Comparing these 2 CHIJs is almost like trying to compare a pair of identical twins. They are very similar in academic performance. Both schools excel in English, Malay and Tamil languages, but have sub-par performance in Chinese. They both perform very well in math and science too.


I would give a slight edge to CHIJ Katong for its strong focus in character development and sports.

THANKS! CHIJ Katong PSLE results are on their web but not CHIJ TP so I dont know where to find out the PSLE results from. Any ideas?

Hihi, how does the school know you are an old gal of CHIJ Katong and not CHIJ Toa Payoh ? If based on report book, does it not all look the same ?

Actually on the cover of the report book the states CHIJ, Opera Estate. That is the school that I was from but the school has since merged with CHIJ Katong years ago.

As P1 is drawing near, wondering which one to decide CHIJ Katong or CHIJ Toa Payoh.


I heard that CHIJ Katong has better PSLE results & I’m an old girl so can get into Phase 2A2. For CHIJ Toa Payoh, advantage is affilitation to the secondary school. My mom lives within 1 km so can also get in. We now live about equal distance to both schools.

Anyone offer a vote?
