Hi Parents,


Anyone has information on how had HIPS fare in PSLE over the past 3 years. I am unable to retrieve any information from the school's website. Called up and emailed the school but no reply from them.

I have intention to send my kids to HIPS but am a little disappointed over their lack of response and replies over my requests. Not even a we will get back to you shortly kind of reply.

How's the school? Anyone comments?

for 2009 PSLE highest is 272..one failed the PSLE. My son is from there and now in Sec 1 this yr. I have juz transferred my daughter from P4 this yr to PLMGPS which i think is more rounded compared to HIPS.

can pm me the details too?

Thanks

son said more difficult than Math…any comments from other parents??

sorry…actually wanted to write, my son also commented that the passage is the same but questions are different…

sorry post wrongly :oops:

My neighbour’s grandson is fm Montford and he is in P2 this yr and even got a chance to go Jakarta for badminton tournament…which i think is quite a good exposure.

Thanks for "reinforcing" what you have seen. means is not just my own perception.


Actually HIPS is a SAP sch because MT is HC and is closed to 99% Chinese. Other than that, they are like normal sch - nothing special. Again got to stress, if your kids can get to elite class, than i think it is good to go there coz will be taught by HODs.

I can say that my son only get to have good Chinese teacher in P5 and P6 and his English teacher in P6. Here unlike other sch will not have Parent-teacher meeting unless your kids is the top students or "worst" students and normal students…nothing. Mine falls in this normal category…that’s why!! for info, my son has been blaming me why i choose that sch for him and not Xin Min. Imagine, Xin Min no balloting in year 1996!!

BTW, you might be wondering why i have so many things to complain…because I have 2 nephews in elite class in the same level and that’s why I can see the different!!

If you were to stay in Hougang, comparing the students from Xin Min Sec and Holy Innocents’ High, you will "see" why. My son’s greatest fear is to get into that sch because they have heard too much "bullies" there and they prefer to choose North Vista Sec.

Hi, my two kids are in HIPS now. thank god one is in P6 and another already secured a place to transfer to PLMGS. I felt I have made a wrong choice for giving my kids to study there. In conclusion, if your kids is super smart one, than go there else it would be good to send them to other sch and also the affliated Secondary sch is also not a good choice to move on. juz for sharing only
