While you can get your son in through phase 2A, you must also consider the distance that your son needs to travel to get to school.

Bishan is not really that close to Marine Parade.

Could it be because everyone hold back till the last day to register so that they can estimate if they need to ballot?


From past few years, it seem like it need to ballot for phase 2C.

[quote=\"spikey\"]henry park's popularity seems to have declined over the years...

yup, I thought so too. I think cos their PSLE results not as sterling as other schools? I didn't check their PSLE results ranking though.

used to be a very hot school, especially when RGPS was next to it. Plus it is co-ed and it is a relatively new building.

weird that it has dropped in popularity.[/quote]

I have registered DS in RVPS in Phase2b. Problem is DH is keen to withdraw from RVPS and register in ACPS which is < 1km and it is confirmed that balloting will be conducted for ACPS. DH thinks the probability of getting into ACPS is still quite high. My fear is what if we are one of the unlucky ones?

make a final decision at 4 pm tmr. Yr husband should wait at ACPS and u standby at RVPS to withdraw. Do you have another kid or a daughter? If u have secured RVPS, better for the sibling.

think you have to check on the statistics tomorrow on FF before close of registration to see what your chances are. then you decide again, but not too late in deciding in case you missed out both schools cos of the time!

true. but on the other hand, for him to get CHS is a surer bet than TNS.
