      Average class size is 33 for Y2 classes; between 6-8 from GEP... expect bigger classes around 35 each now.

      Monthly school fees must include additional $40 for miscellaneous fees.
      Thank you!

        Don’t worry too much... my own personal view is that the skills needed to do well in secondary school are quite different from those needed to ace PSLE. A lot will depend on the child’s attitude, internal motivation and drive. Choose a school that has a good fit with your child, and do involve her in the decision making.

          Most of the girls can cope without much problem as long as they have good time management and good self-discipline.

            My daughter got in RGS via sports DSA and her T score was few points lower than the COP. Nevertheless she has been scoring around or better than median score of her cohort. Don’t worry so much about the COP. Like what the other parents commented, what matters is the kids attitude towards learning and being self disciplined to keep up with their work. Their teachers are very helpful and willing to provide consultation to students.

              Do the girls usually stay up late to meet projects deadline? Living at Sengkang and will need to get up early to travel to RGS.

                  Depends on the girl. My daughter hardly ever stayed up beyond 11pm, and that was only in upper sec. But some were staying up in the wee hours even in lower sec. Time management and working quickly and efficiently is important. Your daughter can also try to maximise her time by reading/planning on the journey.

                    Actually, with the shift to Braddel last year, it doesnt take very long to travel from Sengkang to school.

                      Travelling time from SK to RGS is around 50mins. SK Station to Braddell station take about 40mins. Another 5-10mins walk from Braddell STN to RGS.

                        Actually, the students come from all over Singapore, so SK is no exception. We stay in CCK and some of my girl’s classmates stay in Jurong West too. So to us, distance is not much of a consideration if RGS is what your girl wants.
