hi, any successful appeal into Ngee Ann Sec (Express)? Called up Ngee Ann but was told there is no vacancy today. was also told that the school has started and they wont be accepting student through appeal anymore!?


dd's classmate's appeal was successful and received call on 30 dec into Ngee Ann (NA).

im really sad now

Received call on 30th and finalized the transferral procedures into Ngee Ann on 31st morning. I went to general office this morning to check which class did my boy was allocated. I saw 21 names on the list. My boy told me there are 6 students wearing primary school uniform in his class but they are not the students through appeal. I guessed they are waiting to appeal out. Don't give up, still have chances as the appeal cases are still moving.

My boy is successful in appealing other school and we will appeal out from TKSS. I bought the uniforms, badge, tie, PE pants, exercise books, report book and socks. Anyone has interest, please pm me. Thanks.

How do I check the COP of a school? I obtained 239 for my PSLE and my 1st choice was St Andrews Sec Sch. Last year the COP for St Andrews was 234 so I thought I have a good chance to be posted there with my result of 239.

I was shocked and disappointed when I was posted to my 3rd choice school.
I want to find out what is the COP of St Andrews and why I not posted there.
Can the Uncles and Aunties here please help?

If I am not wrong, COP for St Andrew is 239 this year. You can call the school to confirm.

One of the orientation days needs to wear wet attire, anyone knows what is it? Thanks.

Initially tkss wasn't in our list. We went to tkgs for the principal talk. Din mk it for their open house. But the atmosphere in tkgs was gloomy maybe cos it wasnt an open house and not many students around. Only teachers. So i suggested to my dd to cross over to tkss n see the school and she loves the atmosphere. The students are very friendly and cheerful. There was a good vibe in the school. Thats when we made tkss our first choice and alas here we are in sec 1G.


Though travelling time a bit challenging, but i m positive that my dd will benefit studying there. I hope.....

Yes, I wish all of our children will like the school and benefit their stuyding at TKSS. :rahrah:

My Dd scored 237. Looks like with a few in class 1G and stay in sengkang.


We plan to take the NEL den to Circle line alighting at dakota station.

TKSS is a gd school. Myself graduated O level there when it was still known as TK Tech.

I am doubted if this is a good school but feel glad to hear your good comments about it. Thanks.

Any parents with child in class 1g?

My daughter will b in 1G.

My son was allocated to Group 7 on the registration day. Are they arrange the class by T-score?[/quote]

My son was also in group 7 which is class 1g. I dont think they arranged the class by t score. My son's ex classmate having lower t score than him is in another class which is in front of his class. My son t score is 239. How about your girl and son? Stitchy and leessang.[/quote]

Hello all,
My daughter is in the same Group 7 (1G?) as well. First time for us at TKSS during the registration. Look forward to share more information with all. We plan to join their CCA Day, and the TK1 night to know more about the school.

We live in Pasir Ris. Not sure which route shd b shortest time :-

(1) Pasir Ris MRT ==> Paya Lebar MRT ==> take bus to Tg Katong Rd (but hv to walk further)

(2) Pasir Ris MRT ==> Paya Lebar MRT ==> Dakota ==> Take bus to TKSS (side gate).

We spoke to a few students, they mentioned the time used to travel by bus fr Paya Lebar MRT to TG Katong Rd, and walk to TKSS, is almost the same with Paya Lebar MRT transfer to Dakota and take bus to TKSS.

Maybe should also try out another route :-
(3) Take bus fr Pasir Ris to Serangoon MRT ==> to Dakota ==> bus to TKSS. Will try and see if the time will b shorter.[/quote]


I lived at Seng Kang. We tried to alight at both Paya Lebar and Dakota stations and I will choose Dakota. Paya Lebar got more buses to Tanjong Katong Road (about 4 stops) but you need to walk further to Dunman Road and enter at the side gate. At Dakota, there are 2 buses going to Dunman Road (2 stops), it stops at the opposite side, so we need to cross an overhead bridge and enter at side gate at Dunman Road. For return trip, the bus stop is just next to the Dunman Road side gate.

My son scored 237
