2009 P1 Registration Exercise for 2010 In-Take

Luanee:

...... Parents eyeing these schools at phase 2B should be happy......

likewise for Parents applying under Phase 2C since the vacancies are split 50-50 ...

then again, the higher number of vacancies available in Phase 2B may attract more grassroots leaders to these schools

Hi all, I am new here. This question of mine may have been answered in the past. Please bear with me.


I am alumni to SCGS which means my daughters will get in at phase 2A1. However SCGS is further than MGS (within 1km). MGS means my mil or maid can walk them to school conveniently.

Any good advice on how I should take?
- just go for SCGS
- skip SCGS and bet on MGS that <1km no need to ballot
- apply for transfer after they started school

I suppose I can’t register in SCGS and subsequently try the <1km at MGS right? The records would have been updated that my girls have registered elsewhere…

We won't be able to determine how many grassroot leaders would apply in Phase 2B. Only PV able to gauge.

Grassroot leaders will be still subject to balloting if demand exceeds supply so I think for parents who qualify for phase 2B and lives within 1 km, you don have to worry so much.

What u can do is to apply SCGS under 2A1 first. Then monitor MGS take-up rate on the last day of phase 2C. IF applicants staying less than 1km are less than vacancies available, then u withdraw from SCGS and apply in MGS. Do note that MOE website numbers are for all applicants, and some may be staying out of 1km. SO u have to enquire at the school directly to ask how many are actually within 1km.

Great, thanks for your advice.

Based on past trends, only StNick and CH balloted under 2B for those staying within 1km. Good news is StNick has 11 more places this year under 2B. But CH no chance, surely need to ballot within 1km as 10 places less this year.

Anyway this is the list of my prediction for balloting under 2B this year :
StNick, RedSw, Temasek, ATS, CH, MGS, NYPS, PHPS, ACS(Jr), DLS, Southview, TNS, SJIJ, NCPS, StHilda, CHIJ(TPY) and PCPS.

Close on the borderline are CHIJ(Katong), HPPS, RGPS, KHS, CHIJ(OLTN), HIPS, Rulang, ACS(Pri), Gongshang and Chongfu.

Let's see how many I get it right hee

Dear All:


The 2B result will be out on 24 Jul, for those schools need balloting for phase 2B will have to conduct the balloting before or on 24 Jul?
In fact, i will have to register in 2C, but i know the desire school sure need balloting for P2C, so my question is the balloting execise will be carry out b4 the result day or on the result day? it is the whole singapore carrying the same balloting date or depend on the schools?

Pls advise, so that i can prepare myself for the big day —balloting.

Balloting would be conducted on or before the results day. Not all schools do it on the same day though most will do it on the results day.

hi Luanee


For those who need not go thru balloting say within 1 km , but for 1-2km need balloting, when will the school inform you ?
