2013 P1 Registration Exercise for 2014 In-Take

EthanEthan:

Homework policy of AiTong:


1. There will be one ‘no homework day’ per week for all pupils. Wednesday will be the ‘no homework’ day. This mid-week break aims to help pupils ease and manage their workload and school activities better for the week.

2. Recognizing the important need for young children to spend quality time with their family, we will protect the pupils’ school and public holidays. The protected time is also to allow our children to pursue knowledge and learning beyond the academics. In view of this, the following shall be implemented:
(a) Homework shall not be issued before any major nationally recognized public holiday.
(b) Homework shall not be issued for school holidays: March, June, September and December.

No wonder everyone wants to get into the school..hahaha..
But I think it's really good..give the poor kids a break

This is a very good practice! Parents should lobby principals to implement at their kids school . Of course , don't say it is from Ai Tong..
Principal of 'good' school also want face..

Dear all,


DD will be registered under Phase 2C.

I would like to check do you have any idea how to withdraw if we register online? Do we need to go down to the school we registered previously via online to withdraw or we can withdraw online also?

Thanks for your advise

There are only 80 schools under the online system, are you applying for 1 of the 80 schools?
There's no mention of withdrawal though, any reason why you want to withdraw?

Hi,


I wonder for those that are not successful in the ballot for phase 2B,
are they still able to register their child for phase 2C?

Yes. Its one of the school. I was thinking to register online first and will monitor on the last day. If chances to get in is slim, then I will withdraw and register in another school. If chances ok, then I will leave it as it is.

[quote=\"carolkch1308\"]I m looking at plmgs under phase 2C. I m SC and within 1 km. I hope the trend follows the previous years whereby balloting only for 1-2km if there's any.


But I m worry abt the new condos that are flooding the area. Anyone knows whats the TOP for Bartley Residence? This development is the larger near PLMGS.

You should be worrying about The Minton.
That is also a hugh development opposite PLMGS.
Me worse, I am a SC 1-2KM away.
Confirm need to ballot. Dunno what is my chance.

I just did a research on The Minton. Its TOP is 2013, so those who bought this property can actually enrol their DDs in PLMGS in 2010 for their kids who is in P1 in 2011. Cos the MOE guidleine indicate that as long as the TOP is within 2 years after the kids enrolled in P1, parents can use the address for registration.

I hope I did not interprete the guideline wrongly.

So, we have to assume to some degree the prior year application number has already taken this group of kids into consideration.[/quote]Hi Carol,
I think they havent TOP leh.
I pass by them every week, currently it looks like its about 75% completed. All the blocks are build, but the individual units look raw. The facilities also not done yet.

The information shows:-

Expected TOP
30 June 2014

Legal Completion
31 Dec 2017
So which year should we look at for registration purpose? Any idea? :scratchhead:

It has 1145 units.

Neither. You should be looking for the contracted TOP date in the sales and purchase agreement. This is the date TOP must be obtained or else the developer has to start paying daily damages for delay.

Just checked MOE website. Withdraw has to be done online too. both parents must login to P1-IS to withdraw. You will see the message \"Your registration has been successfully withdrawn\" on the acknowledgement slip.
