Anxious students and their hopeful parents quietly filed into Edgefield Secondary School's hall yesterday afternoon, where its pioneer batch of students received their O-level examination results.
Many, however, left with smiles as the school outperformed even some of the more established ones.
A total of 195 Secondary 4 students took the O-level examinations last year, and 93.3 per cent scored five passes or more, better than the national average of 83.3 per cent.
"I am proud of my students," said principal Leong Kok Kee. "For a new school, we have made a good start, but we have to continue building on what we have done well."
The school, which is in Punggol, started with 320 students, in both the Express and Normal streams, in 2011.
"Four years ago, these students began their secondary school education with us and, in the blink of an eye, some are now moving on to pursue greater things, in the ongoing journey to better themselves," Mr Leong said.
As with any new school, Edgefield had to prove itself.
"Any parent will be worried because there are no benchmarks to compare against," said 42-year-old manager Charanjeet Kaur, whose daughter Dashreen scored seven distinctions and one pass.
"But the students have set a high standard, and this is not possible without the hard work of the teachers."
More than 50 parents were present yesterday, many taking leave from work to be with their children.
Stanley Ho, 17, who achieved seven distinctions and a pass, said: "The school may not seem as good compared to others, but the teachers still made the extra effort to help us.
"There wasn't much pressure as we didn't have any seniors to compare with. We just had to do our best."
For some, the road was long and often arduous.
Samuel Lau, 17, was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome - a rare disorder in which a person's immune system damages its own nerve cells - when he was 14, and was in a wheelchair for weeks.
He needed four months of treatment, including intense physiotherapy, before he made a full recovery.
"I am thankful to the teachers who specially set aside time to go through the things that I missed," he said. He scored three distinctions and five passes.
His father, Mr Bernard Lau, a 45-year-old real estate agent, said: "There are many challenges that come with Edgefield being a new school, but it has slowly established itself over the years.
"At the end of the day, it is not about whether the school is established or not, but how much effort the students put in."

| Education Singapore |
| Singapore Education Overview Singapore is fast evolving into an international education hub, joining the league of New York, London and Boston. Students and professors from all over the world come to Singapore to learn, interact and pursue their careers. Singapore's reputation for quality education has also attracted some of the most prestigious education institutions to set up presence in the city. Since the turn of the century, reputable universities like University of Chicago, INSEAD, Canada's DigiPen Institute of Technology, Imperial College, Duke University, ESSEC of France and University of Nevada, Las Vegas have set up joint-programs or campuses in Singapore. Some have been successful; some have not been. The Singapore education system is a global experience that draws from the latest and the best in knowledge from around the world, blending the unique features of the east and the west. In fact, the entire country of Singapore is a school of lifelong learning.There is a whole ecosystem of government framework, education providers, study programs and financial schemes. Whether you are 3 years old or 30 years old, there is a program or course for you. Pre-SchoolPre-school education in Singapore serves to provide a good foundation for a child's intellectual and social development. The pre-school education is a structured 3-4 year program encompassing language, basic mathematics, simple science, music and play-learning.There are 2 years (N1 and N2) of nursery school, followed by 2 years (K1 and K2) of kindergarten. Primary SchoolPrimary school students receive a six-year education from Primary 1 when a child is 7-years old and ends at Primary 6 when he or she turns 12. The primary school curriculum focuses on the English language, a second language, Mathematics and Science. To supplement the core curriculum, there are non-examination subjects like music, physical education, art & craft and social studies. At the end of Primary 6, students will sit for an important examination called the PSLE or Primary School Leaving Examination which determines where he or she will go for his or her secondary education. Typically, the top PLSE students will gain admission to premier schools like Raffles Institution , Hwa Chong Institution , Raffles Girls'; Secondary School or Nanyang Girls'; High School which have integrated 6-year programs leading to junior college studies. Secondary SchoolSecondary school education will take either 4 years or 5 years depending on the academic abilities of the student. The secondary school curriculum is broader and offers a comprehensive array of subjects which include English, a second language, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, Philosophy and even Physical Education. Some schools offer Music Elective Program and Art Elective Program from Secondary 1. In addition to the traditional secondary schools, there are also specialized schools like the Singapore Sports School, NUS High School of Mathematics and Science and the new Singapore School of the Arts. At Secondary 3, students can opt for Arts, Science, Commerce or Technical streams. Secondary school education will take four years leading to the GCE "O" level examination or 5 years leading to the GCE "N" level examination. The duration of the secondary school education will depend on the student's academic abilities. Junior CollegeThe junior college education prepares a student for university. There are 2 options in Singapore comprising a 2-year junior