All About Parent Volunteers (PV)

[tohwei]

phantom:

My niece who got into primary one recently didn't got into one of the more popular neighborhood school even though she is been balloted in phase 2c. No luck. So now my sis is doing school's voluntary work for the school to prepare for my nephew. Wow, I wonder I should do the same, but it is a tempting proposal. Except the school's do reject for late application of parents volunteers

Hola to all

let me quote some example
Most school starts 01.07.2008 to 30.06.2009 for students going for pri one in the year 2010.

Henry Park is different , there start from 01.01.2009 TO 31.12.2009
FOR YEAR 2011 REGISTRATION

So if you want to be volunteer you have to start by 1st july and before 30 June

For Rulang very steady ,they only shortlist 45 regardless no of applicants.this year 190 plus for 2010 applicants

Nan Hua they don't enrol volunteer, so you have to go to their website downlaod application form. Fill in whatever you are capable of doing, for example designing of web site, translation etc if you happen to fulfill their on going project at the right time , bingo they will invite you for an interview and shortlisted as volunteer.

I have registered my child for my 1st choice school which si 1-2km. However, after day 2, the number of children applied were more than the seats available. My 2nd choice is 1km away. I was thinking that I just go for my 1st choice and if not successful after balloting then try for my 2 choice during phase 2C sup.


Does Phase 2C sup go according to distant as well and perform balloting if demand more than supply?

example
2C 100 VACANCIES 150 REGISTERED. SCHOOL WILL INFORM THOSE THAT IS MORE THAT 1KM TO WITHDRWA. IF HAPPEN ONLY 30 IS MORE THAN IKM THAT BAL 120 WHICH IS WITHIN 1KM STILL NEED BALLOTING

So if we had completed PV 40 hours with the school, would they issued us any letter of service?

WHEN YOU APPLY UNDER 2B THE SCHOOL WILL KNOW YOU HAD BEEN A VOLUNTEER BIT I DON'T KNOW HOW IS THE DOCUMENT ISSUED BECAUSE DIFFERENT SCHOOL MIGHT HAVE DIFFERENT PRACTISE

Thks Tohwei,


I mean if I fail to get my 1st choice after balloting for phase 2C, I need to go for phase 2C supplementary.

So for Phase2C supplementary, does it work the same? Does it go by distant if the seats are lesser than the children apply?
