Hi everyone! We have just moved to <1km of RGPS, and wonder if <1km is almost guaranteed a slot, do we have a group chat for next year RGPS P1 girls yet? If yes, I will like to join. Good luck everyone! it's finally started.

RGPS parents chat group, go by individual P1 class. So, when is the best time, to join a chat group ?

only \" AFTER \"
our school have informed u by an email, officially :-
which 2023 P1 class, your daughter has been assigned to.

And when is that, going to be ?

The school's official email will be sent out to All K2 successfully enrolled pupils admitted into school (RGPS), in November 2022.

Hi! Other than a statistical blip in 2020 when SCs under 1km had to ballot for places in Phase 2C, RGPS looks like a shoo-in for SCs under 1km! It has otherwise never balloted for this group of homeowners. Good luck!

Under Phase \"2C\" :-

this is true only,
for K2 girls (SC), living less than 1 km.

If you are a PR, living less than 1 km from RGPS, Sorry, no chance, under 2C

Because

Balloting for SCs, will take place.

=============================
But if you are a PR, living less than 1 km, and applying under Phase 2B, either as a PV or join Grassroot, not under 2C, Yes, u may stand a chance.

Well, it should be comforting for people that if you look closer at the numbers, RGPS has way more than the 40 minimum seats guaranteed in Phase 2C, so I don't think the changes to Phase 2A, 2B and 2C would apply to RGPS. It does appear to be a shoo-in for people staying <1km. Fingers crossed :xedfingers:

Hi I would like to know your thoughts on this. Im staying in Jurong and and considering the distance will there be any slight chance for my girl to apply to RGS? I know I have big dreams. Lol

Assuming that
your daughter is a SC and u get short-listed to become a Parent Volunteer (Rgps), you can apply under Phase 2B. PVs staying more than 2 km, do stand a chance, under 2B phase.

But,
if u are talking about Phase 2C,
as can be seen from the past years' balloting statistics, balloting was conducted -

most of the time,
for SCs living more than 2 km.

And occasionally,
for SCs living between (1 to 2) km, in some years.

Odds are very poor in Phase 2C for more than 2km.

Aren't there good pri schools in Jurong, like Rulang and Shuqun?
