Phtthp,


Thanks so much for taking the effort n time to provide such a good overview of the gep at RGPS. I have heard good things about the program but greatly concern how she would take the small fish in big pond impact. She only has Chinese tuition n I heard many gep children still need attend learning lab, in addition to the school work. I think that's quite a lot for a 9 yr old girl.

Deadline drawing near....:(

I will certainly keep u posted of our decision. Thanks!

My friend's DD is in RGPS GEP, full of fun. She likes school so much. Did not feel too much stress.

Thanks for the quick reply! She transferred over to RGPS for gep or p1-3 RGPS already?

Anyone heard of any post gep survey (measuring how successful the program is against it’s goals) done by moe? I would be very surprise if moe nvr conducted any survey of the children since program kicked off in 1984 with so much investment n resources needed. And if they did survey, why can’t they share the results?

Hi all,


I must say I am very disappointed with the briefing n orientation for my dd. Firstly, the presentation mostly covers web site info. The only saving grace is we do have a good n interactive speaker. Our children were led to the auditorium for their briefing. Imagine a nine yr old child sitting through an hr talk. My dd thought it was boring, so did a friend's ds. I was hoping the orientation would convince her, unfortunately, it didn't.

Hi Cats,

So ur DD not going to participate in the programme? What's her reasoning may I know?
My DS just told me what he had learnt from the talk is that there is social studies and it is an examable subject. My DS is also worried on this subject.

Well, I ve not really sat down with her to discuss seriously. Every item I highlighted as a potential in a causal approach, she said her current school has. As for types of projects, frankly, I could not give her a clear explanation too! I was hoping this morning they would but wat a disappointment!

I believe CHS has open house on Monday, 14 nov. Check their school web site on meeting place n time.
