Actually how many IP govt schools are there?

I can only name TJC,NJC, RVHS, Dunman High, St Nick Girls?
There are only 5? Did I miss out any?

How come there are only so few for IP? :shrug:

VS, Cedar.

To be fair, not that many private IP as well (not counting in those offering IB prorgamme).

You're right! Most of them in the central/east area...
Not sure if the government is planning to increase more IP schools... if so, hopefully in the west area...

I dont think will have anymore.... I recalled reading a write up last year which matches the number of seats to the top 10% of psle scores, seems like the seats are more then enough

In fact, I find the combi of Cat High, St Nic and SCGS very odd. Think they tried too hard to try to accommodate SCGS...they probably couldn't find an 'equal' status male partner for them within that few km.

The 1st two are catholic mission schools and also government aided, ie, pay normal school fee. SCGS, on the other hand is non religious and is independent.
