Wow, so no way of knowing. That just decreases my appetite for risk.
There is no 'default' school. It all depends on which schools have places left after Phase 2CS.floppy\" post_id=\"2035084\" time=\"1629432586\" user_id=\"97579:
[quote=joybleu post_id=2035079 time=1629431324 user_id=66403]Hi,
any idea what is the default school a child living in Serangoon will be posted to, if he/she gets balloted out of 2CS?
Serangoon is a big place. For the moment, seems like Zhonghua is available for Serangoon planning area but the child could also be posted to Xinghua (Hougang) or Yio Chu Kang (Hougang) or Townsville (Ang Mo Kio) or Seng Kang (doh!). It's due to the randomness of the posting (or an algorithm that we may not fully understand) that most people would suggest not to test the system if you could avoid the ballot.
Thank you![/quote]I think if you are like living next to Zhonghua, it is more than likely that MOE will post your child there if you didn’t succeed in the ballot. If you are living somewhere else, then there’s really no way of telling. -
Hello,
Can I check if i joined the as volunteers for CC in July 2021. Will it be too late for it? Or I can still give it a try?

If you are looking at 2022 or 2023 registration for the following year, you are too late.

<1km includes The Peak@TPY and Toa Payoh Crest where the new Creamier shop is. Plenty of families with kids. Those residents may have thought CHIJ TPY was too risky, or they have boys.[/quote]Marymount Convent Schoolfloppy\" post_id=\"2034172\" time=\"1628770205\" user_id=\"97579:
I think your friend’s chance should be good for MCS < 2km in Phase 2CS. I think all SC should be safe but hard to be certain for those > 2km.[quote=\"zac's mum\" post_id=2034170 time=1628769297 user_id=53606]
Friend was at 1-2km and lost the chance.
What do u think of the chances at MCS for 2CS? Assuming 1-2km also.
...[/quote]
Available vacancies in Phase 2C Supplementary 74
Number of applicants 92
Balloting will be conducted for Singapore Citizen children residing outside 2km of the school.
Hope your friend has give it a go. No ballot for SC < 2km

Some parents have already decided to stay out of the game, for the sake of their own sanity, as well as their kids’.

One of them is a 35-year-old lawyer who, despite having secured a place for her daughter at Rosyth under Phase 2A1 in July, made the unconventional decision to enrol her child at Marymount Convent instead.
Ms Ang, who declined to give her full name, said that Rosyth, one of the most competitive schools to get in, was a “natural choice” as they live within 1km of it and she was an alumni.
Balloting took place even at Phase 2A1 at Rosyth School this year.
There was also the pressure from family and friends who gushed about how it is a good school and that she would be “foolish to give it up”.
But Ms Ang ultimately withdrew with her child’s interest in mind.
She described her child as a bright and perfectionist girl who had not reacted well to a highly academic environment in preschool. Marymount Convent would be a better fit for her, said Ms Ang.
“She is already very hard on herself. I want an environment where she is not going to focus on one benchmark to measure herself by,” said Ms Ang.
what a gem of a mother -
Being an alumnus, she probably knows how the culture is like (and lived through it, growing up).
I have friends who are alumni of NYPS, and ATS, who decided their alma mater was not a good fit for their sons. They chose to enrol to all-boys school, or homeschool.
