thanks jedamum, will seriously need to discuss this with my wife...she is going to be very disappointed.


Cheers

no worries. it is better to be informed now than waste your chance due to ignorance. study the balloting stats carefully and then map out a backup plan - 2yrs ago, i did my registration on the last day after lunch break after my first choice school (nearest school) staff confirmed that i stand no chance due to distance (ie 1-2km).
good luck.

Hi all,


I am a new user and daddy of 3. My eldest son is in K2 now and I am having headache on where to register him next yr.

1st choice SV - more than 1km less than 2km so meaning balloting require and chances not high.

Thanks and cheers

Hi,
If you are not staying within 1KM of SV, dont bother to waste time doing PV, cos last year PV ballot within 1KM, and those PV beyond 1KM just have no chance to ballot at all.
Similarly, phase 2C is very competitive for those within 1KM from the sch.

As for DLS, standard dropped already...
Some more they would move to Teck Wyne for 2 years, will become worse then....

attending p1 in 2012, registration is mid 2011.
go to the first post of this thread and click onto the balloting history stats to see which school you likely to have chance for your phase (eg for Unity, yew tee, de la salle, based on last year, there is balloting for less than 1km, so if you stay beyond that distance, you better have a backup school cos if there is still balloting within 1km, those staying beyond 1km is wasting their time/chance registering for these schools), beside deciding which one you should go for.
de la salle will be temporary relocated to teck whye, so you may want to consider that too.

Hi CSS,


Just to let u know tat S’porean kids would have 2 chances in the event of balloting as compared to 1 chance for non-S’porean kids.
You may want to take that into consideration esp if you are considering
SV where even those who had put in PV hours were seconded out for
those > 1km.

Cheers!

Yes based on past trends, u will need to ballot if u register in SV under phase 2C, even if u stay within 1km.

Registering in CCKPS would give u a more assured chance to get a place, if u do not wish to undergo the stress of balloting since CCKPS does not have a history of balloting under 2C.

If u register in SV and is unsuccessful in balloting, u will then have to go for phase 2C(supp). Getting a place at CCKPS under 2C(supp) would be much tougher than getting one 2C.

Of coz, the final decision lies with u. And this is just based on past stats, actual scenerio this year may be different

Outside of 1km under Phase 2C… can say not much chance with SV honestly.

Still can try if you want, but be prepared to battle out for balance seats in the
other CCK schools in Supplementary if your child doesn’t get that seat in SV.
