2014 P1 Registration Exercise for 2015 In-Take

[phtthp]

jetsetter:

Yu Neng Primary is very popular amongst its old boys/girls.
Only 2 vacancies left for tmr 2A2.

many years ago in 1935 (historical days), Yu Neng started off as a Chinese school.
Her Chinese traditional values and roots, are strong.
Yu Neng is a good school, came a long way.
popular school in Bedok
Last time because Chinese school, so only Chinese students enrolled.

years later : then slowly began to introduce English stream, into her curriculum.
Today, a lot of multi-racial kids attend.

rains, jetsetter - Thanks for your advice. Will go down to my preferred school(SCGS) tmr and monitor in person, but likely to do the de-registering at 4pm. Keeping my fingers crossed…


Good Luck to all in Ph2A2 and in the rest of the Phases.

This thread is making me so nervous even though I do not have to register this year.


Catholic high is so competitive!
I am worried next time I cannot even get in under 2a1 sighs.

If 2A1 ballot one fine day, Yes, possible that > 2 km can't return.

Can consider other school, if you had ever Transferred primary school before, in the past.

OR

your spouse still have his primary school report card, and his school still exists or merge with others (not closed down)
Then can enrol your child into your spouse ex school.

BaconEgg:

There should be a rule to forbid parents who had secured a placement to withdraw and to re-register to try their luck in other phases.


It gives parents who are not in the earlier phases unnecessary stress. So what if there are 40 seats reserved for phase 2B and 2C, those unsuccessful in earlier phases will still chiong for these 40 seats!

Its only a matter of earlier chiong or later chiong!

This rule to forbid parents from withdraw & then re-register, won't happen.
Bec if it happen, there will be people writing to Straits Times, to stop it.

Because a lot of parents are currently doing PV in Popular schools, doing PV in clans, or doing GRC / PAP community work, or getting involved in church activities, temple activities, etc.

Many of them would have enrolled in their own 2A ex primary school, first.
So they had already secured a place for their child, in their own school.

But they don't like their own ex school : for whatever reasons.
That's why they are clocking up hours one by one, doing all these Phase 2B (PV, clan, church, GRC) work.
So at an appropriate time due, they'll withdraw their child from their already enrolled P2A ex school, to re-register the same kid, under P2B, in some popular schools.
For GRL, they have the special privilege to pick & choose which school they desire most, from the whole of GRC.

Is this true?

I always thought only the school that issues the leaving cert (ie. the school where psle was taken) is applicable :scratchhead:

for 2A2 -
as long as you can show report card proof that you'd ever studied in that primary school before, can go in already.

The school only looking for proof that you are an ex-student from that school. That's all.

Example

GEP students
P1 to P3 : study in a non GEP school
P4 to P6 : changed to a GEP school

PSLE cert : only reflect the GEP school PSLE results
but this parent is holding 2 report cards.

So, can this parent (say, mother) go back to enrol in her (P1 to P3) alma mater, using her report card ?
Of Course !

But do you think she'll want to choose the Non-GEP school ?
most people think she won't : because given a choice between a GEP school and a non-GEP school, obviously she would pick the GEP school, right ?

Answer :
may not be.
look at Henry Park (GEP school) : need to ballot now, at 2A2
Suppose she come from say, River Valley primary. (non GEP)

suppose she fall under 2A2 > 2km, from Henry Park.
given a choice between HPPS (need to ballot) vs River Valley, which is a safer bet ?
River Valley !

another scenario
suppose another parent (father) also 2A2 > 2km, from Nan Hua primary.
suppose this father also holding 2 report cards : Nan Hua and say, Fairfield Methodist primary.

now that Nan Hua has to ballot, which one will he choose ?
Fairfield Methodist : because no need to ballot, very safe.

when come to 2A2 -
no need to just rely on PSLE Cert.
if you want that, can.
if not, use Report card, also can.

is there any minimum number of years that you must study in a school, to say that you are an ex student from there ?

MOE never state any minimum number of years.
So long as you can show report card, schools will accept this reason.
schools just looking for proof
Report card is the proof

Yes, phtthp's excellent scenario planning.

Some parents attended 2 pri schs, bebebub. so can apply at either sch under Phase 2A.

Dear All Mommies,


I’m considering a 2nd option school between Zhong Hua & Yang Zheng Primary. any input?
A kindergarten teacher once told me that Yang Zheng school is quite small - mean the premise is small.

Is it true?

[heaven_angel]
