    • RE: Appeal Secondary One Posting

      zac's mum\" post_id=\"2052968\" time=\"1640223269\" user_id=\"53606:[quote=\"zac's mum\" post_id=2052968 time=1640223269 user_id=53606]
      I don’t have any direct experience, but from what previous KSP members have shared, each school evaluates appeals separately & case by case basis. It is only after the seat has been confirmed accepted that the school will inform MOE for central updating of transfer.

      All students who appeal have definitely met the COP (otherwise their form will simply be thrown into the bin). Therefore to stand out from the rest of the applicants, should try to include other qualities or skills that your child has which the school might value. Eg is he outstanding in any CCA that the school has? Or does the child live very near to the school therefore convenience of travel is preferred - you can write about that too.[/quote]
      Thanks Zac's Mum! I just called MOE, you are right, we can appeal to more than 1

      As many as you want, as long as you meet the cut off point.[/quote]
      Thank you! I wasnt sure if the appeal process was centralised or internal one, worried one will overwrote the other

      Thanks for the information

      Do you have any tips for successful appeal? Yes met the COP, filled in the form too...wish to appeal to few more to increase chance

    • RE: Club Breadmakers

      Hi,


      Need some expert advice here

      Have been using my trusted Zojirushi BB-HAC10 bread maker for years and the bread pan has now peeled off. Replacement pan is $88. Machine is still working well, bake twice weekly

      Now torn between getting replacement pan or buy a new bread maker (non Zojirushi) , anyone using Mayer MMBM12 ($88 from Lazada) or Kenwood BM250 ($159 from Lazada)

      Any user here of the above bread machine (open to other brands/models too) who can give any input?

      I mostly bake milk loaves and banana bread for my kids for breakfast

      Thanks in advance

      Hi


      Any parents interested for carpooling to/from Katong/ Amber/ Marine Parade/ Joo Chiat area?

      We can work out something among us (take turn driving/ share grab) to cut down travelling time by public transport

      Join whatsapp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/FrmbA5YGtOICpbL0Wi9JUK

      No obligation, just exploring option here with another mummy who lives nearby. Both of our sons are in sec 1

      Thank you
