Just heard from my k2 daughter’s teacher that this batch -

Also, a number of parents did parent volunteer work at Rgps, applying under 2b. This type of stress is …

hi all, I am going to register my girl for2014 enrollment. I am in dilemma between NYPS and RGPS. We will be under 2C within 1km for both schools. Understand that we have better chance for RGPS vs NYPS, but my 2nd child is boy, if we register in RGPS, 2 years later, we have to ballot in NYPS again; we again worried about what if fail in balloting in NYPS? Thanks for advice!

Nanyang being a co-ed school -

is highly competitive, to get in !

Boys can only go nanyang co-Ed primary.
Parents with daughters also prefer nanyang -
because Nyps girls can enter into affliated nanyang girls high secondary, at 250 cut off point. In contrast, Rgps is not affliated to raffles girls’ secondary. Child need to score minimum cut off point at 26x +, before can get in. This is tough!

it is therefore easier to enter RGPS first, because un-affliated "All girls" school.

after your daughter enter RGPS already, then fill up "Transfer form" after 1 August (last day of Phase 2C) - queue up & seek transfer into Nanyang.
if not, wait until your son’s turn 2 years later, then try Nanyang again.

for now -
more important is make sure your daughter get in first, into either school.
right now, you not sure if you ballot for Nanyang - can get in or not.
