Guys.

Greetings
My daughter is going to P1 for 2019.

I don't have experience on this and would like to seek your assistance on the procedure and timeline.

Most importantly have I missed the registration T_T.

you can join the MOE Mailing list where you can receive email alert about the P1 registration updated information..

Registration for Phase 2C is usually in end July.

Hi, dragon year baby parent here, first child, finally got a bit kan cheong now…one question: for the reserve places for phase 2 , would they break it into 10 places for 2A, 5 places for 2b and so on? Or for instance all reserved places can be taken up in say phase 2A?

There will only be 20 seats reserved for 2B and another 20 for 2C. That's all. So even if the school has 300 seats, 260 can be taken by the end of 2A(2).

I see…thanks!

They are moving to centralized computerized balloting at MOE HQ instead of manual balloting.

But...they still refuse to give distance breakdown. So how will the parents know whether the child is participating in the balloting or not? Just sit and wait for snail mail notification after the computer is done?? Are they going to send SMS to the parent, like what is (I assume) happening for balloting results of Sec 1 posting?

Update: Channel News Asia article provides more details: “Parents will be notified of the ballot outcome via SMS on the day the registration result is announced. A letter will also be sent to them at the end of each phase of the registration exercise.”

for this year automated computerised balloting at phase 2A1 (if any), phase 2A2 (if any), phase 2B and phase 2C for hot, popular primary schools, the automated balloting will be held at MOE premises. Parents no need to attend balloting anymore, physically.


this computerised balloting is similar to the one come psle 2021 (kids born 2009), where students who happen to have the same AL score in the common pool, will face computerised balloting, when enter popular Secondary schools

Does that means parents can register at home or anywhere? I guess scan all the documents and attach online. Once successful, than show that original copy?

Online registration has been available for several years now, but for phase 2C and 2C(S) only. You can read all the nitty-gritty here: https://www.moe.gov.sg/admissions/primary-one-registration/internet-registration-for-phase-2c-and-2c-supplementary/primary-one-internet-system

Both parents need to login with their Singpass etc etc...

I see from your username that you are an RGPS alumni. If you’re using phase 2A1 or 2A2, you will still need to register physically at the school. If you’re not in Singapore, then appoint a proxy.

last time we have 260 to 280 students... easily \"rankable\" for allocation to schools

the same type of students, come 2021, will be a huge pool of 4-pointers...
good luck to the administering of the ballot... doesn't seem to be easy at all.
