All About Primary Schools' Balloting History

[CALYNSEA]

Hi all,


Anyway to see balloting history of primary school registration breakdown by distance?
I remember I used to be able to see. If not anyone have the breakdown for Raffles Girls Primary School?
What are the chances for SC staying within 1 km?

Thanks in advance!

Hello!


If I got a chance for phase 2b aitong ( 1-2km) Vs 2b Catholic high ( less than 1km)… for registration in year 2022… Which is a better chance? Or can I assume that aitong will have no slots for 1-2km in phase 2b.

Ai Tong probably no chance or low probability of 1-2Km. Catholic High definitely can ballot <1km.

Generally speaking, < 1km is always better than 1-2km as < 1km will get the first cut of the places. Therefore, you can expect at a minimum, a chance at balloting. 1-2km, on the other hand, risk no chance of balloting or balloting for limited places. That said, 2 years is a long time from now - it’s difficult to tell how things may change.

For CHS < 1km vs ATS 1-2km, it should really be a no-brainer. Pick the one with the higher distance priority, ie CHS. I reckon that your hesitation and pondering are due to a younger sibling who’s a girl, in which CHS sibling priority would not be applicable in future. If that’s the case, you will have to monitor the odds / number of applications to ATS before applying to CHS. If there’s a good opening, go for it.

By the way, I’ve seen you asking for sponsors In order to join SHHK. Please note that your application must be accepted by them before 30 June of this year in order to be eligible for 2020 registration. Note: it’s acceptance, not submission. Therefore, it’s best that you get it done before this month ends.

100% sure in for < 1 km, only if kid is SC
, for Phase 2C. Refer past 3 years (2019, 2018, 2017 P1 registration statistics, call up school to check)

If kid is PR, 2C < 1 km, useless !



As for 2B -
only if Rgps select u as a Parent Volunteer, otherwise zero chance to get in, unless enter by Grassroot venue

Hello everyone, I’m new here. Need some advice.


I applied for SCGPS PV last year but was unsuccessful. My girl’s P1 registration will be next year, for 2022 intake.

Given that we will need to shift house probably end of this year to be within 1km of school of choice, for P1 registration in July 2021, we are considering 2 options:

1) St Nicholas Primary
2) Singapore Chinese Girls’ Primary

Location wise, Thomson area is a better choice as it’s closer to the work place. We also grew up in Ang Mo Kio area so we are more familiar with Thomson.

May I ask - I will be trying for either school at Phase 2C. If I am unsuccessful at either one, which school will my girl be posted to - is it according to cluster or GRC? I tried searching for info on the MOE website but did not seem to find any info.

Looking at the stats, it seems like SCGPS is easier to get in, though still have to ballot at Phase 2C. I also heard that there are more kids being transferred in, due to parents migrating, etc (not sure if it’s true).

Any advice will be appreciated! Thank you

SCGPS has much higher chance <1km. Can consider Marymount Convent at phase 2CS if unable to get in at 2C
