      If a subject is removed,
      A few reasons why school chooses to do so,
      Not enough students to form a class/
      Students enrolment is dwindling/
      Tkgs Econs result is not ideal.

      From TKGS 2021 results, can guess the reason why.
      How to find out,
      how was TKGS 2021 Econs results ?
      Reddit don't have

        91.7% eligible JC.
        43.8% with 5 or more
        distinctions only. Pre Covid was above 50%.

          The school had stellar Econs results. For 2020, 100% of the students obtained distinctions, with over 90% scoring A1. For 2021, all students scored distinctions, except for 1 who scored B3.

          My DD is an existing Sec3 Econs student in TKGS and there are 2 classes taking Econs this year which is the highest intake compared to previous years. So it is really hard to understand the reason for removing Econs as a subject.

            Econs result was sterling , 43% scored 5 distinctions above.
            Tkgs has to do something.

                fatbear,

                Is your kid studying Sec 3 next year (2023), inside TKGS ?

                If Yes,
                go, ask your TKGS

                (school Principal / Econs HOD / VP) -

                why removed Econs,
                since the students are doing well, in subject O-level Econs ?
                Is it an instruction,
                coming from the top (MOE) ?

                It is easy to obtain info readily, if your kid is already an internal student studying inside this school.


                Otherwise,
                if your kid not yet enrolled into TKGS,
                but
                want to do Econs in Sec 3,
                then got to consider enrol them in one of those 3 Secondary \"co-ed\" schools, throughout the entire SG, that offer Econs, instead. Namely :-

                - Presbyterian High

                - Temasek Secondary

                - another school, located in the west,
                called \"Westwood\" Secondary school :-

                        Based on the link given, the 3E6 class for example is a Triple science class, double maths, SS + either History or Lit as elective, MT and HMTL ? Just trying to understand the tables. My girl's dream school :love:
