I believe you also have the number of vacancy for this year. -

May i know... on the third day, how do we monitor the status since the system is not updated live? Thanks
You have 2 options - call the school and ask them politely for the breakdown by distance/SC for applications. Or if they are entertaining your phone calls, go down to the school and patiently ask the admin staff for an update. Most schools will not refuse you. You can tell them you need to know as you will withdraw your child is there is chance of ballot or apply for a place if your chances of escaping ballot is good. -

[quote=\"Technospaz\"]Does anyone know if we can retract an application made for P1 2C after it's been submitted?
Yes, you can withdraw. but need some documents at both the place of withdrawal and need to go over to the other school with the original set of documents to register.
this process is not for the faint-hearted.
Your chance for 1-2km NAPS looks good at the moment. Choose your back up school and also choose the strategy (1. register first then withdraw when you want to escape the balloting or 2. wait until 3rd day afternoon before you make the application.)
You may like to try to find out the numbers for the balloting in NAPS in 2013 (how many applicants in 1-2km ballot for how many slots in 2C). That will give you a good gauge of how is it like if 1-2km need balloting.[/quote]You may need physical presence at the school you already registered and also the other school of choice so that you can make informed decision. It can be very manual

There is also another option. If parents who have called the school provide an update of breakdown by numbers for the respective schools on this forum, then the rest of us will not need to call. It all depends if the parents want to share the information.
I hope parents who call can help other parents by updating the results. -
grapevine:
Does anyone understand kiasu chiefs' 2C analysis? Does -30 change in vacancies mean that that particular school will have less places in 2C or more applications this year? Bukit Timah primary has -30 Vacancies, but usually this school has more than sufficient places for phase 2C.
Sorry. I have changed the column label to better reflect what it means. The last column refers to the change in total vacancies granted to the school by MOE this year, vs last year. So -30 means that the school actually lost 30 places upfront, versus 2015. Phase 2C will be most affected by the change, and hence competition may actually heat up even if demand remains the same.
By the way, Bukit Timah Primary did not lose 30 places. You probably misread the row. It was West View Primary that did. -

It is apple to apple as much as the School and the Phase. And we did address the fact that the birth rate is one of the lowest in the last 12 years in our earlier analyses, so naturally, demand will be lower across most schools. But the more popular schools may be affected by the \"got-space-so-must-piah\" effect. Schools which parents normally avoid due to historically intense competition may actually attract the interest of more parents, whereas other less popular schools may see a decrease in their registrants.but one thing i am not sure is ... are we comparing apple with apple
in 2009 the birth rate was 39570 and in 2010 it was 37967 ... so when working out the prediction , did the 2009 figures being adjusted to mirror the birth rate of 2010
It is best to keep monitoring the take up rate across the 1st 2 days to get a more accurate picture for the schools you are targeting. -

Why not just register on the last day? I know a lot of parents will probably frown on this advice, but it is better than to go through the trouble of having to withdraw from one school and register again in another. -
ruhuasee:
The MOE page is only updated at the end of each day, usually between 7pm-8pm, and could be as late as 11pm on the last day. Just monitor this thread and ask about the status. Some kind soul will help you.https://www.moe.gov.sg/admissions/prima ... urong-East
