Thank you both for your prompt response.

@floppy, I agree with you, its really nothing much for PR to consider.
@Lexy, thank you for your patience and your objective analysis.

Hi experts, as TKPS is likely to go into ballot for SC>2km, I am exploring Cantonment Primary and St Stephens as my backup in 2CS. Any views on how the schools are? TIA.

I would just go for the nearer one + affiliation. I guess the choice is clear.

Thanks for your views.

Provided that this is your only child or all your other children come with that thing dangling in between the legs.

Otherwise, Cantonment Primary is a better option.[/quote]Thanks for your views.

Three more minutes. Clock is ticking. Hope u have all decided and submitted your applications!

[Lexy]

Times up! What’s done is done, cannot be undone. Relax and wait out.


For those who has the breakdown and willing to share, please share.

For those who are not willing to share or don’t know the number, ignorance is a bliss!

Let’s wait for the official numbers on 12 August.

Hi, if under 2C vacancies left 100, the total applicants 120 and its stated need to ballot for SC within 1km, does that means 120 applicants are within 1km? Or it might not be 120? Even 101 applicants also need to ballot right? If thats the case, will school reveal the exact numbers of applicants within 1km that need to ballot?

It might not be. It depends on the schools whether they want to reveal the breakdown.

No

Doesnt mean that all 120 applicants are SC less than 1 km, because

this year lacked info transparency,

hence, amongst these 120 applicants, there could be K2 children staying between 1 to 2 km, or more than 2 km trapped inside, their parents do not realize that balloting actually took place within 1 km.

====================

Your question, if there are 100 vacancies, assuming that balloting occurred within 1 km for SC, and there are 101 applicants, that depend.

1) if the 101th applicant is also an SC less than 1 km, then Yes, enter into balloting. One unlucky kid will be balloted out.

But

2) if the 101th applicant is a PR, then No balloting is required, because

all the 100 SC staying less than 1 km, match the 100 vacancies perfectly, hence do not need to ballot. All the 100 SC got enrolled into the school, successfully. The PR, is out
