I'm wondering what are my chances of getting in to Nan Chiau Primary if I'm staying 1-2km. Will be registering under Phrase 2B but am wondering what are the chances... Will i sure get in if i move to within 1km?

On a \"bad\" year (like Dragon and upcoming Horse, Goat), you won't stand a chance (ballot < 1km).
As snake year has one of the lowest birth rate, you would probably stand a very good chance of at least getting to ballot.

Thank you for the reply Just saw that NC already conducted balloting for dragon year babies staying within 1km.. meaning if i fall under dragon year... i wouldnt even stand a chance to ballot if i'm staying within 1km - 2km.... sigh ... so tough

There are more bto and condo coming up <1km so best not to risk your chance in 2B with 1-2km if u can.

[/quote]Totally agree.

Projects that were completed / completing include EC / condos like The Vales, Treasure Chest and Bellewaters, and many BTOs like Anchorvale whatever. Seriously, they will just pump up the demand for Nan Chiau such that \"good\" years will be far and few between.

Therefore I'm also caught in a position of should i move or not, we met quite a handful parents who stayed 1-2km too. Any parents applying for NC next year too to share your input?

If you want a chance to at least ballot, you will have to move. Otherwise, you can test your luck and hope next year demand isn’t that high. But if 2B demand exceed number of places < 1km, you are out and have blew your 2B chance away (unless it’s under GRL where you have other options).

Even in the best case scenario, it will be ballot < 2km. Under 2km, the school’s catchment includes EC / condos like Lush Acres, Riverbank and Rivertrees, as well as the newer BTOs in Fernvale (nearly the whole Sengkang West SMC). Don’t expect low number of applicants if < 2km comes into play.

Hi, Im staying in clementi having a few schs for p1 selection for my girl. Having few choices including my old sch. Appreciate if someone can enlighten me on the choices, n the chances of getting in. My Girl prefer a girl sch though.


Nan Hua - within 1km phase2C
Pei Tong (my pri sch) - within 1km phase2A
MGS - >2km PV applied
SCGS - >2km

Chances of MGS & SCGS? I do not know if i shld ever tink of it!!! :xedfingers:

Since your girl prefers a girls school, do try your best to grant her wish. I’m not sure what was your own experience at Pei Tong, but I heard some bad things about that school. It is especially unsafe for girls.

MGS and SCGS >2km whether got chance to ballot, varies year to year. I suggest you apply MGS phase 2B, if didn’t get in then apply SCGS phase 2C, if didn’t get in then apply Bukit Timah Pri phase 2CS (or Pei Tong if you really prefer nearer home).

DS will be 2020 intake, DD another 2yrs later. Do you mind sharing privately with me why Pei Tong is unsafe for girls? Intending to enroll my children into Clementi Pri or Pei Tong as < 1km away.

Hi need some advice


my boy is 4 years old and grandparents stay 1.5km from chongfu pri sch we stay at sengkang and considering moving over to stay with grandparents or remain at sengkang.

willing to do PV too. Need advise on how many hours of PV does chongfu pri need now.

Also if i fall under 2B would the distance affect chance of getting in as its within 1-2km.

Chongfu pv has to join n go thru Shhk.

Distance matters when there is a ballot.
You have to decide if moving over n get a place <1km to play safe or making a statutory declaration which will place you at 1-2km.
