ACS (Primary) update:
There will be NO balloting for phase 2B (according to ACS website http://www.anglochineseprimary.net/) as the number of applicants staying within 1km is exactly the same as the number of vacancies (26). -
It appeared that more and more people are living within 1 km to ACS nowsaday as compared to previous years. It used to have balloting within 1-2km in phase 2B but not anymore now.
I wonder why?
I wonder how many of these are genuinely living within 1km vacinity.
Similar to SCGS, I would expect there will be a drop in application for people are living within 1 km especially when the birthrate is one of the lowest for that year cohort..
I trust the MOE and schools will do the necessary check in order to be fair to those who are genuinely staying near to schools.BigDevil:

I called at just before 4pm and the status at that time looked like this:
Within 1km: 23
1-2km: 38
> 2km: 14
This means in the last half an hour or so, about 14 withdrew their applications. -

Its funny when the MOE web indicates total 2C vacancies as 59, but a check with sjij this morning, they say 2C vacancies only 57. They also said there will be balloting for 1-2km, as 40 are vying for 35 places. So those > 2km no chance liao.
Will need to find another school for 2CSupp. :?:
