Hi good day everyone … I m new to kiasu parents… Pls guide me on further…
Just would like to understand … I m an expat n looking for primary 1 registration in any public school
Had tried to find if any school has been taking in for phase 3… Couldn’t find any updates further rather than phase 2C
Does this mean there is no intakes for phase 3 in the public schools … If any pls let me know the school details
Thanks in advance -

MOE only releases data up to Phase 2C(S). For Phase 3, there are only a handful of schools with places remaning, and these places are in hot demand by non-SC or PRs. Phase 3 is first-come-first-served, so you should make your way down to your desired school to register on the morning of 26 August. In any case, once the Phase 2C(S) results are confirmed on 17 August, you should call up your desired school to find out how many places are available, and how you should go about registering for them.Hi good day everyone ...

Chief, phase 3 this year does not seem to be first-come-first-serve...

Taken from https://www.moe.gov.sg/admissions/prima ... ion/phases:
Parents of non-Singapore Citizen (SC) / non-Permanent Resident (PR) children should note that admission is not guaranteed as there are limited vacancies remaining for non-SC / non-PR children after places are allocated to SC / PR children.
MOE will publish the list of available primary schools for parents to register their child in this phase. MOE will thereafter centrally process all the applications and the posting outcome will be released to parents by 30 November 2016. -

MummySS:
my daughter is in an all girls' school while son was from a co-ed school.I am slightly torn between a Co-Ed school Versus a Girls school.
Any opinion will be greatly appreciated...
Is the peer pressure more in an all girl environment.
I was in Co-Ed school.
However my Girl likes a girl's school...
TiA
son told me back in primary school, there were 2 groups...girls and boys. the girls tend to be more mature and are ahead of the boys where work is concerned. there is pressure to work hard to 'save face'. my daughter enjoys going to school everyday because it is FUN...all the girly stuff. I was formerly from an all girls' school, so I completely understand that kind of feeling...there is also a kind of closeness between the girls. -

Oops, that's right. I forgot. Thanks for the clarification. In any case, parents will still have to register on 26 August to be considered for a place. It is just that they will only find out whether they have secured a place on 30 November, a month before the start of school.Chief, phase 3 this year does not seem to be first-come-first-serve...

Actually this central processing makes the applications for foreigners even more uncertain. The lack of transparency in the allocation of places for foreigners may lead to accusations of money politics where seats may be granted to foreigners deemed to be more \"desirable\" by the ministry. I think SCs and PRs should better appreciate the priority given to them, seeing how difficult it is for foreigners to get a place in our schools. -
ChiefKiasu:
They allocate the school as and when they like. Foreign siblings don't even get to attend the same school. True story. Happened to my foreigner friend. Worst, the 2 schools are not even close to each other. Not even close to their home.

Hello,
I would like to ask a question.
Before I make a decision whether to go ahead to register my child for Phase 2B in a popular school, how will I know
a) the total number of applicants,
b) the number of SCs and PRs and
c) the number of applicants for each category for home-school distance (ie no of applicants living less than 1km, no of applicants living btw 1-2km to the school etc)?
Will the above information be put up in the schools after the end of the first day of registration
so that I can make a decision whether to go ahead to register my child in that school on the second day of registration.
Would appreciate a reply if you know the answers to the above or any advice. Thank you.
Just for my curiosity, how many choices are you eligible for in P2B, besides this popular school?
Hi qms,
There are two popular schools that I am considering and I qualify for both under P2B. -
Would like to thank ChiefKiasu, Missinex, zac's mum and Sam_Yishun for taking the time to answer my question. Appreciate it and it was a great help!

Hi! Any parents trying for phase 2C in popular schools? I only qualify for phase 2C and all the schools within 1km of my place went for balloting last year. I’m still going to try anyway as I have no other option. ( other than unpopular schools more than 1km away, which all had places in 2c supp last year). Just want to know if any other parents are in the same predicament.
