actually just plan your holidays if you need to. Don't need to be in school physically to collect the results. The S1 posting exercise and registration is more important as it has to be done by the child and failing which you need to appoint a proxy with all relevant docs in advance..

We have already booked our tickets! We are leaving right after the release of the results assuming that it's released on the 27 Nov latest.

According to MOE, parents to submit their child’s S1 options 7 calendar days starting from the release of PSLE results (e.g. when PSLE results were released on 24 November 2016, options could be submitted from 24 to 30 November 2016).

If DSA is successful, we don't even have to worry abt above S1 right?

If you accept the DSA place, for S1 you still need to formally go online to acknowledge and select whether you want a third language option (what language offered will depend on your aggregate score). You do not need to select the schools.

Just received from RVHS via SMS this afternoon. "Dear Parents, your child’s DSA Confirm Offer Letter will be send out by end of this week. Note: Tea session with Principal has changed to 29 August 6:30pm"


I am certainly impressed with their efficiency and differentiation from the other schools offering DSA program in the way and how they do things.

Also got the SMS that the my child’s DSA application has been accepted by RVHS.

The Dean mentioned the following:
1. In the interest of the Oral and upcoming Prelims for Primary 6 pupils, they expedited the DSA process by conducting the 2nd interviews early this week. Shortlisted students who came for the 2nd interviews stand a high chance of being accepted so long they do well for the interviews.

2. This time round, around 80+ students were shortlisted to the 2nd round after meeting their requirements and as the DSA quota is well above the number of students that were shortlisted, almost all stand a good chance of being accepted so long they clear the 2nd interviews. There will also be no waiting list since the quota has not been exceeded for DSA students.
