange#p1005061

U can use the case as a rough guide on what kind of t-score to expect.
180 is out of the range but it is still possible to go to NA course provided the student do well in all the foundation subjects. (Grade 1 is 85 marks and above and Grade 2 is 70-84 marks)
Whether NA or NT is a better option, you can think about that later should the child's score be between 152-159.

Btw, there is also subject based banding in secondary schools now.
A student in normal technical course who did well in a PSLE foundation subject (Grade 1) can take that particular subject at NA level from Sec 1.

Whatever it is, just encourage your child to do his/her best and see how things go.

If the subject all are foundation ,if the PSLE result score 180,can the student go to normal academic
If the PSLE t-score > 180, the student will definitely go to Normal Academic.

However, with 4 foundation subjects, the likelihood of scoring 180 is nil.

think that's simply because HCI building is of age and HC Int'l is new?

And simply how many buildings does HCI have? Numerous. How many does HC Int'l have, form what I see, only 1, and a school hall.

Well, you don't have to be sorry to tell me that. My daughter was asked by some of her classmates to smoke too, and she is in express. So obviously,
I'm aware of that.

But Singaporean DS need to go NS, most of my friend pick up smoking during NS.


To smoke or not to smoke, it really depends on the person themselves.

My daughter has friends in HCIS too. They told my daughter that they were allowed to use handphones in class and quite a lot of them picked up smoking…

HCIS is IB(six years), similiar to IP but IB is not as recgonised as IP in Singapore. IB is instead more recgonised overseas.

[quote=\"jtoh\"]Yes, SJI(International) stipulates minimum PSLE score of 220.


but my DS's friend score was 170+ and he is in Hwa Chong International sec 1 now. You should just call the schools to find out.

Thank you for your information...will check with HCI next year.... :lol:[/quote]Don't call HCI, call HCIS. HCI won't have a clue and they will redirect you to quite a number of different places.

170+ really can get in? Based on results or on admission test or \"connections\"?

Don't know based on what, but one of my ds1's schoolmates from p6(chs) last year got below 200 definitely and is in HC intl. This boy's parent's name is on the donor board in our school. Not sure if it is in HC too. 😉

I guess $$ talks in international schools?

ighbour Secondary Teachers that Normal Stream Teenagers are Rowdy /Terror.... Police always come to their school to gather information....

Anybody know whether Assumption Pathlight and Northlight are the students well behave?

Private school I calculated the fees will be about SGD100k :shock: for 4 years of Secondary....
And 70% of them are from Overseas lie Malaysia/Vietnam/Thailand....
Also wonders are these International Students well behave...
:
Actually in private schools, some students can be rowdy too. I was from a private christian school in pri/sec. It depends on how your child would handle being in that type of study environment. Some of the teachers can b v good. I had v good trs. Me & several of my classmates went to rather good JCs after our O-levels, like NYJC, AJC, HCJC(best during that time), RJC, VJC.

My nephew went to HC Intl sch for 1 yr (sec 1 in 2009). Somehow his mum thinks it is not good for his character development (they are christians, he scored around 180). At end of sec 1, she wanted to transfer him out to CTSS. The principal refused to meet her. In the end, based on connection, managed to see the principal but because the principal is posted to another SS, can't offer him in CTSS, he ended up in PHS (joins 5 yr normal acad) in YCK.

which principal refused to meet ? CTSS or HCInt'l ? the last principal of CTSS very bo-chap one, got complaint also don't deal with it. I got fed up and transferred my kid out. No loss if can't get into CTSS. Fyi, I was ex-teacher from CTSS
