2017 P1 Registration Exercise for 2018 In-Take

[floppy]

Xia0hui:

We are both SG citizens and staying amk <1km from CHIJ St Nick and <2km from Anderson and Aitong, all P2C for the 3 choices. I have #2 son which we still can try the SHHK route for Aitong (N1 in 2017 so P1 in 2021)

If my girl gets in St Nicks, I have to do P1 registration stress all over again for my boy. So Anderson seems the best choice for both my kids (as Aitong for girl seems too slim now for P2C <2km)

For Anderson, what are the chances to get in P2C <2km? Or should I try St Nicks for my girl and Aitong P2B for my boy via SHHK?

Also if want to try Catholic High for my boy, what can I do to get in P2B beside PV?

You have a tricky situation. Apart from SNGS, none of the options that you have mentioned (i.e. Anderson and Ai Tong) are realistic choices. While Anderson would have been safe for under 2km last year (due to the lower birth rate), it's most likely to go back to the status quo (i.e. ballot within 1 km) this year. You can monitor the take up for Anderson and go for it if there's no balloting (but don't keep your hopes up too high). Ai Tong always ballot within 1km and I doubt that will change this year. SNGS will always be an available option because within 1km, you are guarantee a chance at the ballot. Given that most primary schools in Ang Mo Kio (except for Anderson, SNGS and Teck Ghee) have vacancies for P2Cs, my opinion is you should go for SNGS and pick another primary school (nearest) as back up.

As for your son, unless you are a member of SHHK already, you may be a little too late to try the SHHK route for Ai Tong. You will need at least 3-4 years of active membership in SHHK to stand a chance at getting that elusive recommendation. Given that his registration is 2020, time is not in your favour if you have not action on it. In addition, there will be balloting for Ai Tong in P2B and depending on the number of registration, you may or may not get a chance.

As for Catholic High, unless you are prepared to shift to within 1km, you definitely won't have a chance in P2B.

Red Swastika - likely 0% chance in P2C as ballot likely to happen for SC within 1km
Temasek Pri - likely to ballot for SC within 1km

Under Phase 2C -

SCs from both (Red Swastika (RSS) and Temasek) primary need to ballot less than 1 km.

As such, since your house had exceeded 1 km from RSS, u are not eligible for balloting to RSS. However, U can ballot for Temasek primary.

Hi parents out there, i am very new here… and also not familiar on the MOE system.


Am staying at hougang and my girl is born in May 2011. Aiming to go for Hougang Pri which is less than 1km.
Does anyone know if it is still on the safe side or would need to go for ballot to get into this school ? I believe we will be in phase 2C.

Based on historical data, you will have to go through balloting . It is better for you to have a backup school in mind, just in case.
