2013 P1 Registration Exercise for 2014 In-Take

To qualify for this year's Phase 2A1:-

For a child whose parent is a former student of the primary school and who has joined the alumni association as a member not later than 30 June 2012.

So for parents to qualify to register under 2A1 next year, they should have joined their alumni association by now, i.e. before July. Otherwise it's too late.

Thanks for pointing it out, CayennePepper! It is restrictions like these that make it so important for parents to be well-informed and prepared many years in advance.

Np... my job as a ksper
I almost got caught by this date issue a few years ago, when registering my dd :oops:

Once in a while MOE quietly changes/adds some words here and there, so parents, please read every single word and don't rely on what you hear.

When I registered my ds1 for p1 many years ago, immunisation records were required, \"if available\". Subsequently, in the year i registered my dd, these two words disappeared. Unaware of this, a friend didn't bother to get hold of her child's records, and was informed by her school that her application could not proceed because her immunisation record was not submitted. :scared:

So it pays to be kiasu AND kiasi :siam:

Like me calling the school even though I knew dd1 submitted the registration form LOL

SAHM, yup, my friend claimed she almost collapsed on the spot because it was late afternoon of the last day of that phase!

You're right about being kiasu and kiasi for p1 registration 不怕一万只怕万一!

Plus dont just read MOE website. If want to be PV MUST read school’s website too becos some schools close their PV period earlier. Some are 2 yrs earlier before the P1 registration date. So there are many 万一 for P1 registration.

The real "battle" will start for Aitong for 2015 P1 Registration Exercise for 2016 In-Take as mentioned above that parents need to be alumni member 1 year before(30 June 2013) the registration. So for next year registration, I think the results might be similar to this year.

Maybe in 2015, there will not be even phase 2A2, and balloting in phase 2A1, that will really be the ultimate scenario…

From the http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/primary-one-registration/files/p1-is-step-by-step-guide-2013.pdf, I don't see any field for submitting the immunisation record. I suspect because it is all electronic and you have verified yourself using Singpass, the system will automatically pull the immunisation record from the NIR site.

According to the http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/primary-one-registration/required-documents/:
\"Parents who registered online through the Primary One Internet System (P1-IS) will have to produce the originals of each required document to the school when requested or upon reporting to the school.\"

So apparently you print and then wait until they ask you for them lor.

Wah! I didn't realize printing out immunization stuff is so important, until now. Thanks for highlighting.
Btw, that day Did your friend bring along her original baby medical booklet with all the injections done? If yes, she could have shown them, zap a copy and submit to the p1 registration officer, on the spot. Then her registration would have gone through.

Because some of my friends told me they intend to print out from the baby booklet. They not going to login using sing pass account, to print out the summary. I hope they know what they are doing.

Scary hor. Really must be kiasi with required documents!
Oh, my friend's son was born overseas, so no baby booklet to show. She had to go through a lot of trouble to produce some kind of record to satisfy the requirements. Had to beat the clock too!
