PSLE 2010 Results Report Here

[Kiasuparent1123]

Hi My daughter has gotten a 216 for her PSLE 2010. We would like to try and get into PLMGSS (peya lebar) But for the past 3 yrs the school has been putting the non affliation as NONE POSTED. Is there anyway I can get my daughter in this school? She really wants to get into this school! She always has been. She takes ballet lessons outside. Is there anyway she can use this and get in? Please help. She really has been dying to get into this school! We are in desperate help!

[quote=\"PGID\"]As per the handbook, the posting is base on the merit.

If child A agg is 219 and child B is 215
Child A
East Spring as 3rd choice

Child B
East Spring as 1st choice

Q : Will Child A get to go in 1st rather than Child B ?

Yes.

So I would safely say that as long as we choose the schools in the 6 choices, MOE will line up with the rest in ascending even if Child A could have place the East Spring as 6th choice, he will hv a better chance than Child B ?[/quote]Yes. But even then, make sure you choose your 6 choices carefully, ie don't put some school that is way off in terms of COP. No point wasting a selection, right?

THanks, for your advise. but appeal must base on something right? my son nothing to offer to them leh? hee

Haha, that is very practical of you. :love: If your son has nothing to offer to them for appeal, then make sure you are happy with second choice, that's what I would advise. Good luck. :celebrate:

Sorry 25hourmaid, I have a question about the appeal, what is the procedure to conduct it? Like say, we must put that school on 1st choice, and we need to inform the school in advance before the posting day...? I can't find any detailed information for it... And the understanding to it which we are talking about here is actually quite different from the statement on the booklet, which is more on the cause of disability so have to appeal.

Hi Kiasuparent1123

I have attended the recent open house at PLMGSS and as far as I know, they do accept a small number of non-affiliation girls based on some selection criteria. I'm not sure whether ballet is one of PLMGSS's niche area. You might want to call up the school tomorrow for more details. Good luck to your daughter and hopefully she can get into her dream school.

[Kiasuparent1123]

Thanks. But is it possible as saying that she has a touch of dance skills. How about TKGS. Would they consider my daughter’s appeal? She got 216.

1st and 2nd seem logical to me and in my opinion, your chance of getting into NH is pretty high as your son's T-score is quite way above NH's.

But 3rd and 4th seem a bit illogical, unless of course, you very much prefer SJI over CH. I would switch the two if it is my case.

Your 4th and 5th are relatively safe but I very much doubt you would have a chance to use them at all.

That's said, I personally think you have made very wise and realistic choices based on your son's score. :celebrate:

Hi

I was looking thru PLMGSS’s website and their dance team has clinched a Gold with Honours award in 2009. So your dd’s ballet achievements can be an added advantage.
As for TKGS, it’s a risk to put it as a choice as last yr COP was 233.
Anyhow, I think the best is to call up these 2 schools to enquire more.

[quote=\"candycan\"]i seriously need help...my parents like me cannot decide...


i got 230 and actually decided to put the following choices:

1. Commonwealth (COP at 236)
2. Swiss Cottage (COP 234)
3. Clementi Town (COP 230)
4. Fuhua (COP 229)
5. Kranji (COP 229)
6. Either Bukit Batok or Gan Eng Seng (COP 221 and 222 respectively)

went to commonwealth today for the open house and have also taken the appeal form...to appeal the teacher told me that it's best that i put it as first choice....

my parents want me to give up Commonwealth and put Swiss as first choice followed by the rest of the schools as stated above...last choice being Bukit batok or Gan Eng Seng.

or should i also give up Swiss and put CHIJ St Theresa's Convent as first choice (COP 232) followed by Clementi Town and the rest as above. However, checking against the 2010 School Achievement, CHIJ St Theresa's Convent is Band 7....worst among all the schools selected.

I'm loosing sleep thinking of the above.

Any kind souls willing to assist? Thank you.

Just my thought.

High chance you will not get into Commonwealth. Swiss Cottage may also has a problem. Hence if you put these 2 as choice 1 and choice 2, make sure choice 3 is the school you really want to go in, incase you fail to get into 1 and 2.

For CHIJ St Theresa's Convent, you may want to check how is their performance since 2004 (School Achievement starts in 2004). To get the info, go to MOE website, then select Press release, and start looking from 2004,. normally is in Sep/Oct). If they have been improving since 2004, then I won't mind choosing it. But if they have been decreasing since 2004, then you may want to consider. HOWEVER, if you are hardworking, you should not be bothered by the ranking.

Hope you can sleep now

Thanks for your guidance. I've just checked. CHIG St Theresa's Convent banding has not been good over the years i.e. B9 (05); B8(06); B9(07); B6(08); B8(09) and B7(10)....but affiliated with CJC

I seriously do not mind even if i get into my 3rd choice and below schools because my parents and relatives have heard good feedback on Clementi Town, Fuhua Kranji, Bukit Batok.

So, my choices are safe considering i've chosen 2 schools above my COP, 1 school at my COP and 3 other schools below my COP?

thank you again.[/quote]
May I ask how to check the past years banding? thanks!
