All About Primary Schools' Balloting History

[JT69]

Pls take note that per MOE:


"If statutory declaration is used, children who are registered using the address of either the grandparent or the parent’s sibling and residing within 1 km or between 1 km and 2 km from the school of choice are balloted together with the other children of the same citizenship residing between 1 km and 2 km"

Pls also take note of the 30 months new rule: "In addition, a child who gains priority admission into a school through distance category (including the eligibility to be balloted within those distance category) based on the child’s grandparent or parent’s sibling’s address is required to continue with the child-care arrangement at the address used for registration for at least 30 months, from the commencement of the P1 Registration Exercise on 2 July 2015"

In that case, it'll be better to change address if the distance is within 1 km.

You may wish to check this - http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/queenstown to know about the balloting history for Fairfield.

Fairfield is a rather popular school in that area, based on the balloting history, balloting is required for SC citizens for 1-2km for past 3 years. Since you're SPR, the chance of your child getting into this school is rather slim unless there's very very few SC citizens applying under 2B.

The # of places has been rather fixed at 270 for past years, don't think MOE will increase the # of places esp since birth rate for tiger yr is lower. No one can predict # of applicants in any phase, can only monitor when the P1 registration starts.

I agree with the previous poster. Fairfield is a popular school. Many SCs couldn't even secure a place there, so it's safe to say that you have no chance. You could monitor the registration process, but I suggest that you get a 2nd and 3rd schools of choice ready. The safest is New Town, but you might still get a chance to secure s place in Queenstown.

This year’s P1 registration dates have been announced on the websites. I would like to know if the Phase 2C registration is from July 27 to July 29 and the websites state that the results will be announced by Wed Aug 3, when will balloting be conducted? (For the schools that have balloting).

I can’t apply for last min leave from work, so if anyone has any idea when balloting may be done, I will be grateful. Don’t want to apply for wrong dates and have problems attending balloting if necessary. Thanks in advance.

You don't have to be present for the balloting.
The school will inform you of the outcome.

Typically, balloting is held on the results announcement date. Like what BigD said, you don't have to be present for the balloting.
