All About Parent Volunteers (PV)

[Cc1702012]

Anyway is a good experience…for example i

Managed to get some PV work during Chinese New Year, Cultural day n during last year Nov19 Orientation day…so i know what to expect during this Nov school Orientation day. The school also allow continuous volunteering for parents who like to continue for those adhoc work…so that give parents opportunities to see how their children doing from time to time

By the way, i think it would be lucky if you can get a PV place within next one to two years…as now schools generally have limited slots for PV during this Covid-19 pandemic… good luck for SG50 babies parents

hi i m new here. My first post here. Do they choose the PV according to the parents occupation and educational qualifications? Do they ask for supporting documents? As i m a SAHM and i have lost some of my certs in the process of moving a couple of times. Anyone went for SCGS or RGPS PV and got admission? Need some help here. Panic mode on..

No they don’t choose based on educational qualifications. No certs needed.

Parent’s occupation is quite irrelevant unless you are offering some job-related service to the school. Sometimes schools just want someone who can commit to serve [U]during school hours[/U]. Or in the case of traffic wardens, before school hours. So make sure you have a spouse or alternative caregiver to watch the kids/send them to kindergarten while you do your duty.

Don’t know much about SCGS/RGPS PV.

Normally for those very highly balloted school they will really cap their PV intake

Actually, for most highly balloted schools, they don’t even have a PV scheme anymore.

[Cc1702012]

Yeah, some of those super highly balloted schools don’t offer PV scheme anymore…so it is important to find one that give u that opportunity, if that school is above the average national standard but not the best n most demanded…is better than nothing…especially given this year crazy super competitive p1 registration experience.

Maybe there’s some delay since situation changed. Better call them again.

I think you may have to prepare for a possibility that no PV will be offered

[Cc1702012]

Yup…schools might scrap or reduce PV tasks
