Anyone who will be registering next week under Phase 2B and is staying >2km from the school?


Looking at the past statistics, there will be balloting for >2km but the number of vacancies for this year is lesser because they have reduced their intake by 30 seats.

I am feeling the stress now…

Strongly suggest that you start considering and looking at a back up plan now.
There is a possibility that >2km may not even have a chance ballot this year.

Reduced by 30 seats, is a lot.
means one class of P1 students gone, as 1 class have 30 kids.

This imply very high likelyhood that ballot will occur for SC : between 1 to 2 km, at most.
Parents staying > 2 km : must have backup plan, consider other schools in mind.

If they reduce intake by 30, it does not mean the intake will always remain at 270 for the next few years right? I’ve checked out the tables and it seems like this is the first time in recent years they reduce the intake…

Hi,

I m registering next year for my boy too. Also within 1 km to MSH. We are going by the Phase 2B route. Yourself?

Basically, for P1 registration. There are 5 main phases:
Phase 1: for siblings of current students.
Phase 2a1: for parents alumni.
Phase 2a2: for parents who are not alumni, kids who has siblings who used
to study in that school and staff of the school
Phase 2b: parents volunteer, GRLs, clans or church endorsement
Phase 2c: for all kids who are not able to register in the above phases.

Historically, there's no balloting for kids staying within 1 km for MSH. But u must take note that this year there's a reduction of 30 places for P1 cohort as compared to previous years. Also, next year Residents of Bartley residence can use the address to register for a place at MSH too. So, there's a chance that 1 km may need balloting if the applications exceed the places available.

Statistics are just for reference. Situations changes. So have to play by ears sometimes.

Hope the above helps.
