2018 P1 registration exercise for 2019 intake

Father is a foreigner is irrelevant.


If the kid got a place in 2a1, he/she must be a SC or PR.

Rich or not, SC cannot Suka suka apply international schools. (Correct me if I am mistaken. )

Because of the compulsory education act.

Not girls school. She is alumni but the father is foreigner I’m not sure if that affect. Anyway they can afford private if needed.

Yes. SC can't send kids to Int'l Sch suka suka. I used to work with this company boss know how to create perceived incentive for top executives - post them officially into subsi companies (I've no idea if they're just shell companies, but they get 're-posted' back within 2 mths (done during school holidays) & applied for returning kids to Int'l Schs in Spore. These few executives super-overbearing & boasted abt their privileges.

I believe this is only right as SC given a lot of subsidied education which govt poured a lot of resources into. Imagine every parent go beg, borrow or steal to put a-boy/a-girl to IS, then 2 problems arises :-

1. Wasted resources in Spore schools & teachers twiddling fingers waiting for enuf students to fill classes up

2. Create an inequitable society of obvious haves & have nots.

Prepping for 2CS just in case the balloting goes south for Yu Neng (SC < 1KM). Appreciate any thoughts on the following schools. Thanks folks! :xedfingers:


- Bedok Green (< 1KM)
- Damai (1-2KM)
- Telok Kurau (> 2KM)
- Angsana (> 2KM)

Strategy for 2CS cannot choose liao. go for confirm in. In your case, Bedok Green.

Hi..anyone got a breakdown of Haig Girls Primary? I heard they have a history of having high PR registrants. Thanks.

I went to the school this morning and they were not giving the breakdown. However, I pushed a little and they said they \"may\" have balloting for PRs 1-2km but couldn't be sure (?!). I rang back at midday and it was a similar message, with slightly more registrations. But at 4pm when I rang, the lady on the phone said it was looking like balloting for SC >2kms. The message seemed to change depending on who you spoke to. It all seemed very imprecise and vague, which was frustrating. I'll be interested to see the actual breakdown when it's released. (We are PRs under 2km and decided not to risk our 2C choice and went for a safer choice instead.)

Thanks to all. Now I wonder if anyone knowledgeable can produce some ranking of leftover ph2cs schools in order of reputation? Would be useful for all members.

Dragon year phase 2C(S) will also be very competitive hor.

Your best choice for 2C(S) is your nearest school. Within 1km if available.

No sense applying for a “reputable” 2C(S) school at the other end of the island from your house.

even with the most knowledge, it will most certainly cannot satisfy everyone's need.
wouldnt it be more relevant for one to choose the schools while they are still available in 2C?

Queenstown pri is a big surprise! Last few years still have places for 2CS. But this yr, oversubscribed by more then +30. I also heard good word of mouth abt that school. It has redeemed itself. We need more success stories like Queenstown pri. Those schs that pple shunned but now gained recognition, so that all schs will be more "balance" in numbers.

This means many people who are sc signed up in the afternoon. This is common.
