Thanks 3Boys... we have already updated our KiasuParents.com balloting history accordingly.

When analyzing the data, keep your eye on the last column - the \"Average TUR Up to 2B\" indicator (ATUR).

For 2007:
Balloting in Phase 2B occurred when the ATUR was above 21%.
Balloting or cut-off in Phase 2C was guaranteed when the ATUR was above 55% for distances under 2km, and when it was above 58%, all except 2 schools had balloting for under 1km.

For 2008:
Balloting in Phase 2B occurred when the ATUR was above 26%.
Balloting or cut-off in Phase 2C was guaranteed when the ATUR was above 56% for distances under 2km, and when it was above 59%, all except 2 schools had balloting for under 1km.

How do you use this info?
- If the ATUR of the school you are eyeing is less than 20%, the chance of balloting in Phase 2B is low. If it is above 20%, there may or may not be balloting.

- If the ATUR of the school you are eyeing is 55% or more, do not try for the school in Phase 2C if you stay more than 2km away.

- If it is 58% or more, do not try for the school if you are not staying within 1km of the school.

- Note that even if the ATUR of the school is under 55%, balloting within 1km in Phase 2C CAN still occur. The statistics is only useful as a STOP-LOSS guide, so that you can start checking out your 2nd choice schools earlier than later, should your first choice school fall under the statistical improbability zones.

Based on the above, at this point, it is VERY likely that the following schools will require balloting in Phase 2C:
Unity Primary
Admiralty Primary
Rivervale Primary
Xinmin Primary

Those staying outside 2km of these schools should look somewhere else if you are trying for them in Phase 2C.

Did you mean 2B or 2C?

I really meant Phase 2B for that statement

Most schools have lower intake at phase1 this year compared to last year due to 2003’s lower birthrate. But some schools buck the trend eg. Beacon (+40), Innova (+39) and Greendale (+34) etc. Wow…


Do note that some parents may withdraw their phase1 applications later if they deem that they have a good chance in another choice school which they are eyeing but only eligible in later phases.

So if I am only eligible for Phrase 2C for e.g. for School B, but currently registered for School A in Phrase 1, I can withdraw from School A and go to School B for later phrase registration? How fast is the process to withdraw? Thanks
