Hi parents, my name is Amelia and I'm a journalist with The Straits Times covering education.


We are working on Primary1 registration stories and looking for parents to speak to.
If your son or daughter is applying under any of the phases - 2a2, 2b and 2c - I'll really appreciate if you could just contact me as soon as possible!

For today, 2a2 would be most urgent.
Thanks very much. I can be reached at 91903116.

Your news gathering / Journalist team may go down today, around 3 pm to:-
CHIJ St Nicholas / Catholic High, Nan Hua, Henry Park, Nanyang, Yu Neng, Radin Mas, Fairfield -
catch 2A2 parents on the spot, interview them how they feel, esp. those staying > 2 km.

around 4 pm -
schools will be more clear on what distance range parents need to ballot, for those schools that're involved in 2A2 balloting.

another 45mins to closing for the morning registration

normally the adrenaline pumping come around after ... 3 pm, where parents had made decision, place their final bet, which school they want.

but still the noon duration is onli 2hrs not as bad as morning 3.5hrs. I think for phase 2a final pumping impact should b better than phase 2c

I'd suggest Amelia to spotlight Yu Neng, Radin Mas cos their alumni/old boys and girls take-ups have been rather significant this year. Why do they choose to go back to their alma mater.

Yes, good idea !

these two schools surprise many parents this year, with their high 2A2 enrolment.
should zoom in on them, more interesting !

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!

Ya. If not defeat the purpose of \"giving more seats\" in phase 2B and 2C. Its just shifting one problem into another phase. Really cannot understand how they come out with all these policies changes?
