They can try to be helpful by giving a little stats, no fakenews involved here. Then it's up to parents to decide on the risk.

Easy for you to say lah...
Have you ever worked in a call centre?

yes i did[/quote]You would have seen the number of replies that says \"call the school\". And you would observe the number of helpful parents that really did \"call the school\".

Given that you have worked in a call centre (I used to manage one), you will understand that the admin is NOT a call centre. Every minute that they spend answering your call, put you on hold, check the stats, etc is a minute taken away from doing something useful, like making themselves a cup of coffee. If they tell you the stats (82 for 108 places), they will also know that you will be following up with \"Does this number includes online registration? How many SC? How many under 1km, 1-2km, > 2km? How many more people in the queue? etc\" Perhaps, unfortunately so, the reality for schools that are at the edge of battlefield are also the ones most likely to be flooded by calls. Thus, do the admin a favour. Don't call them. If you want to know, \"just... come\".

Yes true. Plus the admin is mostly in the general office and registration could be at another room. They might not have the real time accurate figures too. If parents are so concern about this important event in their life, they should make the efforts and be on-site for the latest update.

Thought you already know the answer (or the question had already been answered before).

Go to onemap.sg and use \"find schools near a building\" function. Pick any of the Matilda projects, or Punggol Opal, or Punggol Topaz. Take a look at the options available to the people living there.

Now, pick another project within 1km of MTS (anyone will do). Take a look at the options available to the people living there. You will get your answer.

If Valour didn't take away some heat, Punggol Green numbers would even be higher because those living in parts of Maltida / Sumang would have no where else to go.

Did RGS and SMPS show the real-time breakdown numbers at school yesterday afternoon?

Only they didn’t want to tell numbers by phone?

I dont think any school would want to get themselves into trouble with so called \"real time\" information publication because if there is a mistake or delay in updating information, the school will become answerable to parents.
