hi can anyone tell me the full no. of students in each class ? Also how are the enrolment assigned, i.e. how many places for dsa, how many for affiliated students and finally how many for non- affiliated students entering through psle results ? if exact no. not known then a rough estimation would be appreciated. thank you.

I am not trying to justify, but just putting things in perspective. Dont really like the observations and comments from some of the participants singling out temasek as the worst ip school. Imagine how the students in that school feel. You may not say it, but you are alluding to it.

Just to inform you guys, TJC cut-off point this year dropped to 249 because they decided to enlarge their enrolment from 150 students to 170 students. If not, they would have stayed competitive.

Are there more people having CO from tjc ? Maybe we can start communicating via this website to each other.

My dd also has a CO from tjc. Actually, tjc ticks all the boxes for us. They are :

1) tjc only has ip leading up to jc. I am not sure everyone knows. For schools with both ip and o levels, there is a chance that yr dd or ds may drop out (or asked to leave ip) of ip if they do not do as well and the place will be taken by someone from o levels. For schools offering only ip, there is no such possibility
2) tjc is a well known name and its education has a broader exposure, unlike some schools which only focus on mugging for results
3) the school cohort is small and there are a lot more chances for participation and leadership by everyone. Smaller class size means teachers are more responsive and the atmosphere is more cosy
4) everyone coming in has no affiliation, so there is no cliques formed
5) lastly, school is only 5 to 10 minutes from our house by car
6) it is one of the top ip schools in the east

We checked the MOE website many times already. It is unclear as to what is this "minimum express score".

What is "at least express standard" ? I seem to be getting different answers from different participants in this forum

Thank u very much for clarification
