Connecting the dots:

Ngee Ann Pri (1-2km) & Tanjong Katong Pri (>2km) , what’s are the chances for SC pls? Will TKPS last till 2Cs ?

today is the 1st day of registration in person. at the end of today, MOE will upload figures.
schools which are only left with 20 or 30 at the end of 2B will face balloting for sure.

Hi, do you know when the registered numbers are reflected online tonight, does it accurately include the in-person PLUS online registration numbers? Cos I dont understand why MOE was unable to update last night when it's the 1st day for online registration yesterday.
Thanks!

PHASE 2C (as at 26 July 2018)

Parents, what are your thoughts on this?

1) Would you go for a confirmed space in 2c(1-2km) and then put on waitlist for your first choice school? Or
2) go for ballot in your first choice school(1-2km) and risk balloting out, then go for what’s left at 2c(s)?
Is it all left to probability of the ballot?

i'm not sure myself. someone mentioned MOE will update at the end of today...so I presume the numbers will be totalled up (ie including yesterday's online registration). it would be more advisable to find out what is available at the end of today since most parents would prefer to register in person.

seems like not many parents at Yishun area…


Just registered my son at Jiemin Pri… within 1-2km… hopefully can get a seat for my son… praying hard…
Was told that the result will be out by this Friday whether can get a seat or go for balloting… if balloting, result will be out by 8/8…
sleepless nights continue…

Thanks![/quote]Tonight’s numbers will include all online registrations made before 4.30pm cut-off time. Somebody got this answer from MOE in previous years.

this would depend on your risk appetite...do you want to feel secure & have peace of mind getting a vacancy , OR ballot and then register in 2CS if unsuccessful?

If you can live with 2CS schools for your child then go for balloting. Otherwise dont waste your 2C chance.

This is the strategy for 2C...
