2019 P1 Registration Exercise for 2020 In-take

[lot286]

Thanks for your thoughts. Looks like there is really no backup plan. It’s all in, one shot chance at 2c for either RMPS or aps. If fail and no 2cs available Ard my area I wonder what will happen?.will be funny if Moe finds a place for my kid say in…Jurong or punggol?

Gan Eng Seng Primary will have seats at 2CS. Near enough. Slightly further away are Blangah Rise Primary & Cantonment Primary, also plenty of seats at 2CS. Don’t scare yourself about Jurong or Punggol so far.

i just took a quick look at
https://beta.moe.gov.sg/primary/p1-registration/vacancies-and-balloting/
and it is currently showing vacancies for phase 2A(1). Where can i see places taken up for Phase 1?

It appears that MOE has erased all the previous data for Phase 1 since it’s now over. Looks like they intend to display only the current phase.

Irritating to the max & super user-unfriendly + parent-unfriendly, their new website. But that’s my own opinion.

So people who are monitoring/counting down, better to screenshot the relevant pages at the end of each phase. Keep your own Excel sheet of numbers for those schools you’re interested in.

making us like race horse (only can look straight and bash through) [/quote]There are sites like these https://just2me.com/sgprimary/2019/all/ tracking. Hopefully they continue to host these numbers beyond this year.

hello,


is it really not possible to know the ‘live’ number of people who have applied versus what’s available during the P stages?

Will the relevant schools know?

imagine the phase is 1 week long and half way through the week all the available slots have already been applied and taken - this number should be published immediately so parents can target another school?

hi, the school will have the number. They have no obligation to disclose the number but try to ask nicely from the school.

The registration is only open for 1/2/3 days, depending on the registration phase, it's not a week long. MOE will update the number of applicant on their website at the end of each registration day.

Hi parents, asking for my neighbour. We’re within 1-2km of the following schools:


CHIJ Toa Payoh
Kheng Cheng
Pei Chun
And within 1km for Hong Wen

Which school will have the best odds for Phase 2C SC? My neighbour is enrolling her girl. We were discussing Hong Wen but it is so terribly oversubscribed every single year that we don’t feel there’s a good chance even >1km, also plus the fact that it’s co-ed. As for schools outside of 2km, she’s considering:

St Margaret (the temp location is not an issue)
RGPS

No prior affiliation. Not sure how to advise her.

Edited: To fix typo.

Anyone else realise some of the schools numbers doesn’t tally with phase 1 remaining numbers?

Any examples?

Given the change in format from MOE, I also adopt a difference approach, I will only highlight the worse off situation. Using my eye power :skeptical: , I listed down some schools with higher take up (either due to drop in intake or increase applicants) as compared to last year - dragon year.


Temasek (Increased risk in 2A2, 2B and 2C)
Catholic high (Increased risk in 2A1, 2B, 2C) but likely to remain same zone risk
Keming (2C but with lower take up on Princess Elizebeth and St anthony, may not be worse off than last year)
Alexandra (2C but lower in Radin mas and Zhangde may help)
Bukit Panjang (2C)
West Spring (2C)
Pei Hwa (2A2, 2B 2C)
River Valley (2C)
Fuhua (2Cs)
Shuqun (2C but overall zone dropped)
Punggol Cove and Punggol Green (2C)
Fairfield (2B, 2C)
Queenstown (2C)
Fern green (2C)
CHIJ OLGC (2C)
Innova (2C)
Huamin (2C)
Peiying (2Cs)
Yishun (2Cs)
