[Jurong West] Primary Schools

[happystar]

Oh, to be specific, I mean the academic standard of the school and in general whether the students are well behaved.


Thanks for the clarification on balotting phases!

Just shifted from Punggol over to Teban and kinda struck by the reality of choosing a place for my 2 girls. I had my eyes on Mee Toh at 2 mins walking distance from me previously but that is shattered now.



Really keen to have them in Lakeside Primary School and Pro-Teach for student care.

Does anyone know about Lakeside Schooling hours?

cheers :?:

hi i’m new here. my daughter will be going to primary 1 in 2012. i’m a little lost to whether should i send my daughter to xingnan primary, jurong west primary or shuqun primary.


shuqun primary is because it’s my husband ex-school so she got priority but its too far from my place.

i’m staying at jurong west st 93 the nearest sch is jurong west pri but looking at previous results phase 2C required balloting. and i scare that i’m not that lucky which will need to go into phase 2C sub for other school

and for xingnan pri, seems like a good school to go to other then west grove primary in jurong west but usually if phase 2c sub very hard to go in. Can anyone advise me what to do?? can’t make up my mind for my children future

LKVM:

Xingnan is good school i think you can ahead with it and since it will be nearer to your place too...IMHO

Agrees with LKVM's opinion . By the way, I have sent you a PM (private message).

Thank you.

Hi need help on PV issues.

My DD's grandparents are staying within 1km from Rulang and I can use their address to apply for P1 registration, right? And If I get to do PV with Rulang, will It increase the chance of getting a place in that school? :?

If you are going by the caregiver route, your girl will be under the 1-2 km category, even though the grandparents stay within 1 km from the school.

yes, thats correct.

Based on 1-2km cat. do u think I should perform PV in that school to increase my chance of getting my DD into that school? Don't want to perform 40hrs of duties for nothing....

Please see the balloting history for the school: http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/jurong-west

Based on history, you seem quite safe. However, there is no guarantee that the situation will be the same in the year of your child's registration.

FYI, is not easy to get into PV, normally they only select about 50 PV out of 250+ applicant.
