    • RE: Affiliated Schools and their COPs

      zac's mum\" post_id=\"1982467\" time=\"1593178719\" user_id=\"53606:[quote=\"zac's mum\" post_id=1982467 time=1593178719 user_id=53606]
      Dunno.

      MOE will release the indicative AL COPs in “first half of 2021”.

      So I assume it will show the both the affiliated & non-affiliated COPs. Not sure if it will be a straight, direct “translation” from T score to AL score, or will they take the chance to announce any changes to the entire affiliation bonus system.[/quote]
      This is helpful. Thank you.

      Anyone knows when the affiliation bonus under the AL system would be known? After 2021 PSLE?

      As a parent, I want to make sure that I give my children the choice, but also push them enough if they have potential but just lack effort. It is not easy to balance..
      Agree it is a delicate balance between encouraging perseverence and putting on pressure and risk killing the interest. Sometimes I wonder at what age or when do we consider them to be capable of making good judgment when deciding what they want.

    • RE: NAFA Arts Kindergarten

      Swamyas\" post_id=\"1946841\" time=\"1573955732\" user_id=\"176404:

      Hi, I'd like to get some feedback from parents who have considered or enrolled their children in the NAFA Arts Kindergarten in the new (main) Bencoolen Campus.
      A few questions that I had, over the general opinion and feedback some of you could share:
      1. Choice of Full day (vs Half) and the difference in the child's energy level, interest and holistic learning - especially for 3-4 year olds.
      2. Evaluating NAFA vs other full-montesorri or other kindergarten schools of similar standing
      3. If you've experienced another (older) NAFA campus before, how would you compare/rate the new one in main campus?

      Greatly appreciate it.
      Any parent of current/former student could share some review? E.g. on teachers, environment, attention to well-being, etc? Is it demanding to keep up with the curriculum? Thank you.

    • RE: Choosing and Evaluating Primary Schools

      Hello fellow parents,

      Need your advices again. Am asking for a friend this time who is trying to decide which address she will use for this years registration. They have a dd and are deciding btw SNGS or SCGS.

      At SNGS, they will be within 1km and can try at 2b and 2c. At SCGS, it will be one try at 2C but also within 1km.

      I told her SNGS at both phases are more competitive than SCGS though she has two tries. But she’s worried stay SNGS might be too pressurizing for her gal.

      Statistically, which school will give her a better chance?
      Is studying in sngs more stressful than in scgs? Or is it referring to the higher affiliation cop?

      Not moving house but moving furniture between rooms and disposal. Should engage home movers or are there other companies that provide such service?

      zac's mum\" post_id=\"1978715\" time=\"1590896200\" user_id=\"53606:[quote=\"zac's mum\" post_id=1978715 time=1590896200 user_id=53606]In case anyone is considering the “withdrawal method” this year, the online registration system allows you to withdraw online, don’t need to email the school.

      The only “difficult” thing is your spouse must subsequently login with their SingPass within the whatever time limit, in order to authorize the withdrawal.

      This is similar to the same process for submitting the registration, so you would both already be familiar with this spouse double login thingy.

      I suggest people go look at MOE’s FAQ website to familiarize themselves with this year’s online registration system.

      In particular, if your NRIC address had been changed after a certain cut off date (go see FAQ), the SingPass system will not have this latest address in its database. U will need to submit your registration via a special online form that will be made available. Don’t blur blur use the wrong method as the distance category could be totally different from what u want.

      And the FAQ provides the usual links to the pages that will be updated at the end of the day + at the end of the entire phase (which schools will be balloting). I see no indication at all that there will be any “live” data stream or even any (hourly) updates before the close of the day.

      So be prepared that you can’t know the latest number in order to make a last-minute decision.
      Thanks for sharing FAQ. very handy

      How do I know that my online registration on the Primary One Internet System (P1-IS) has been withdrawn successfully?
      Answer:
      To complete withdrawal online, both parents are required to login to Primary One Internet System (P1-IS) to submit the withdrawal.

      Thanks zac's mum and nitrodrops for clarifying. I had referred to the \"Registration Matters\" and missed the \"P1-IS\" section of the FAQ. Edited my earlier posts.
