TTBCOOL:innocentchild:Hi parents, I know its late but just wanted to check kiasuparents for parents views on the IP JC that has been delayed. FYI, Im a secondary student in SNGS and ive been patronizing kiasuparents since P6. Touched to see how Singaporean parents are very concerned for their children. Hope you will not mind me in your forum as I just want to share my views as a student in one of the IP stream in the 3 schools.
Hi Innocent, so far, we have heard are parents' view. It would be good for you to share (from students' perspective) your view or general view of the affected students in SNGS. Do they intend to switch to 'O' level track?
Hi, so far although SNGS is the furthest from Mount Sinai, the Sec 1-3 students are not really planning on transferring to O Level Track. Rather, we are more upset about the location of the holding site as there was an uproar when the principal announced the changes. tbh, we have all accepted the fact that MOE cant do anything else to make up for their mistakes. But the principal spent assembly time talking and comforting us which in fact, didnt really change anything because at the end of the day, everyone knows its MOE's faults and not ours. I think that its the parents who want to switch their children to O level track or even transfer to another school (thats what my mother wanted to do) but as students, its not like we can do anything. We want SJI to move to the Sinai campus, we want to blame MOE, we want our future JC to be built. But we are only teenagers, and even the parents cant do anything to help us. Yes, the principal has suggested shuttle bus and everything, but this all could have happened if MOE wasnt so careless and shoved the JC aside. Okay, enough of my rant here. Hopefully the parents can now see our views in a clearer light (ofc, this is only speaking for SNGS students, I cant say the same for CHS & SCGS students).
