if you wish to compare only the Mainstream portion, particularly from mid (P4 to P6), in both ACS primary schools -
perhaps may borrow your friends' ACS children (P4 to P6) notes, English composition & Chinese 作 文 (both class compo exercises and compo Tests) & subject Tests papers for Chinese, English, Science, Maths,
take a look, do a comparison yourself : assess what is the difference in Mainstream standard (if any) between these 2 schools ?

In ACSJ,

- any chance SC living >2KM get seat in 2B?
- will there be more competition in 2B which end up balloting?

any thoughts?

If the situation is the same as last year, you will have a chance in P2B.

[hello420]

Thanks galaxyraider. Fingers crossed.

If we buy or rent a property within 1km of ACSP, we will register under phase 2C. Just would like to check, based on 2014 record, did all the applicants within 1km secure places in ACSP?


My husband was from ACS Secondary but not ACSP. Therefore, we are not qualified to register under phase 2A.

Many thanks!

everything depend on luck.
a lot of them rent a unit and try their luck, but I would say that, ACSJ stand a better chance. therefore, pls rent a unit that was within 1km between jnr and barker, at least u ve alternative choice.

Thank you very much! Yes, we should find a unit within 1km to both ACSP and ACSJ. It appears it is easier to get into ACSJ then ACSP.

this was in ST, but we heard its from SGS...... just remember, its safer if u rent a unit and stay there, I know its troublesome, thus u already have your own house right now.... but.... I would suggest you hold on to the unit, and never sublet it.
cheers

SINGAPORE - A self-employed man who lied about where he lived to get his daughter enrolled in a prestigious primary school was sentenced to two weeks' jail on Tuesday.

The nature of the offence is hard to detect and even a maximum fine would not be sufficient for deterrence, said District Judge Shaiffudin Saruwan.

The 35-year-old man, who cannot be named to protect his daughter's identity, is appealing against his sentence.

He pleaded guilty last month to giving false information to the school's principal on July 30, 2013.

A charge of lying to a police sergeant 10 days earlier to have the address on his identity card changed was taken into consideration.

The man indicated his address was within 1km to 2km of the school when he registered his daughter under Phase 2C of the Primary 1 registration exercise in 2013.

His identity card showed the address but the man actually lived in Balestier Road, which fell outside that radius.

The property at the address he provided belonged to his uncle's sister and had been rented out. His acts came to light when the Education Ministry visited the place.

The false information allowed his daughter to secure a place in the school. She was reportedly still enrolled there when he was charged on May 27 last year.

In his mitigation for a non-custodial sentence, defence lawyer Ramesh Tiwary said the man had a clean record and had never gotten into trouble with the law.

The man also intended to move into the address but was unable to do so because he was unable to contact the tenant, said Mr Tiwary.

For providing false information to a public servant, the man faced up to one year in jail, a fine of up to $5,000, or both.

In 2007, a lawyer was given 11 months' jail for forging and lying about his residential address in order to get his daughter into a reputable school in Bukit Timah.
