2017 P1 Registration Exercise for 2018 In-Take

So for your niece, there's no option and she will have tougher competition due to dragon year, unless there's a strong enough reason to defer, but you need approval from MOH.

this niece would either be registered in bukit merah (where they stay) or sengkang (her maternal side). reason is mum can't help with school work. both parents work long hours in changi area.

just curious what was the birth rate like for 2012, the dragon year vs 2011?

Thanks Galaxyraider, look like next year should be a seamless P1 registration exercise for parents. Notice a trend that every year we have more males than females...boys' schools, co-ed would be in demand vs girls' schools.

[quote=\"ChiefKiasu\"]Thanks, qms! The following year, 2018, would be a truly nail-biting year for P1 Registration, with the bumper crop of Dragon babies!

Will be interesting to see the number of shows that require balloting in P2A(1) and P2A(2) in 2016 and 2017. Could send a lot of shivers down the parents of cohort 2019.

Parents should seriously consider joining their desired schools' Alumni sooner than later, if they are really concerned.[/quote]And even then, in dragon year, a handful of schools could be balloting at 2A1... so join alumni and make sure you live nearby if you really want to avoid the ballot box. And even then..... all 2A1 registrants in some schools could one day all be within 1km.... :faint: :siam:

hi everyone ! my DD born June 2011, aiming MGS (P2A1). Pray very hard no balloting is needed at this phase in 2017.

Now that we see more and more parents planning way ahead for their children's schools, it is perhaps a little late that we start this thread only now.


So, parents who are registering in 2017, please fall in here.

Hi All,

My twin boys will be registering in 2017 for 2018 Primary 1 intake. Just sent in my membership application to the SHKH.

Great! Hope you can get in. There are many benefits of being a member of SHKH, other than the P2B priority for SHKH affiliated schools. It comes with many Chinese cultural programmes that you can sign up for which are very good for your child in preschool or primary school.

My main aim is to get them into P2B, as schools around me are more than 2km distance. Also hope to find some programmes for them to participate rather than spending time watching Power Rangers.

Some schools require balloting in 2B, just need to watch out and plan accordingly.
