Wonder if all 8 pointers get the ESIS?

Agree with both zac's mum and slmkhoo.


genevaong - was your daughter elected by her former jc mates before the merger?

I dunno, but if i were the Principal of this newly merged jc, I'd want to start everything on a clean slate. I'd prefer to be be fair and let the incoming batch of o level grads stand for a fresh round of election.

Since the JC1 tests (to prove she is more studious this year) aren't happening before the election iirc, she can perhaps appeal to the Principal to be given a chance to stand for election again, alongside the 2019 JC1 candidates. Bear in mind it's a totally fresh 'electorate' this year. The freshmen should be given the right to vote for whomever they deem capable of serving them in the upcoming 2 years.

Most student leaders, prefects and councillors can juggle both public service and their studies. They are role models to other students.

Hello there, yes my child was elected by her former cohort into council.

You likely to get ESIS(Yearly Award) if you are from an IS secondary school with 8 points. (aka Top 10% of IS school)
**Do not mixed up with ESIS(Pre-U 1)..it is a different award.

slmkhoo:

zac's mum's suggestions are good - if she really wants it, she will have to prove that she can handle the appeal for herself.


On the other hand, she should be prepared that the JC will not agree. They may feel that it sets a bad precedent, or they may fear that her diligence now may not last through the year.

Reading your post again, I'm not very clear whether she is asking to be a councillor for another year? Or just to continue another few months till her cohort steps down? Her cohort of the council will be stepping down very soon. If it's the latter, the JC may be more amenable although she will have to rely on testimonials rather than test results as those will be too late. If it's the former, is she planning to stand for election again? They may not allow her to continue without being elected as it won't be fair to the juniors, and they may not allow her to stand for election again on policy. Just some thoughts.

I have spoken to her regarding this, as I want her to be mentally prepared should her appeal be rejected.
She feels that she loves what she does in council, and she is willing to stand for elections again alongside the new batch of JC1. She has also expressed that she is also willing to accept a condition whereby she will leave council if her mid-year results are not ideal enough (she is looking at 4 passes out of 5 subjects as she only had 2 H1 passes from last year).
What do you think are the odds if she were to make an appeal?
