South View Psle results academic standard better than Princess Elizabeth.
Stay put at South View.
Do not come out.
Hi Phtthp,
That is what we have heard too. Do you have datas of PSLE results of both Southview and PEPS for the past a few years? Keen to find out how big is the difference in academic standard in these two schools so as to judge whether it is worth the traveling. School bus fares aside, we are more concerned with the time spent on travelling to and from Southview and my child may need to get up very early once he reaches P3 to catch the school bus in the morning and hence get very tired as a few parents have mentioned.
Thank you! -

Btw, we are more interested in how many students have hit the benchmark, eg, how many have scored more than 250, the passing rate of the schools vs national average, rather than the top score of the schools. Thanks again. -
Dear Parents,
balloting is a very stressful process and however the odds may look good, not getting a slot is very real.
I would advise parents who have secured a slot in earlier phases to reconsider this strategy unless absolutely necessary.
Good luck to all tomorrow -

I think most parents know how stressful balloting can be. But some parents really have no choice because they are right next to super popular schools. That's why distance priority is so important.Dear Parents,

Blur me just realized online registration has closed today. I thought I could register online tomorrow afternoon but now have to take last minute leave to go down to the school...!

I agree that balloting is too stressful and it’s much wiser to avoid it at all costs no matter how tempting it may be to try… Because all it takes is for a few more parents who also want to try their luck st the last minute on Friday afternoon and the whole situation will change!

The transport has improved since 20 years ago. With the extension of the mrt lines, taking public transport is so convenient. It is only a matter of a few short years that the child will take school bus. When the child is independent, she will take public transport to school.
Well said..a colleague of mine shared the same sentiment on how she had to travel long to school n doesn't want her daughter to go thru Tt.
Comparing 20 years ago transport to today's extensive network of mrt lines, it makes me wonder if you know mrt travels faster than car? 20 years ago, the transport network was so poor. Today, increased connectivity made transport network on mrt lines so convenient. In the long term, the child is not taking school bus till P6. -
