      Anyone know 2018 Fern green Primary school under 2cs, balloting for kids less than 1km?
      Yes. My estate a few targeting fgps for 2cs.[/quote]
      I think given that there are only 7 seats, balloting within 1km is almost a guaranteed.

        Hi experts, can you withdraw the seat secured in 2c and go for another school in 2cs? Admission not secured on priority.

        Thanks

          Hi

          We are left with the following options for 2CS and all 3 schools are in the 1-2 km range.
          1. Sembawang Primary - 16
          2. Wellington Primary - 39
          3. Woodlands Ring Primary - 34

          Accessibility wise, all 3 schools are almost the same. Which of these schools has a good holistic approach, as well as a healthy academic environment? Which one should we go for? Thanks.
          Frankly speaking, in Phase 2CS, those are not exactly the questions that you should be concerned about. At this point, it's probably better to just drink the kool-aid and believe in 'every school, a good school'.

          Go for the one that's guaranteed (or more or less guaranteed) you a place. You risk SC < 1km pushing you out, or pushing you into a ballot situation for Sembawang, while the other 2 are probably safe. I would keep an eye on Wellington and Woodlands Ring and go for them if the coast is clear.

            You can withdraw a seat in Phase 1, 2A1, 2A2, 2B or 2C to go for another school in Phase 2CS.
            BUT seriously, why the f*** would you do that?! :scratchhead:

              Thank you, for your opinion. That's true, at this stage, it's more about survival than choice. 😓
              Just that as a worried parent, if I have a choice, I would like to make an informed decision within the limitations.

              I would be glad if some of the experts/parents could let me know reviews of any of these 3 schools.
              1. Sembawang Primary
              2. Wellington Primary
              3. Woodlands Ring Primary

                    Just asked as the neighbourhood school has plenty of seats left.[/quote]So u can sit it out. After 2CS, if you really still wish to transfer to this school with plenty of vacancies, then u can transfer.

                      Just asked as the neighbourhood school has plenty of seats left.[/quote]It really does not make sense. Why didn’t you apply to the neighborhood school in 2C then? Anyway, if it’s really more convenient for u logistically, u are definitely free to withdraw and go to the 2CS school.

                      There will be one pair of grateful parents on the waitlist who will be thankful to you for giving up the seat for their child.

                        3. Woodlands Ring Primary[/quote]My niece graduated from Wellington Primary with so-so PSLE results. Went to a so-so secondary school. Neither good nor bad. It is a regular neighborhood school. The other two schools are quite similar I’m sure. They provide an adequate education and she turned out fine as a person.

                        Just go to the one with the most number of vacancies. You don’t want to risk falling into balloting since you’re 1-2km.