college education or a 3 year pre-university course at the Millenia Institute. There are 19 junior college level institutions in Singapore. The new GCE A-level curriculum introduced in 2006 comprises H1, H2 and H3 subjects across a variety of disciplines. H1 are former AO subjects, H2 are normal A level subjects and H3 is similar to the S-paper in the past. Most JC-level institutions in Singapore offer the GCE A-level, except ACS Independent , St Joseph Institution and The School of Arts (SOTA) which offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) The top JC institution in Singapore is Raffles Institution - alma mater of Lee Kuan Yew and Goh Chok Tong. The top 7 junior colleges or JCs in Singapore are: Raffles Institution, Hwa Chong Institution, Victoria Junior College, ACS Independent, National Junior College, Temasek Junior College and Anglo-Chinese Junior College. Collectively, they are known as the Group of Seven ( G7) The IB Programme:- In Singapore and elsewhere in the world, students take 6 subjects, 3 at standard level and 3 at higher level. They choose from one from each of the following 6 groups: 1) Language 2) Second Language 3) Individual & Societies 4) Experimental Sciences 5) Mathematics 6) The Arts Additionally, they also have to take a subject known as Theory of Knowledge, a course which combines philosophy, religion and logical reasoning. Further, IB students have to write a 4000-word essay and carry out a community service project. How IB students are assessed and graded:- They are assessed via their portfolios, essays, practical work, presentations and written tests. The final exam generally takes up 70 to 80 per cent of their final grades. Each subject is marked out of 7 , with 4 as a pass The 6 subjects yield a possible maximum of 42 points and students can score another 3 bonus points for their Theory of Knowledge and the 4000-word essay. To earn the IB diploma, a student need to score at least 24 out of 45. Institute of Technical Education ( ITE )The ITE curriculum aims to develop technical skills and knowledge for the various industry sectors in Singapore. There are a broad range of institutional training and traineeship programs for students of all inclinations. The ITE education emphasizes practical, hands-on learning and is suitable for students who like to take up on more practice-oriented courses. Top ITE graduates can proceed to the polytechnics to advance their studies. PolytechnicsThe 5 polytechnics in Singapore have established a good reputation for providing highly valuable practice-oriented courses at diploma level. Courses provided range from engineering, info-comm, film & media studies to nursing and early childhood studies. There is a broad gamut of choices for all students. This is a popular route for students who favour a more practical learning experience over the more traditional academic learning approach. Many polytechnic graduates proceed to local and overseas universities to take up degree studies. The Singapore government sets up the Singapore Institute of Technology to bring overseas university programs to polytechnic graduates. The five polytechnics in Singapore are (in order of rankings): Singapore Polytechnic, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Temasek Polytechnic, Nanyang Polytechnic and Republic Polytechnic. UniversityThere are 6 universities in Singapore to cater to the demand for tertiary education. The National University of Singapore ( NUS ) is the biggest university in terms of enrolment. It is a comprehensive university offering programs in major disciplines, including medicine, engineering, humanities and business administration, amongst others. The Nanyang Technological University (NTU) is known for its strong technological background and engineering alumni. It is also well-known for its training programs for civil servants from developing Asian countries. NTU offers a joint medical degree program with Imperial College UK beginning 2013. The Singapore Management University ( SMU ) is new university with a fresh perspective. It specializes in business and management programs and aims to produce graduates who can thrive in a dynamic, global environment. Due to its strategic location in the heart of the city, it has become a university of choice for most aspiring business students. The fourth university is SIM University ( UniSIM ) an offshoot of the Singapore Institute of Management. It is the country's first and only private university focusing on the upgrading and learning needs of working adults. It specialises in part-time degree programs. The fifth university is the Singapore University of Technology and Design ( SUTD ) This new university will partner America's MIT and China's Zhejiang University in research, curriculum development and faculty exchange. It sits on the former campus of the failed University of New South Wales Singapore Campus. The sixth university announced in 2012 by PM Lee Hsien Loong is the Singapore Institute of Technology ( SIT) which offers degree programs with foreign universities targeted at polytechnic graduates. SIT has satellite campuses in all polytechnics, thus earning the nickname as the "polytechnic university" |

List of Junior Colleges (JC) (2013) in Singapore by Cut-Off L1R5 aggregate score (including bonus points
Below is the latest ranking of JCs that I have compiled based on their 2013 cut-off points. As expected, RI and HCI have remained at the top. Compared to 2012, NJC has outranked VJC, ACJC has outranked TJC, and NYJC has outranked AJC (remember I suspected this last year as I had one student who couldn’t get into NYJC science but could get into AJC science). But AJC now has a new principal (whom my ex-students say is good), so AJC’s fortunes may be reversed in the next few years. Lastly, Yishun JC has outranked Innova JC. Please note that this list is based on cut-off points, not A-Level results. Personally, I feel DHS and RVHS should allow O-Level leavers to apply to their schools to enrich their school environment.
