Hi, I’m a newbie here. My son is a slight slow learner and due to register for P1.


I am eligible for RMPS (phase 2C <1-2km) or GESPS (Phase 2A(2)). Understand that there should be no problem of getting into GESPS. Is this true? Hence am unsure if it is worth taking the risk to register for RMPS first (though the chance may be slim) and if unsuccessful, i will then try GESPS in Phase 2C Supplementary.

However, I am also worried of the competition and stress level my son might face in RMPS if he gets into the school.

Can someone advise me before Phase 2A(2) commences? Thanks.

Surprised that there were applicants in the schools in this region for P2A1.

Suggest you get a place in GESPS Phase 2A(2) & monitor the situation of RMPS when at Phase 2C. RMPS I predict would have balloting for staying at within 1Km. Beyond that the chance is very slim. GESPS & ZDPS are coming up strongly well sought after RMPS, RVPS & CHIJ (Kelock).

With only 83 places taken up so far, balloting may be for those 1-2 km, imho.

Thanks for your advice, Titank! Awaiting the result tomorrow. Likely to give up RMPS and try ZDPS (Phase 2C; 1-2km) instead if there is a good chance. Otherwise will settle for GESPS. :sad:

ZDPS these few years have balloting for those staying at 1-2 km. It was like 40-50 fighting for 2-3 places in Phase 2C for those staying at 1-2km.

I would suggest you get a place in GESPS in Phase 2A(2) then watch the situation at ZDPS. GESPS coming up strongly due to good performance in PSLE in 2009.
