KiasuParents - Parenting in Singapore

DC received 4 Confirmed Offers for the IP programs. Do we just indicate 1 choice of the school when we exercise the DSA preference form or do we need to rank our choices for maximum of 3 choices? Since they are all CO, I presumed just putting DC's first choice of school will do. Kindly advise if this is not the case. Thanks in advance.

When do the DSA selected students go online to apply school preference. Is this on 26 October. I hv not received the school preference form from the primary school.

Psle is finally over! Ugh!!

Received notification of parents' symposium for Hci WL/CO few days back.

May I know if anyone knows abt Hci's Step Up camp for kids? My friend told me every year, hci organises one for WL/CO students during psle marking days.

Thank you and best regards to all.

It's a camp for the students to mix around with the HCI seniors & get to know the school better. It is a good opportunity for the students to see if the school suits them before they "sign on the dot" on the DSA preference form. I treat it as a fun camp for my boy to play with his friends, a number of them went, so a good chance for the classmates to get together before they go separate ways after PSLE.

Yes, if they are CO, you just need to indicate one choice. Alternative choice applies for WL case.

Schools will give the School Preference Form to the students before 24 October 2016. I believe you should receive it this Friday since this is PSLE parking week (Mon-Thu) and you have not receive anything. Instructions are written clearly - You can either go online between 24-28 October to indicate your choices or submit the physical copy back to the School on or before 28 October.
