[Tampines] Primary Schools

I think the most ideal route is to PV only in schools within 1km (hopefully a good school)…and hopefully have enough $$$ to buy/rent a place near that "dream" school!

This forum is really interesting and can get lots of good feedbacks especially on St. Hildas. Can ChiefKiasu advised whether i should try and ballot for St. Hildas since this is the only school that is within 1KM from my house. As for Poi Ching, I am within 2KM.

:lol: Seems that ChiefKiasu is the 'wise-old-man' whom everyone seeks advice from regarding P1 registration.
Have you take a look at the past year's balloting stats and the current TUR to determine your chances at both St Hilda and Poi Ching? -
how come I just read from newspaper that for those stay 1km, no need ballotting for St. Hilda's this year? looks like we get some contradicting info here..... :shock:
-
The news is correct without contradiction … There’s indeed no balloting for St H at Phase 2B coz all available seats are allocated to <1km and 1-2km, with no seats left for balloting for those out of 2km.

Wow… mum2one… your news was super accurate. St Hilda’s just posted its vacancies for Phase 2C => 44 only. Phase 2B take up is 46 instead of the original posted 45. So the lucky 18th did get a place in Phase 2B, but at the cost of 1 seat from Phase 2C. Considering that this 18th family is 1-2km and Phase 2C will likely involve balloting under 1km, they are really super lucky!

:shock: Can they do that? Isn't it stated that the remaining seats to be divided equally between phase 2B and 2C? Wouldn't those balloting families under 1km cry foul over the lost of 1 seat? -
I really don't know man!
Up to the school to answer for that .. :roll:
