Hello... I’m new here, reading this topics makes me feel very worried
My child is SG50 baby to be register for P1 2022. Our target school is Hong Wen... but we’re unsuccessful in getting into PV for HWS.
😞
Any parents from HWS here can advice what’s the next things we can do to be able to enrol into phase 2B?

No chance for 2B now. If GRL also too late. Just prepare to ballot for <1km in 2C

MUST make contingency plan A, B and C. Expect a fierce fight for SG50 baby.

When i mentioned good, its actually application of 1.87 times over available spots. in 2018, 2C was 4 times over subscribed. If you stay more than 1km, dont try planning for it in 2C.

For planning purposes, please start from 2A, parents school. then work downwards.
And please be prepared for 2Cs option and be happy with that backup. For example, are you okie with Bendemeer or Farrer Park as backup choice?, if not, what is the viable option?

I still wanted to ballot for <1km in 2C, then if didnt get in, we should be able to go for next school right?

[zac's mum]

Usually people who go for balloting at 2C <1km Hong Wen School, if balloted out will just go to Bendemeer Primary at 2CS. Don’t need to be so complicated think so much.

Indeed it was sooo much over subscribed for 2018, which makes us worried about it. Do you know why 2018 has so much subscribed to the school?

If balloting <1km in 2C still failed to get into the school, can we still change to registered 2Cs at other school? Not really keen on Bendemeer or Farrer Park ... looking may be around Toa Payoh or other area.

[zac's mum]

2018 registration was for Dragon babies. Therefore expect similar level of competition for SG50 babies.


You can apply any school you want in 2CS. But in Toa Payoh, Kheng Cheng may not have seats left in 2CS. Left with First Toa Payoh Primary, you want? Bendeemer still better.
