      [quote=Orb post_id=1922159 time=1563934279 user_id=25015]I don't think majority of parents took CCA into consideration when applying for primary school, only a handful.

      that's quite true!

      or perhaps it just need rebranding...seriously, 'Geylang' is just too nasty!

      Bringing this up just for fun, dont flame me ok.... If not appropriate, please let me know and i will delete.

      If re-brand to ACS (Geylang), u think got parents apply?[/quote]No.
      The secondary school is still not in the same league as MGS and ACSI.

      If you make GMSS an independent, IP, SAP and GEP school, and renamed it as Geylang Lorong 10 Secondary School or whatever, the enrollment for the primary school will confirm shoot through the roof.

Fairfield Primary is similar: its secondary school is not in the same league as MGS and ACSI. It is not independent or IP or SAP or GEP.

          So why is it waaaaayyy more popular than GMPS? I really don’t know.

            I am heartbroken. Nobody believed me that Geylang Methodist Primary is an acceptable bird in hand VS the one that flew away?[/quote]
            Group chat syndrome - FOMO. When everyone is like a race horse, they fail to see what are the real option.

            There are cases where parents presume that by putting in the application is an effort and at least they have done something. Real life cases.

            2B is gone, priority is gone.

            now back to 2C and tons of \"i stay 100m, 50m 10m, 1m away from school but why i cannot enrol\" comments

              FMSS COP:
              Express - Affiliated: 200-257
              Express - Non-affiliated: 242-249

              GMSS COP:
              Express - Affiliated: 196-231
              Express - Non-affiliated: 228-239

              Sorry. GMSS is also not in the same league as FMSS.

              If ACSI / MGS is playing in the Premier League, FMSS would be in the Championship and GMSS is currently League One.

                  I’m not running for any political office. Therefore, I can spare you the doublespeak and all that BS spiel about “every school, a good school”.

                    Anyway, 2B is over and 2C beckons. You dont get this issue in 2C. Probably oversubscribed even.

                      technically not wrong what.

                      If you consolidate all the 200~220 kids into 1 school, no matter how good the school is, it will still appear mediocre what.
