Hi Grandmaster


Thanks for all info…Given the Phase 2b results…what do u think of my chances of getting my son’s registered in bukitpanjang primary and beacon primary given that we are staying within 1 km within both schools…? Still troubling over which school to register …!

Answering on behalf of Tankee..

Phase 2C vacancies:
Beacon = (90 - 9) + 90 = 171 places
Bukit Panjang = (55 - 45) +55 = 65 places.

Based on the vacancies, your chances are definitely higher in Beacon compared to Bukit Panjang. Based on past history, staying within 1km is sure in but balloting is required for Bukit Panjang under 1km.

Hi igmum,

Beacon is having its open house on 28 July 4.30pm to 7.00pm. You could go down to take a look.

The school is also featured in Straits Time yesterday.

Hi Momocha


Thanks for your info...I got to know that and was planning to go....;)

I was keen to enrol my son into Beacon as it is also the nearest school to my place as compared to bukit panjang primary, except that my hubby is not so infavour of IT method of teaching....(esp when Beacon has no past PSLE records yet being so new)......

I am now pinning my hopes to the open house this coming wed....hoping that we can understand their way of teaching more....and clarify our other doubts......

Thanks...momocha

Hi igmum,


I was there too.

I really like the new school facilities and the technology they use.

But I am still concerned about whether this methodology will work as we have not seen the results yet.

How about you? Are you still going for BPPS?

Hi, I’m new to this forum.


I need some advice regarding the P1 resgistration. I’m staying at Blk 228 pending road and my school of choices is either bukit panjang pri or beacon pri.

I’m ok with either of these 2 schools. But my friend did tell me, for anyone staying between 1-2KM from Beacon pri can forget about it. As the school priority will be given to people living less than 1KM.

So should i just go ahead for bukit panjang pri since i will higher chance of getting in?
