Hi, would like to know if both parents must fulfil the PV requirements, or just 1 will do?

Just one will do.

Some schools will allow both parents to take turns. Check directly with the school.

Hi,

I would like to ask if we are allowed to apply for parent volunteer in 2 schools?

Yes you can apply any number of schools.

Volunteer for 2 schools ? Unless you have so much free time or one of the spouse not working…is not easy…my wife and me did the volunteer work for a whole year…there are two categories - cat A and cat B - cat A is something you do regularly such as traffic warden…cat B is something you fight to get the opportunity…

Just focus PV on one school that you wish your child to enter. Both my wife and myself did the volunteer jobs assigned by the school…thankfully we got our child into the school after completing our PV.

Anyone has any PV experience with Bukit panjang primary or South View primary in recent years? Are there any restrictions on the distance, e.g. must be <1/ <2km? Do they allow parents to jointly contribute/ clock in hours?


TIA

Hi, my daughter was born in 2016 and I would like her to go to SCGS (she starts primary 1 in 2023). We are going to be moving within 1 km of the school, but wanted to increase our chances by being a parent volunteer. I know it’s pretty selective, wanted to leverage the collective wisdom to understand what they are looking for and how best to position ourselves. Thanks a lot!

Hi all, a newbie here. May I ask when’s the earliest a parent can register for PV for Rulang Primary School and Henry Park Primary School? Also, can a family (mum and dad) volunteer at two different schools concurrently? Appreciate your all’s help!

Usually when child is about N2, check with the school. Both parents can volunteer any schools provided they are accepted lah.
