Can anyone share for SVPS past history record does P2B need to ballot as well?

yes for last yr, ph2b ballot for within 1km. R u registering under this phase this yr?

Nope, too bad I fall under P2C
Check with SV, past history record under P2C <1km need to ballot. Those stay beyond don't even need to think.

Any idea what is the chance to get into De La Salle in Phase 2B for staying more than 2Km away? As check from last year record seem safe to go in.

from last year record, yes 100% chance to get in under 2B...
but again, we never know ....
and i still remembered from last year's heart thumping event,
there were more chances for 2Cs coz the take up rate for 2B was very low...

Wah, titank! How can you ask this type of question?

Don't think even the school can answer your question. :scratchhead:

Tough fight this year as they reduce enrolment by 1 class. But who knows more parents will want to avoid the tough fight and opt for CCKPS instead.

Yup. It was even noted in the papers if i recall correctly.
Parent volunteers were oversubscribed and they had to
ballot. Many didn't manage to get in due to the balloting
even after completing volunteer hours. I empathize with
them. The hours put in are extremely sacrificial especially
for the working parents. :hugs:

While a few went ahead one more time at Phase 2C, some
others were disappointed and went elsewhere.

When it comes to SV and DLS, the chances are really 50-50
especially without the faster channels/1st timers in P1 reg...

I have old students from my enrichment classes studying in
CCKPS. Errr.. they're all Chinese. All of them said their children
are coping fine and enjoy school. Ethnic balance should be same
across the board with all schools isn't it... especially government
schools?

I saw past year balloting record it was like 2007, 2008 where required to ballot for those in Phase 2B but in 2009 is like 100% go in for Phase 2B.
Maybe really have to ask Paul Octopus already!

Maybe they wised up after getting complains from non-successful 2B applicants that they reduced the number of PVs?

De La Salle don’t take in PVs …only church associations.
