2009 P1 Registration Exercise for 2010 In-Take

[mimiof2]

Dear All


Really need some expert advice.

My daughter is due to register for P1 in Phase 2C this year. We originally had in mind RMPS which is within 1-2 kim or RVPS which is >2km but looking at the take up rate to-date and the historical records, it seems we will have to ballot for both.

I am thinking of changing my plans to register for Zhangde Primary which is <1 km but my hubby is not too keen to have my daughter in the same school as his newphew. He was thinking we can just fall back on Queenstown Primary at Phase 2C supplementary if we are not successful with RMPS. Can anyone give some advice/ comparison between Zhangde and Queenstown?

I also see suggestions of monitoring vacancies before registering for our preferred school. Can anyone tell me how to do that so that I can decide if RMPS or RVPS will have a better chance of success.

Thanks in advance for all the advice.

I added up the number of kids registered as of 2A2 and found it to be 18565. Birth rate for 2003 was 37485....Just hoping that there wont be tough competition for 2C outside 2km! Any views?

history from past year registration showed most of the good school need ballot for within 1km. it is better to choose school within 1km. if u really want to try to go to school outside 2km, then u need to register on the 3rd day. find out the numbers of people register for that school. The scholl will advise u the chance or getting in or straight away ask u to register those school that within 1km.

Thanks, will do so! Cant wait for this to be over!

I am thinking of changing my plans to register for Zhangde Primary which is <1>2km to check the no. of applicants on the 3rd day. If the chances is low for >2km. it is better to choose school within 1km.

Only Princess E is 1-2km. What abt you? I live in Bkt Btk. Yrself?

i think you already know that phase 2C princess E 1-2km is very very slim. if you are lucky, may get chance to ballot.

Yes, I know about it.....I am praying very very hard and also watching RGPS and CHIJ Bkt Timah

You may want to post the thread in \"Bukit Merah Thread\"?

It being a Monday, I don't think people would miss a chance to take leave and have a longer weekend. So majority should register on Day 1.
