Dear parents, would appreciate your advice: I have heard some friends mention that nanyang primary school work is not as vigorous as other school like Tao nan or aitong or st Andrew. Is this true? I would like to enroll my dd to a good school with good values but at the same time, hope she can have a 'childhood'.

Nanyang Pri not vigorous?! My niece is there. On the first parents briefing, the principal assured parents their child can only but do well there, no need worry; parents are encouraged to let their children play instead. Then I hear even children of doctors drop out at and P3 &P4 bec of the stress. Do your maths.

IMHO, Nanyang is the most prestigious and top primary school. Make sure you put square pegs into round holes. If your child is just average, avoid NYPS. I applied to NYPS as PV and was rejected. Today, my child is in CCPS. She is happier there. Top in class, top in standard. Why be a small fish in a big tank, when you can be a big fish in a small tank? Have a thought, your choice. Btw, my 3rd child is registering for P2A1 st Andrews Junior and no, they are not vigorous.

I think it is best you call up the school you have in mind to check. Some did indicate they will either email or call up parents on the results.

But best to double check.

If your child needs to go through balloting, 06 Aug will be the day allocated for balloting. It is entirely up to you whether you want to be present to witness the balloting. Should your child be successful in the balloting and you are not in the school on that day, you may call up the school to enquire on the outcome. The school will subsequently send you a copy of the registration form, with information like orientation date indicated.

Usually, you will know by the end of third day of P2C registration whether your child will need to go through balloting. If your child doesn't need to go through balloting, you will also receive a copy of the registration form.

Amongst all primary schools :-
As of today, Nanyang primary is the top primary school in Singapore.

The school expect the best - expect pupils to excel, to be an all rounder. Pupils excel in studies, excel in sports ! Yes! the school is always on constant look out for bright talents - in the field of sports, in other cca(s).

If your child had undergone special training during pre-school (n2 to k2) days in competitive swimming, and your child is good in swimming -
you may consider seek transfer into nanyang.

sorry how do PR parents convert or apply for their children to be SC? don't think can till they enlisted in NS

Commitment period is longer for GRL route. To be safe (to get the endorsement letter from PA), you need to commit at least 2 years.

And got to pray hard they don't change the boundary in the next few years.
