Shalom Presidency School, in collaboration with its career guidance
partner, iDream Career Blue Spring (iDC), organised a comprehensive Stream
Selection and Allocation Orientation Session for the parents and students
of Grade X on Saturday, 31st October 2026.
The session aimed to familiarise parents and students with the school's
stream allocation policy, subject combinations, eligibility criteria and key
parameters governing the allocation process. It emphasised the importance of
making well-informed academic choices based on individual interests, aptitude,
academic performance and future aspirations.
The orientation highlighted that stream selection is a significant
milestone in a student's academic journey, laying the foundation for future
learning opportunities and career pathways. Students were encouraged to
identify their strengths, explore their interests and look beyond conventional
career choices while making decisions about their academic future.
The session also emphasised the vital role of parents in supporting
their children through this important decision-making process. Parents were
encouraged to engage in meaningful conversations with their children,
understand their individual capabilities and provide guidance without imposing
preconceived expectations.
The collaboration with iDC added a valuable career-development
perspective, enabling students and parents to gain insights into the evolving
academic and professional landscape. The interactive session witnessed
enthusiastic participation, with parents and students seeking clarifications on
subject combinations, eligibility requirements, academic expectations and
diverse career opportunities.
