Registration for P1 2021 openings for schools in Bedok.

Which school have or don't have parent volunteer program?

Thank you very much!

If you are registering in 2020, PV for any schools will be too late.

As per Davischew comments, too late for PV. Same goes for clan or GRL route.

Unless you have some relevant religious ties, you are down to Phase 2A2 (alumni) or Phase 2C.

Hello parents, I am currently within 1-2km of SJIJ. Based on my observation, it seems like for the previous years, <1km is a safe bet (pls correct me if i'm wrong!). Hence, I am pondering the option of securing a rental unit to boost my chances for SJIJ. Question: when do I have to execute this move (ie: timeline to reflect new address on NRIC bcos I understand that 30months starts from the day my son enrols into p1) and also whether it is a good move to even do so?


My other option would be to enrol under 2A1 for RMPS but I am hesitant due to the distance plus my husband's workplace is in Newton, so moving closer to Novena seems like a more feasible option.

Thank you so much for the advice.

Yes <1km is absolutely safe for SJIJ. Thus advisable to just move. If u don’t mind me saying, since your hubby’s workplace is in Newton, and your son will be at least 6 years in that area (and possibly +6 more years if he goes to SJI Secondary - it’s not far away from Novena!)...it makes more financial sense to buy instead of rent. If the price is right, that is.

Whether it’s a good move? Definitely. Your son will get more sleep, can walk to school, United Square & Goldhill Centre have all the enrichment classes you could want...there’s Novena Square nearby also for other shopping. I’m not a housing agent btw, just lived there for 3 years before.

The 30-month period starts from the date your son is enrolled into the school. Buffer a few weeks before that to change both your IC addresses. Technically it can be done within a day if you have the required paperwork (check up on that).

Assuming you are a SG citizen and your son is a SG citizen
Address has to be 30 months from start date of P1 registration process. This year the date was 3 July 2019 for kids entering P1 from 2 Jan 2020.

Hi all, need some advise here.


Kid is currently in Moe kindy. This year entry to P1 was very safe as the number of k2 are fewer than take up slots. However for k1, seems like the intake will be facing balloting next year.

Anyone faced such balloting before for moe kindy?

Will be moving away from the area when the kid turns p3. If really need to go through phase 2C, should I try for the same sch or new area sch?

Any idea if I am qualified to use the new area address? Can appeal? Cause it’s not within 2 years but 3 years.

Can the use of address be different at different phases?

Thanks in adv,
Mumkoh

Not all K1 / K2 will proceed to the attached primary school. Some will utilize Phase 1 / 2A1 / 2A2 for other schools. Apart for a very small handful of MK, none are located in popular primary school that faces balloting in earlier phases (ie before Phase 2C).

I don’t think your new address qualifies for Phase 2C and 2 years is already being very generous.

Thanks floppy!


Hopefully there would not be any surprises on balloting in early phases before phase 2C.

Keeping my fingers crossed.

My take is, as long as the MK is not Westwood, Horizon or Sengkang Green, there shouldn’t be any surprises before 2C.

Ok I’m going for one of the 3 you mentioned.
