Henry Park Primary

[phtthp]

The reservation starts from Phase 1, this year 2014 July

(with 2008 born kids)

example:
MOE had shown that Total Available vacancies for Phase 1, at Henry Park primary, is 300

http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/primary-one-registration/vacancies/#bukit-timah/

let’s refer -
last year (2013), HPPS primary intake
Total vacancies = 300

After reserve \"40 compulsory\" seats (set aside) -
reservation starts from Phase 1 : (300 - 40) = 260 vacancies, available

@ end of Phase 1 (sibling) : 164 Taken

@ end of Phase 2A1 (alumni) : 62 Taken

i)
260 – 164 = 96 (balance)

is balance 96 sufficient, for Phase 2A1 ?
Yes, because 62 out of 96.

do 2A1 (alumni) need to ballot ?
No need

ii)
260 - 164 - 62 = 34 (balance)

How many 2A2 actually registered ?
60

is balance 34 sufficient, to accomodate Phase 2A2 ?
Not enough
shortage of (60 – 34) = 26 seats

do 2A2 (ex-students) need to ballot ?
Yes
26 HPPS children from 2A2, would have been balloted out.

amongst the 26 kids -
all PR < 1 km : would need to give way to, SC children first.

Ahhh...But what if all the 2A2 parents registered in time to the alumni association last year and became 2A1?

That would mean that in 2A1 there will be 62+60 = 122 2A1 applicants fighting for 96 seats. So there will be balloting!

At the end of the day, if you want to be \"guaranteed\" a place in HPPS, live within 1km! Rentals start at $5000 month for a studio unit at Greentrees.... :censored:

LOL, HPPS is elite school meh ?

Henry Park primary offer GEP programme to P4 to P6 students.
Thus, it is considered an elite school.
Many children from other schools transfer into here, at P4.

Mainstream standard -
may have to check.

under Phase 2C -
Balloting occurred within 1 km, with very limited seats.

This year, look out for Phase 2A.

Sad to say, to me the PSLE results still not comparable to the 'elite' schools that i know. I only know to depend on ourselves and not the school too much. However despite that, children still not excelling in school. At least they are having fun...[/quote]It's important that our kids are enjoying themselves in school.
My son comes back home happy everyday and his homework load seems manageable.. at least for the time being (he's in P2).. :xedfingers:
he doesn't seem as stressed as his cousins in another so-called 'elite' school nearby.. I've not had to send him for any tuition yet, other than Chinese enrichment (we speak mainly English at home)...

Hi sorry to cut in, any parent can tell me what is the timing for morning session? Ytd receive email frm hpps tt next yr will change to single session.


Thinking wat tym the sch bus wil arrive at my place which is located at dover crescent.

[Sun_2010]

It was in the LTP sent out on Monday.


Regarding timing, I believe it will remain the same as the current morning session. Only changes that there will be staggered recess ( 3 sessions) and assembly for p1/2 will probably be at the Kidz Zone.

HI, trying to gather interest lists on sch bus for those staying Punggol/SK/Hougang area… I understand currently they do not have any… Trying to see if there’s demand then can possibly talk to the operator. Thanks!
