For hokkien clan members, how long did the clan took to get back to you after you submitted your membership application and how did they inform you?

Hello if i would like to enrol my son into KCPPS, do i need to join any church to get into Phase 2B as both my hubby and I are christians? Otherwise we will be in phase 2c and living >2km away from the school

Hi parents, do you know if the parent is a member of a methodist church but child is not, are we still eligible for phrase 2B?


Also what are the chances of getting into MGS and Fairfield primary via phrase 2B?

Its almost 200% impossible to enter into MGS even if you are in Phase 2B within 1km. Been there, done that.

Impossible is 100% incorrect. Given that, in the worst case scenario, there will still be 20 places remaining in Phase 2B, it's just a matter of luck to get in. Thus, it's possible, but odds aren't that good, that's all.

If you are a Methodist living <1km of MGS, there’s no other school that you can apply to in phase 2B anyway. Everyone in such situation will try the ballot for those (minimum) 20 places. Unless you want a confirmed place - then u can apply straight to Geylang Methodist Primary. No competition there at 2B.

hello, would like to know if we are under phase 2B and looking at Maris Stella but is out of 2km. What r the chances of us entering the school?


I think we have no chance at Catholic High under 2B if we are staying 1km to 2km right?

Phase 2B usually has balloting for SCs >2km for Maris Stella.

And balloting for SCs <1km for Catholic High.

Thanks Zac’s mum! Would you know what are the chances for Maris Stella if distance is greater than 2km?
