Hi Parents,


Can share what is the difference/strength between these schools. I hope to enroll my child for P1 in 2011. Being the lowest priority group - Phase 2C, guess I have to be more hardworking to nail down a school to do parent volunteer.

1. Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road)
2. Anglo-Chinese School (Junior)
3. Anglo-Chinese School (Primary)

Thanks

Anyway what is the different between
Anglo- Chinese School(Junior) and Anglo-Chinese School(Primary)

Nothing much Silver, just based on which location is better for you, I guess.....

I was told ACSJ starts school at 8 am and their classrooms are airconed..

ACSJ claseerooms are only airconditioned for Pri 6, as for school, it starts like everyone else at 7 plus

Dear Parents.


I have noticed that vacancy left for phase 2B in ACSP was usually relatively low (26 in 2009, and 18 in 2008) and there was never a balloting being conducted. Thus, called up the school to clarify and was told that if the application received for the day matches the number of vacancy left, they will advise parents to head straight down to ACSJ for registration. Thus, I would like to know if there is any parents here who has any idea/experience on how to be able to get into the first few in the ‘queue’?

God Bless.

it’s not about the position in the queue but rather the vacancy vs registration ratio. If ACSP is full and everyone rushes over to ACSJ, then ACSJ may need balloting. So might as well remain in ACSP for balloting if the ratio is favourable. Ya?

Hi, Nebbermind.

Thank you for your info.

Cheers!

that being said, I think ACSP is usually more popular coz it had more classes way back in the 70s & 80s when it was located in Coleman St (10?) vs ACSJ in Barker Rd (4?) => more old boys.

during my time, we had class A to J, except for P6. They had some extra classes below the hall for those flunked PSLE. :oops:
