      to those interested to do PV for NanChiao, i just talked te one of the admin staff, (for Y2007 born child) he said we can start to apply from Oct 2011(this year), they will upload the application form in Oct. we submit the form either via email or submit to the school personally. the application period is from oct 2011 to June 2012. Then if they need you, they will call you up to do PV from Oct 2012 to June 2013. Our kids have to register for Primary school enrollment from Jul 2013.


      We have to clock 40 hours. it all depends on wat Volunteering work they have..
      i wonder if they decided to call us, and after 1 year, there is not enough 40 hours, then how?
      Then they will give you a golden handshake (no $$) and thank you for your effort? šŸ™‚ :stupid:

                If you are a PV, you will be in P2B, not P2C.

                    There IS a difference. Within 2B, if demand exceeds supply, the distance comes into play again. Within 1km is most safe (die die guaranteed balloting or entry). 1-2KM, you MAY get a chance to ballot.

                    Eg, 20 spaces, 15 within 1km; 15 within 1-2km. Those 15 within 1km will confirm entry. The remaining 5 spaces will be contested by the 15 living in 1-2km.

                      so this is the difference, it will be much safer if staying within 1km range. too bad im out of this range.

                        Parents who are lucky to be selected to be PV, successfully chalk up 40 hours only have one HOPE - ie to get into school under 2B. Who wouldn't have that expectation...it's only natural right ?
                        The stress which parents have to face for their kids' education now. Thank goodness I have just 2...my hubby and I will coach one kid every night.
