CHIJ St Nicholas Girls'

[frozenmum]

Hi, I’m a new member. Can I check if anyone knows whether balloting is required under Phase 2C within 1km for singapore citizens to CHIJ St Nicholas Girls School? Can’t find any info regarding this. Not sure what are the chances like and whether worth trying? Thanks!

Balloting is required for SC under 1km under 2C.

Roughly 2 applicants to 1 vacancy.

already Year 2021, Term 1

!

2021 P6 (parents & students born in 2009)’ neck very long, already waited for so many years liao !

so, what is our school’s new Affliation " AL " Cut off point ?


equivalent to 230 Tscore (in the past, up to Year 2020)

or

No more ?

Instead, become

very close to the official "Non-affliation " Cut-off-point 254

(mark-to-market the last exiting historical 2020 Psle cohort, born in 2008, Cut-off-point ),

then add back 1 or 2 Affliation points,

ie.
follow identical to what is happening currently, to the O-level L1R5 Affliation Cut-off-point, that is,

maximum give only 2 discount points, for Secondary 4 SNGS (O-level track) students who are affliated to Catholic Junior College (CJC) ?


254 Tscore :
is equivalent to around AL 8 points

Hi all wise parents,

Has there been any history in the P1 registration of Phase 2A1 having to ballot for 1-2 km? I am aware that every year the stats are different depending on the various factors

Thanks!

To add on,

Yes,
for these past years (2015, 2018, 2020), there was intense balloting competition at Phase 2A1 , for students (girls) who are SC living beyond 2 km.

ST report (eg.)

https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/education/primary-1-registration-4-schools-to-hold-ballot-for-parents-in-alumni


Who are these \"Phase 2A1\" mommies (parents) ?

a lot, plenty, since St Nick is a \"Full\" school. They could have graduated, studied previously from either St Nick (primary P1 to P6 PSLE or Secondary 1 to O-level) last time, several years ago.


Hence,
St Nick potential Phase 2A1 (Alumni) mommies whose daughters are SC staying more than 2 km, need to be mentally prepared that

in the event that say, unlucky, your daughter got balloted \" Out\" during Phase 2A1,
then have to be on standby,
continue to enrol your girl by subsequent Phase ( either 2A2 or 2B or 2C), in another primary school instead.


Question
Which are your possible \"stand-by\" schools ?

These \"standby\" schools can be :-

1) your spouse ex (former) \"co-ed\" primary school, or


2) yourself, own ex (former) \" Transfer-in\" primary school.

Example

Say, many years ago, you have managed to transfer in successfully into St Nick, from SAP schools like

\"Pei Chun\" or

\"Ai Tong\" or

\"Chong Fu\"

primary school before, back then in those days, at the end of your (P2 or P3 or P4) past education journey.


Then, please kindly ensure, it is important that

you do Not lose your ex (former) primary school's Report card, even if you have shifted house mean-while after your past PSLE graduation

Or


the ink printed out onto your past report card content did not smudge even though so many years have passed by, or maybe the black ink get stuck to the Report card plastic material until cannot see the content clearly anymore, through the passage of time,

since you did not graduate from there, therefore did not possess any Psle certificate from your ex (former) primary school.


Thus, Report card is your only means of verification & proof (evidence) during Primary 1 Registration time ,
if you wish to enrol your daughter back into your ex (former) primary school,
under subsequent Phase 2A2, should you fail in balloting unlucky, during alumni Phase 2A1 (St Nick).


3) under Phase 2B,
can be another CHIJ missionary related school, if your daughter is a Catholic, & are still interested in enrolment into an \"All-Girls\" primary school.

Eg.

can consider other same
CHIJ family related \" cousin \" schools :-

CHIJ (Kellock or Queen of Peace or Nativity or OLGC or Toa Payoh or Katong ) primary


4) under Phase 2C,
can enrol your daughter into another primary school nearby your house, as long as vacancies still remain.

I suggest you try to get ahold of the P1 spelling & Tingxie lists of the various schools you are comparing. Maybe PM the existing parents.

Recently I compared boys school, co-ed school & girls school (CHIJ TPY, to be specific), the disparity in what’s required is shocking. Standards increase in that order. SNGS could be far higher.

One thing to note and be mindful of when comparing such lists, especially tingxie, SNGS is a SAP school. Hence, they may demand a little bit more, especially in Chinese.

For ref. The above is taken from the back page of the Chinese textbook. These are the Chinese words that will be taught in every non-SAP school in Primary 1. Each new Chapter will be taught in roughly 1-2 weeks. Higher Chinese will have slightly more new words per chapter.

By K1-K2 age, most parents can assess whether their child will be able to handle such volumes of new info, at that speed.
