2014 P1 Registration Exercise for 2015 In-Take

[sembgal]

Jia-Zhen:

I am joining the P1 registration exercise this yr. My situation is that my former sch is at Princess E and I will be moving house nxt yr to CCK and South View will be within 1km from my home. However, if I apply for South View, I will be at Phase 2C and the chances will be slim. What if I fail in Phase 2C? Or should I just apply for Princess E under Phase 2B?

Hi, you posted in wrong thread since you are joining Pri 1 registration this year. You should go to 2014 P1 Registration Exercise for 2015 intake to post your question.

I have a question.


Let’s say remaining in PH2C, there are only 20 seats left for balloting and below are the students based on their proximity.

a) 3 students staying are within 1Km (for whatsoever reasons that they did not enrol in earlier Phase)

b) 7 students staying are within 1-2Km

c) 20 students staying are outside 2Km

Total 30 students balloting for 20 remaining seats and all students are Singapore citizen.

Question:

1) Under PH2C, will the 3 students staying within 1Km from the school gets direct entry without going through the balloting exercise?

2) Or will all 30 students go through ballot exercise regardless of residence proximity? If so, how will the ballot exercise gives more priority to those students staying within 1Km, or there is no proximity priority anymore when comes to PH2C?

Thanks!

Since all are Singaporeans,
a) the 3 students staying within 1Km will be given direct entry.

b) 7 students staying within 1-2Km will also be given direct entry.

c) 20 students staying outside 2Km will have to go through balloting for the remaining 10 vacancies. 10 chosen ones are lucky and 10 disappointed ones have to move on to Phase 2CS.

available seats left = 20

< 1 km : 3
Answer: all 3 SC get in

within 1 to 2 km : 7
Answer : all 7 SC, also get in

Number of seats Taken up = 3 + 7 = 10
Thus, remaining seats left = 20 - 10 = 10

outside 2 km : 20
school begin to scrutinize all 20 - any PR inside ?
if Yes, request all PR to come out first.


After ask PR to stand one side -
school re-count carefully: now, left how many SC, outside 2 km ?

Answer
outside 2 km -
if Total SC applicants exceed 10 : balloting occur for SC only, outside 2 km

But if Total SC applicants equal 10 nicely, all SC get in, escape ballot.
(ie. by making all the PRs come out, school had rescued SC from the need to ballot)

But if Total SC applicants below 10 : means all SC get in, but still have some leftover vacancies for PR.
Then make the PRs < 1 km ballot.

Summary
whenever balloting arise in any Phase from (2A to 2C Supplementary) -
SC given priority.

PR < 1 km need to give way to SC > 2 km

Those who have been asked to come out -
no chance to ballot, will enrol the child in some other schools, make it in time before 4.30 pm closing time, still under Phase 2C.

I am joining the P1 registration exercise this yr.


My situation is that my former sch is at Princess E and I will be moving house nxt yr to CCK and South View will be within 1km from my home.

However, if I apply for South View, I will be at Phase 2C and the chances will be slim.
What if I fail in Phase 2C? Or should I just apply for Princess E under Phase 2B?

Phase 2A : enrol into your former school, Princess Elizabeth school, first.

on the last day of Phase 2C -
if South View (SV) no need ballot < 1 km, from your home : enrol into SV
(if you prefer SV to Princess E)

but if SV need to ballot, but CCK no need ballot -
decide if you want to remain at Princess E, or withdraw from 2A & enrol into CCK primary.

if CCK need to ballot -
stick back to Princess Elizabeth.

dfstan:

does anyone know where may I find the past year results of schools and the percentage of students scoring certain grades/points for PSLE, please?

for this, you need to call up or write in to ask that school you're interested in, discreetly.
(if you can't find PSLE results posted anywhere on the school's website)

Thank you phtthp.

Just to clarify on the part on red. What you mean is - after 1aug but before 6aug, parents whose kid need to ballot will be informed. Balloting is on 6aug.

You don't mean schools will inform parents who need to ballot on
6aug.

Correct?

Another question - if no need ballot, then I don't need to think about 6aug right?

Phase 2C registration (open to public) occupy 3 days -
start 1st day: 30 July
end last day : 1 Aug

depending on demand under each respective distance range : ( < 1 km, < 2km, > 2km) -
some need to ballot, while others no need.

those not involved in balloting -
can disregard 6 Aug.

but those involved in balloting -
school will notify parents before 6 Aug, to come down for balloting on 6 Aug.
