Yes, I was thinking along that line too!
Don't you wish there is a web service where you just put in your AL score and your address and up pops your 6 nearest secondary schools that you can apply to?
It doesn't seem to be so difficult to build.
Input home and/or office address/AL/Higher Chinese/SAP or non-sap/co-ed or no/any special CCA. -

I suppose it's because secondary schools are not tied to distance from home, so even if the school is in timbuktu land, people will still go for it. But still, I think this is a good service to get that initial feel.

On a higher level, consider also if IP-ALevels or IP-IB is more suitable for your child, if SAP or non-SAP is more conducive for your child’s learning.
This year, ESiS eligibility is AL5, foreign language eligibility AL8. Likely means that AL4/5 okay for RI/RGS, AL8 or less okay for IP. -

Ya lor. Haha Timbuktu. Little do they know that they have to travel there for 6 years… and when parents run out of gas after 1-2 years, the teens will have to manage that traveling themselves.

I think Straits Times has some such interactive tool (or was that for P1 registration?) but it was a lousy one cos the recommendations were not quite the best.

Maybe KSP can build a better one! -

On the other hand, I have 4 direct buses to SJI, which is only 18 min away including walking (2 bus stops’ journey). But it is zoned under Novena by MOE.
