Follow the flow chart for specifics.

Receiving school will provide more info on a later date.

Received the school posting too. Glad to get our first choice, which is also the nearest school from my location.


In the GEP Guide for Parents 2021.pdf, one of the factors considered for posting of pupils is \"distance between the pupil's home and the GEP centre\".

The exact posting mechanics is a blackbox; no one knows for sure the exact sequence of steps. What if you prefer a school for their programme, but it isn't the nearest school and your child isn't already in the school at P3 or doesn't have a sibling in that school? What are your chances of getting that school? I'm curious.

With enough past data from parents, we can build a predictive model that gives the likelihood of being posted to school of a choice, based on the factors such as distance, student gender and mother tongue. This model will benefit other parents in future.

If you have submitted GEP choices for your child (be it this year or previous years) and you will like to help to contribute to the above effort by submitting data, please do so at https://yo-kelvin.web.app/ (there's a link to a google form) .

Thanks in advance!
