[Bukit Merah] Primary Schools
-
Love@Depot:
Your only option will be AP (1-2Km) which stands very good chance. Best use the One Map look around the possible schools in Bt Merah & plan your strategy. :xedfingers:My PV submission \"bo toh\" for RMPs even both of us are Civil Servants and willingly to contribute as much as we can; we even wrote proposal + CVs etc as if job interview :o( ... maybe too competitive ?
N really bo bian is tat d feeling is like \"u r sentence to death n yet dun knw wat yr crime was\" !! as their email said \"... Kindly refer to the Terms and Condition for the Parent Volunteer Scheme under Para 6 that the school will not be able share the reasons for non-selection. The school’s decision is final and we will not entertain any appeals ...\"
Pls advice the following :-
- as my mum lives at Bt Purmei -> can I use Caretaker phase instead - wat phase will tat be ? As now too disheartening n MOE website din really says ...
- may consider AP(within 1-2km) or shd I still try phase 2C for RMPS ? TIA for all your advice !! -
My boy will be eligible for Phrase 2A2 as his dad was a ex student of bukit ho swee for GESP. But we are more keen in AP… but however we are just a little bit close but fall under > 2km for AP.
if we couldnt get in to AP in 2C due to overwhemling response, dont know our chances of getting in GESP (we are 1-2km away) in 2C sup?
can give any wise advise? thanks in advance! -

Last year, GESPS conducted balloting in P2C. Hence, there was no P2CS for this school.My boy will be eligible for Phrase 2A2 as his dad was a ex student of bukit ho swee for GESP. But we are more keen in AP... but however we are just a little bit close but fall under > 2km for AP.

For me, I would register for GESP under phase 2A2. When it comes to phase 2C, I will monitor closely and withdraw from GESP to register for AP when the risk is low.

Sorry, may I know what is the criteria to be considered as risk is low? Will the school announce the number of applicants that live within 1km, and 1-2km?

School will not announce. I have read from other members that they called up the second school on the last day to check on the number of applicants that live within 1 km and 1-2 km. Based on the risk level on the third day, one of the parents will perform withdrawal from the first school and the other will register the child in the second school.

hellokittyspore,
Just withdraw at 4.20pm & register at 4.25pm so your stress will be just 5 minute. With the internet registration, I wonder how accurate the live result would be. :scared: -

You need to plan very well in Phase 2C to get into a Pri Sch. When come to Phase 2CS, your choices would be very limited & if you are again more than 2km from these schools, you may not have any chance to be ballot.My boy will be eligible for Phrase 2A2 as his dad was a ex student of bukit ho swee for GESP.

In summary, just make sure you still have within 1km to fight in Phase 2C supplementary if you fail at Phase 2C. Looking at this time round, GESPS should be coming very strongly. -
thank you all for the advices.
can i also check, how can we determine we can still register on the last day if to withdraw and register at the school? will the school tell how many vacancies left? sorry a bit green to this
