hi sunnyboy, why not just call up the office and ask them. I read somewhere that moe grants only 1 subsidy but not both...regardless eesis, mep, gep etc.

I got reply from school saying the student can get one grant only.

MdmKS:

If your kid is in Independent school such as RI and NUSH and awarded EESIS($200 per month) which is still insufficient to pay full of the school fee($300+). On top of the balance you have to pay for school fee, you will have to pay for MEP which is monthly $200. Am I right?

yes you are right, Independent school has higher school fee.
Anyway MEP is free, the MEP subsidy is used to offset school fee.

edanson:

Hi SunnyBoy,


Yes, that is what we were told. EESIS, RSP or GEP but the end result is you will still get one only. $2400 per year. Even if you get 2 or 3 of them, the balance $1200 will still not be included unless you apply for the finacial assistance.

Hope the above help.

How was the meeting yesterday? I was busy and did not attend. Was the P there too?

Any great news ? Are you also helping out in the school as in parent volunteer?

the RPA networking is not bad, i met parents of my son's classmates and shared information.

DP for student development gave speech in the RPA session and answered questiones and concerns from parents, especially on group assignment and \"Bishan Uncle\".

SunnyBoy:

undestand MEP is a subsidised program. If a child takes MEP, and his PSLE points passed EESIS COP also, will MOE grant him both MEP subsidise and EESIS? thanks in advance.

I didn't know we have to pay extra for MEP? Not \"free\", ah? :shock:

MEP is free. once your child applied for MEP successfully, he / she can get school fees subsidise about $200 per moth from MOE.

turquoise:

No. Only one grant.

thanks turquoise.

top 25% independent school students will be granted EESIS. but in term of PSLE points, the COP for EESIS is how many? need to have a target.

Has of your child been confirmed for RI or HCI after the recent interview?

RI will release the DSA results on Monday.
