Hi all, my girl is due for P1 registration in 2017 and my preferred school is a methodist school which does not accept PV, therefore I am considering this route to qualify for 2B registration.


My question: With the recent change in rule that we need to serve 2 years to qualify under 2B, does it mean I have to be appointed as executive member in the RC by 30 June 2015 in order to qualify? Also, how long does it take for an observer to be promoted to EC?

Greatly appreciate your advice.

With the new ruling, one has to give 3 years buffer. Typically confirmation for an observer will be 6 months for the Chairman to assess your contribution. Thereafter, you have to give buffer for PA to do all the necessary paper and issue to you the certificate.. .best to give at least another 3 months

Hi daddy2007, thanks for your advice.


I am currently not staying within the GRC of my choice school but intend to shift within 1KM of the school by Jun 2015 when my current lease is up. In such a case, can I volunteer my service (as observer) at the RC within the GRC of my choice school now?

Unfortunately you can't now. PA will assign you to the RC where you currently reside. Unless you join the CCMC or CCC in that GRC

Hello…

Can anyone advise me on this- typically how many GRLs will apply for phase 2b ?
Is there a cap on how many can join to become one in the first place or it depends from constituency?
Thanks.

Hi all, if we were not told to login to PA site to submit request for primary one registration letter, can I still use my hubby’s exec member appointment letter as proof when registering for phase 2b?


Thank you very much

Nope. School only recognise the ONLY letter issue by PA (signed by your constituency director) that you are eligible for P2B registration.

In order to get this letter, you have to login to PA site to apply for it.

This is the first year that Henry Park Primary will have 20 seats reserved for 2B- Grassroots in the constituency should be able to get in without any balloting this year in 2B - anybody else realising this ?

Thanks Tansg for pointing that out!!!
Indeed very good chance for HPPS this year under phase 2B. previous years always have less than 20 seats on 2B/2C? GRLs for Bt Timah shd monitor the nos v closely between HPPS and NYPS who only has like 23 seats in 2B....
