if using old method of balloting maybe is really luck.. but then again. now is computerised balloting.. no transparency leh.. so maybe tis yr \"such\" thing may happen and we will never know..

We all know that trust is at a deficit with this current Government... But seriously, I think there's still integrity in the system lah.
Unless... you are competing with some big shots for the place (but big shots won't be in Phase 2C leh )

Thanks guys for the online entertainment while we wait in suspense for 4.30pm lol.


In other news, I just saw someone try to drive and park his Ferrari in the school for registration. Security guard told him no special treatment given for red cars. Go park outside at the hawker center carpark

430pm...phase 2c registration will be over. looks like this weekend will be a stressful one waiting for results of balloting to be released on 8/8.

Floppy, I know you’re frustrated that parents are asking for breakdown of numbers of xxx or yyy schools — when we all know that historically there will be balloting for SC<1km. But many parents here can be quite clueless!

Actually, I have no problem with people asking for breakdown... e.g. SASS, SJIJ, etc as these are real touch and go cases.

For traditional (read: historical) popular schools, if you have to ask, you probably shouldn't be applying.

Besides there's a thread that's called READ ME FIRST, as well as a very well tabulated table: https://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/article/singapore-primary-1-registration-school-balloting-history/ as your go-to resource.

I agree!! Nowadays, seriously, just go google!

Haig Girls as at 11am (probably outdated by now)


93 vacancies and 100 applicants. Did not reveal breakdown by distance. Only stated PR 1-2km MAY need to ballot.

Also witnessed an ugly scene where a parent tried to pressure the staff into revealing the breakdown by distance. He said his wife is at the other school waiting to see if she should withdraw and added that as citizen they should have priority. My guess is that they are citizen >2km. The staff was still calm but added that she was just following guidelines. For their children, some parents really can show their ugly side.
