      Hihi


      May I know where can I find the balloting history for Phase 2C St Margaret Primary school? I have the recent years but do not have Year 2018 and before. I like to know if SCs are subjected to ballot before 2019. Thanks.

          2017 and earlier can be found here:

            Attached is the P1 registration data for St Margaret's. Essentially, it is the ratio of the
            number of applicants (application rate) over the number of places in that phase.
            Naturally anything below 1.0 would mean that the number of applicants is lesser than the number of places for that phase. NULL simply means that there is no more places for applicants in that phase.

            So it would seem that St Margaret is very open in Phase 2A1 and 2A2, and generally ok in Phase 2B as the highest it got was 0.8529 in 2013. But it almost always requires balloting in Phase 2C for all years except for 2019 and 2016. And if it escapes balloting in Phase 2C, it did require balloting in Phase 2CS in 2019.

              Thank you so much for the speedy replies!! I am a SC aiming for Phase 2C and I was hoping to see data to confirm my belief that SCs rarely need to ballot. Even in an exceptional year that SCs need to ballot, it is for those > 2km.


              The link is very useful and shed more light. I can see 2017 and before. The missing data point is now 2018, the dragon year.

                2018 data is available here (have to scroll down to Central and click on the image under 2018 to view):

                    Hi, I’d like to find out what are the chances of getting my boy to Catholic high for phase 2a and if we live 1-2km for this year’s registration.

                        Thank you! We are still weighing out to see if it make sense to rent to be within 1km.
