[Tampines] Primary Schools
-
Gumbokins:
Totally agree with you!!! I realised I have so many friends/acquaintance whose kids are due for p1 next year...With this year being a bumper year of '07 babies, the historical trends may not be so reliable? I see my back up school is also filling up fast *gulp
(Tells self) every school is a good school every school is a good school
Even if I withdraw frm SHPS, my home address is 1-2km for the rest of the schools around my vicinity. Which means I won't be given the priority to enrol too... Might as well give it a shot and pray that miracle will bestow upon my girl :please: -

Belle08,All the best for those trying for ballot! It's tricky when we dont have a fall-back plan..
We also wanted to do that but we don't have the backup plan..
To fall under P2Cs and w/o a backup plan, it's worrying.. my DH dont want us to \"risk\" the chance to end up with nothing.. And to have to go thru balloting in CS.. and ended up (touch wood) :xedfingers: - unable to get into any one that we desire...
Quote from one mummy online:
\"A piece of advise from my experience. If you really want to go for ballot, you really have to mentally prepare yourself for the worst to go for phase 2CS. Remember if you (touch wood) didn't get balloted in phase 2C, the schools left for 2CS will be minimal. Not talking about good schools, even those average schools are all being taken up, left with no choice, we have to choose a sch which was far away from our house in a different zone area. Ended up dc has to wake up earlier than others and be the latest to be home on the sch bus!
For those parents going for ballot, remember to have in place a backup plan with a sch that you think you will have a chance to be in without another round of ballot in phase 2CS.\"
Thanks for the word of advise... The same scenario happened to a friend of mine... Am mindful of such situations can happened... Back up school with vacancies are hard to predict these days...
May i ask which school did you enrol your child??? No balloting involved??? -
I am torn between Tampines Primary and Junyuan. Which school should I choose? I tried looking for their psle results but I don’t know how to compare between the 2. Both giving different things. Help!!

I will chose Tampines over jun yuan as jun yuan's maths and science PSLE passing rate is below national standards. Apart from that, Tampines is single session which I personally prefer.
However at present, Tampines pri is confirmed balloting for SC, within 1km only... Perhaps you might want to call up both schools to find out for SPR registration... -

I counted 6 Tampines schools to go under Balloting this morning. Hope it stops there or else backup plans can be affected as well...

Flowee, I was at SHPS on day1, my number was 23 which was no surprise given the history of its P1 registration. Lets hope all turns out well. -
