      [quote=\"mummielee\"]Hi zac's mum, will we know if there'll be balloting at the end of the 2nd day of registration? or do we have to wait till the day of result?


      If u can, please remain in the registration room until 4.30pm closing time. The staff will announce: (i) which category will be balloting (ii) how many applicants in that category fighting for how many seats. Then u will know your odds. Then u go home to pray.

      Those who leave before 4.30pm, let’s say they need to rush off for sthg else. They will only know the answer to part (i) from MOE’s website when it is updated late in the evening same day. And they will never know the answer to (ii).

      I very kaypoh so I belong to the first type of parent.

      Will all schools do the same as in announced which category need to ballot after the 4.30pm closing time?[/quote]My school did. If they do not announce, you just go up to the staff and ask nicely lor. As an involved party, I believe it is a reasonable request to make.

        Just to add if you use 2B route to enter catholic schools, it is complusory that the child will need to attend cathhecism classes and attend masses in school.

              Registration for Phase 2B will start tomorrow! What do you think are the chances of balloting for distance category 1-2km for both ACS?

                There's a high chance that both ACS conduct balloting for <1km. But there's a slight possibility that ACSJ will still have balloting for 1-2km.

                  Agree!

                  To my astonished, this year ACSJ TUR at phase 2B suddenly jumped to the highest among past years. While ACSP looks quite normal, at least as expected.

                    It’s a good school. Most teachers are very d dictated. Some old guards aligned with previous P on her books are treated on fair keel.


                    Current teacher set tone aright now esp with punctuality. She’s steering curriculum towards kids learning values in action. Most parents applaud but not all kids like the tough discipline esp those always late & uncooperative in use of hp, etc. The previous P too lenient & boys saunter in after 7.30am always got away w/o being booked.

                    She’s steering parents fr too much mother-coodling or meddling.

                    I believe academic is impt but value system just as impt for devpt.

                      I agree that it's a good school with a good balance between academic and non-academic components. I heard it's better than ACSP nowadays.

                      Another plus point is that ACSJ only has primary school students, unlike ACSP which shares the compound with secondary school students.

                        Hi all, my boy is under 2B. Can I register either one ACS tmr and withdraw on the second day if I decided to go to the other ACS?
