alternatively, I'm thinking to move house...

I'm from South View Pri....

Another option for me is to enrol my girl for South View, and my younger son would enrol for Maris Stella...

Sometimes moving house does not guaranteed a place in the popular school either, as within 1km, the ballot success rate can also be quite low. I suggest you check up the KSP website for the past ballot history fo the schools you are interested before you decide on your strategy (sounds so chim :laugh: ) on how to go about this. By the way, when do you need to register your gal? If it is this year, it is a little late to start house hunting and moving :nailbite:

Were you a former student of South View ? If you are, keep that vital report book and/or PSLE cert. You will enjoy Phase 2A.

in the recent time, hardly any difference

if more parents join as alunmi in the future, it may make some difference

so far no difference, as balloting has only occurred for phase 2B and after. All applicants in earlier phases were 100% successful.

The only school that had came very close to ballot in phase 2A2 was CHS, during registration exercise last year. CHS has increased the number of vacancies this year by 1 class.

i need help.. my son will be due for P1 in 2013.

missed the deadline for PV at saint andrews..

as my mom stays in Toa payoh, i had my heart set on saint andrews, sji jr,
acs jr (she stays within 2km, also these schools offer Hindi..) i hope to register my girl in Haig girls. (went for the open house)

is there any way/suggestions to get my son in the school of my choice.. ?
i just recently sold my place to move closer to my mom's..

tried looking for a place near SJIjr (my budget was 1 mill).. the search has remained futile for the past three months.


really in a dilemma...

if these schools are beyond my reach, then what other schools near the area... help..
