Hi, i need some advice here. My girl is a SC and eligible to register in phase 2C only.

Using my current address, within 1km

ChongFu Pri School

Using my future address (bto), within 1km

Huamin Pri Sch
North view Pri Sch

Using my parent's address as caregiver, within 1km

Jiemin Pri Sch

All the above address, between 1-2km is Northland Pri Sch. I don't think we got chance to ballot for Northland. Anyone got advice on which one should i go for? Chongfu seems like a impossible option too.

North View sure in, and most convenient, must move in by end P2

Thanks for the reply! Indeed North View is more convenient but in my heart i feel like trying for Huamin as i heard alot of great review. In this case, do you think if i try for Huamin and if i didn't get, then i will have chance to get North View under 2CS?

what is the chance of PR who live outside 5km to apply ACSJunior in phase 2C? thanks

PR all distance in 2C no chance.

Of PR living within 2km and all family are Holding catholic baptism certificates. Is still no chance in 2B?

Some catholic schools are more popular and PRs have no chance. (SJI Junior, Catholic High, Maris Stella, CHIJ Toa Payoh, CHIJ St Nicholas, Holy Innocents). The rest seems ok.

Hi All,

For yr2020 P1 registration starting in July, this year registration is different due to COVID19.

Read on the MOE website

If you have secured a P1 place for your child in a previous registration phase, you will need to withdraw your place from the school before registering in another school. Unless you have withdrawn your place, MOE will not process any further online applications made for your child and your child will remain in the school that your child had earlier secured a place at. You are to ensure that the child has been successfully withdrawn before submitting another online application.

Any idea how to withdraw?

Thanks

From MOE website: You will need to send an email to the school your child has been admitted to, using the same email address provided in the application form to the school for withdrawal.

Thank for replying.

I am planning to register my DD (SC)

(7-Jul ) Phase2A registration - St Margaret (3rd choice)
(4-Aug) Phase2C - Within 1km : Pasir Ris Primary (1st choice) / Casuarina Primary School (2nd choice)

Q1.) which day do i need to submit withdrawal from St Margaret? assuming vacancies/chances are good for applying Pasir Ris Primary / Casuarina after Phase2B?

Q2.) Since withdrawal is via email, do i need wait for St Margaret's confirmation email saying withdrawal is successful? Since everything is via email, no idea when is St Margaret going to reply email.

Q3.) What are the chances of DD balloting for Pasir Ris Primary. Past history always more applicants than vacancies.

Q4.) What are the chances of DD balloting for Casuarina. Some years ballot, some years no ballot.

If that’s your plan, I don’t see why you should even register with SMPS. Going to be an unnecessary extra step and complicates matter.

Casuarina is definitely a shoo-in for SC < 1km.

Even if ballot also high chance. 2CS for North View might still have vacancies for balloting as well. Though all not guaranteed as this year we might not know the stats to switch our choices in time.

Casuarina is definitely a shoo-in for SC < 1km.

Pasir Ris Primary is not confirmed a shoo-in for SC < 1km?

Missus still prefer SMPS, as it is affliated to St Margaret Secondary. But we stay in Pasir Ris. Going to be tough for DD travelling to SMPS (6yrs) + secondary (4 yrs).

Hence, if you have decided that you want to join in the ballot for Pasir Ris (or if you want the safe option of Casurina), no need to complicate matters with registration / withdrawal for SMPS.
