This is one main concern I have about the waiting strategy. So fun to be a kiasu parent, at every stage, sure got something to worry about.

Aiyoh... so malu! I feel like I am a kan cheong spider and everyone else is so cool. Actually, after coming into this site, I feel so bad that I have not done enough for my son as compare to other parents. That's why I hope at least he get into a good school.

Don't be malu. I only started looking when DS1 was in K1...and that is considered fairly late. Know of pp who start planning when child is 1 y/o....that one I applaud. :!:

Come end of day, I really believe that what turns out well is for the best. Good school, bad school - parents are most important in a child's life. Nothing to regret - life is too precious to be always looking back and saying I could have done better.

By coming to ksp and learning about all these, i think you are already a very good parent. I know of folks who are clueless and am amazed at how satisfied they are with their self-gained knowledge (which is not correct).

Hi optimus,

I wrote into the school when son was 4 to be a PV...but was rejected. We couldn't do anything for the next two years but was still determined to put son in the school under Phase 2C since we stay within 1km.

Regardless of what school parents put their kids in, the important thing after that is to support the child mentally and physically (coaching them in studies).

hi


will the officer know how many applicants within 1km?

TIA!

optimus

i am going to take half day leave on that day…

Usual practise is the number of applicants breakdown by distance is posted outside the registration room. This would be periodically updated.

wow great!!!!!!!

btw, the registration room is in the school we want to register right? sorry for asking stupid question...

i am aiming two schools, can i register one school first and if last hour, <1km required balloting, can i quickly withdraw and ask my hubby (standby in another school) to register in another school?

many thanks!

Yes you can always do that.Just station 1 parent do withdrawal & the other 1 parent do submission.

[osakachan]

You don't need the original NRIC to withdraw.
