NIS k1 offer

Does anyone got the offer from NIS? my son got offer for PM class. Lets share more info here. Thanks!

Hi me too.  but I worry whether it is a through-train to P1.  The other consideration is NIS has no secondary school yet.  I worry my son will have no place in IS secondary but very hard back to LS.  Any advice?

i got k1 offer as well. i don't concern secondary school very much as i may send my kid to Canada after primary school. I am also struggling about the through-train issue, and i will ask the school next week.

wow then you really like NIS. You even move home for it! So you definitely will accept the offer?

I am offered AM session.

I asked another current parent in ek and she told me that actually some will leave in K2/P1 and go to ESF and other IS, mainly because NIS doesn't have secondary.

seems that the competition is not that "high". I called school and they are in mid-term break. Will call again next week.

RC and ESF are harder to get in than NIS. i love NIS because it is more down-to-earth and pure and less commercial.

curriculum is different but one of current parents told me that there is no difficulty to pick up the ESF/ other IS academic learning in secondary school.

We went to the interview and still haven't received anything from the school. I guess we don't get the offer.

:( My son received a "turn-down" letter. We didn't attend any playgroup in NIS, Are most of you get admitted attend playgroup ?

:(

dwide7

Yes, my son had attended playgroup.  I think they give priority to playgroup attendees.

little_gigi

Thanks so much for your information !!
We couldn't attend playgroup since our grandparents not willing to take bb there, It's a little bit far from our home. I really like the school hope they can put me into waiting list !

tsewest

Me too.  my son joined the playgroup also

queenie1985

Me 2....my son joined the playgroup. Quite surprised that they didn't let us choose am or pm..

teresaleung80

my son didnt join their PG, and indeed his performance in interview was quite bad. we thought he wont be able to get the offer!! luckily he got the PM class offer!

alicebear
