It will update 19th and 20th at night.

Ohh thanks!

What is the difference between P1-IS vs the online form method? If so, then I will probably wait till 4:30 Friday then apply to see which one to avoid ballot

If we fail phase 2cs, can we still appeal and pick another choice school if the one posted for us is not to our liking?

Wait till last day then apply online form, not much difference. Try to call the school before application and see if they can reveal anything. Cannot apply at 4:30 lah, give more buffer.

No appeal if fail 2CS, MOE will post nearest. You can try contact your school of choice to ask for transfer procedures.[/quote]Hi I am new here too and read about this and wish to ride on a question. So if online form not much difference p1-IS, it is possible to maximise the data thurs night before exercising on Friday? But how accurate would it be?

Even if the numbers hit high, it doesn't stop anyone from moving on final day. Parents adopting a wait and see though.

Thanks @Lexy!

Would you know (or if anyone here knows) if I can still make ammendments to my p1-is application on Thursday night after the updated data surface OR if I can make another application hoping MOE will take my online form application as my latest application?

From FAQ

Can I make amendments after I have submitted my registration online on the Primary One Internet System (P1-IS)?
Answer:
If you have submitted your online application and wish to make an amendment of school choice during the same phase, you will need to withdraw your child on P1-IS. Thereafter, you may submit a new online application form within the same phase. The online form will be accessible during the respective registration phase.

In these situations, MOE will take your latest online application submitted during the stipulated registration period of the same registration phase.

We encourage all parents registering their child for the P1 registration exercise to discuss well ahead and decide on their primary school of choice before submitting the online registration. This is to avoid the need to make any withdrawals or amendments which may lead to delays or missing a registration phase and as a result not getting the school of your choice for your child.

Can I re-register for another school online after I have withdrawn my registration online using P1-IS?
Answer:
After withdrawing your child on P1-IS, you may submit a new online application form within the same phase. The online form will be accessible during the respective registration phase.

In these situations, MOE will take your latest online application submitted during the stipulated registration period of the same registration phase.

We encourage all parents registering their child for the P1 registration exercise to discuss well ahead and decide on their primary school of choice before submitting the online registration.

Hi All,

I understand that we can request for a place in the waiting list after securing a place in Phase 2CS.

Is it possible to apply for a place in the waiting list for a school we did not apply during Phase 2C?

[zac's mum]

You can waitlist at any school you want, even if u didn’t apply before. The main issue is the waiting list can be very long at popular schools. U may end up waiting several years that’s all.

1. How does the waitlist work? Assuming ABC Is a Singapore citizen, lives outside 2km and is the first person on the waitlist for P1 at Queenstown primary school, will ABC get the next available spot if a student in P1 withdraws? If another student, PQR is also Singapore citizen within 1km but is the second person on the waitlist, will PQR have priority over ABC since PQR lives nearer to the school?

2. What if another student XYZ whose parent is in the alumni association or was a parent volunteer but got balloted out in the respective earlier phase 2A and 2B, and now XYZ is 3rd person on the school’s waitlist, does XYZ get priority over ABC and PQR?

Anyone have insights? :?: :?
