Crescent Girls' School
-
Hi, I’m keen to apply my girl to Crescent girl but the concern is long distance. Would like to check any Crescent’s girls residing at Sengkang? How’s the travelling option? TIA

Hi, it would depend on your location. If you are living in North-East, North or East, I suggest you choose PLMGS. If you are living South-west or West, or South, I suggest you choose CGS.
Hi. My gal is torn choosing between CGS and PLMGS. No issue meeting cop for both, no issue on distance, no issue on CCA (choir). Is CGS being IT savvy a make or break factor for the girls at this stage. Will the IT savviness be a key critical advantage past secondary life? Appreciate your thoughts on which school would be a better choice....
What makes you think only CGS is IT-savvy? PLMGS has their own IT curriculum under (PL21) to teach the girls to be IT- savvy. Girls are given an email student address and google account to create google sheets and Google slides etc and are IT-savvy too.

Ask your girl to list down the reasons why she likes both schools (Pros) and also list down the (Cons) and you also list down your pros and cons and compare both your girl and your revelation results and discuss from there to help your girl to make a good informed choice. -

Email address / google account / google sheets / google slides are the minimum basic across all schools. Crescent's IT prog is more than that. -

Definitely Crescent. CGS has a much bigger cohort, likely that it will have more options when it comes to sec 3 subject combi. Every school will say that they have a right not to offer a certain subject combi if there is not enough demand. So with a bigger cohort, chances of that happening should be lower.
Hi, I would like to ask about your opinion on these schools: SCGS (Ip, not O Level) and CGS. Both are close to home (though my child can cycle to CGS). With a T-score of 254, which do you think I should choose?
Thank you!
(CGS is Crescent Girls school)
Plus it is nearer home, no reason why she should travel and spend more on school fees for a school similar in standard.
What about ccas? I see that scgs has tennis and squash and synchronised swimming, whereas Crescent has track and field, softball and hockey. -

Why is she torn? Crescent clearly ranks above PL on all counts, except for the fact that PL is affiliated to AC. But if you look at AC, not that many of them are from PL also.

I'm not sure if SCGS IP and CGS are 'similar in standard' - there is no affiliation to SCGS IP and there are quite a few kids in my DD's year scoring 260s and low 270s. DSA (non academic) girls are offered O Level Programme, but they can apply for admission to IP if their PSLE score meets the COP for IP.
Definitely Crescent. CGS has a much bigger cohort, likely that it will have more options when it comes to sec 3 subject combi.

CGS is of course, also a strong school. And yes, one has to pay independent school fees at SCGS. If one is looking for IT / Programming / Comp Science emphasis, I would say, it is not an emphasis at SCGS, unlike the way it is in my other child's school, where Computing is a compulsory, examinable subject in lower Sec. -
