Hi All, am new here.
I am a ATS alumni and considering if I should pay for the $500 membership.

I am currently staying outside 2km.
If i pay for the membership and qualify for phase 2A1, will my distance of outside 2km be considered?
Is membership vintage considered during the 2A1 process as well?

Also, is SHHK member better if I am also considering nan chiau pri for my boy?

Thanks all in advance!

For ATS alumni:
Membership vintage - not considered.
Membership volunteering - not required.
Distance is a consideration at every phase. Notwithstanding, there has never been a ballot for Phase 2A1. Phase 2A2 has balloted a few times for > 2km. Therefore, saving $500 vs risk of balloting is something you would have to think about. Note: you have to sign up as a member at least 1 year before registration.

For SHHK, you can only pick one school and can only register in Phase 2B. For NCPS, you have to be living within 1km of the school. You will have to sign up as a member as least 2 years before your P1 registration. In addition, you have to contribute 80hours of PV time as well as keep up with your SHHK membership dues. After all that, it’s still not a guaranteed place because you have to ballot with the rest of the < 1km applicants. That said, it’s better than being in Phase 2C

Hi, like to check if I am within 1km from ATS, is it safe in 2B or 2C? Will there be balloting at 2B or 2C? Is there a page where I could find this data? Thank you in advance!

Confirmed guaranteed chopped... ballot for Phase 2C.
Depending on year and your luck, but it should be 60% to 80% chance of a ballot in Phase 2B.

Thank you! Yes, understand that there will be balloting. But not sure if its balloting for <1km? for <1km are all in and only balloting for >2km.

Phase 2C - 100% will ballot for SC < 1km
Phase 2B - definitely ballot for SC - usually for < 1km but 1-2km and > 2km are not uncommon. It depends on how many had fulfilled SHHK requirements (membership of 2 years before registration, 80 volunteering hours). Mind you, SHHK fees of $720 for the first 5-years term can be off-putting for some people if it only guarantees a chance of balloting.

Thank you! was looking for something like this. But is this actual data? Or base on historical and data analysis information? Saw that this year's 2B is slightly over and balloting required. But balloting is for all? I hope my understanding is correct. <1km will fill up the spaces first, thereafter 1-2km. Anything above 2km and if applicants is more than spaces available, a ballot will be needed for these above 2km batch.

So far, where did MOE allocate if fail to get in at 2C? Ang mo Kio Primary?

Yes, am SC. so for 2B, its ballot for <1km if i understand correctly.
For 2C, confirm plus guranteed will be ballot <2Km. If more than 2km, no need to think!

Any idea where will the posting be if fail to get in at 2C?
