I feel that it's really irresponsible for schools to accept PVs if there is a need to ballot even for <1km. What does it show? To show that the sch is very popular so the principal KPI and bonus will increase?


To me,that is so crappy, and it reflect badly on the principal's leadership. :mad:

They could just get more existing students' parents to chip in more help if they need so. Why exploit innocent parties who dun even get the chance to enroll in the sch??

I do not speak for all schools but in Tao Nan School, the school explained to all PV wannabes the duties involved and shown them the past years' registration stats. All parents that chose to stay & ballot and eventually contribute their 40hrs, did so with willingly and well informed.

Quite a lot of schools do that. I know of neighbourhood schools that inform PVs of that too. Most parents do PV with this knowledge but with a hope (like we all buy lottery though we know the hope is little). For parents staying >1km from popular school, PV is a route that may give a slim chance as P2C there is no chance for them. Given the slim vs no chance, they will take that and try - maybe hit lottery that year?

oh dear, better call moe or school asap to check cos address on ic is needed and doont think there is any address in the passport.

Will they accept based on mummy's ic? Then asap make a police report ...[/quote]
as mummyo said, address is based on dad's ic. best to call moe and school to check.

if someone used the lost ic to do illegal stuff (like getting loan from loanshark or to apply for telephone plan etc), the owner of the ic is responsible for it. so better to make police report asap and not wait till free.

Just a word of advice, ask for the MOE's person name, the one you speak to.

Last week when I called them, the MOE person says only need scanned copy of IC, then when I got to the school, they still need my DH to go down personally to show his original IC. He had to leave camp early to do so.

Call the school to find out, rather than MOE. At the end of the day, the school is the one accepting your application.

I have come across many cases where MOE said \"check with the school\". Hence, best to check with the school.

i'm done for.... :sad: moe clarified that passport copy, bills or driving license all nt allowed... they want the actual original doc... that is the IC to be shown..


my DH still can still asked me what abt mother's IC? that one alone cannot verified meh? I told him cos child birthcert reflect both our names mah... my own assumption lah...

anyway, TOLD HIM TO GO DOWN TO ICA NOW OR TMR MORNING.... to get the IC done..

the person over at MOE did mention if original IC nt in time to process, can get a temp one... as least that one will reflect all neccessary details that will be shown on the actual one..

now DH can sense the urgency in this & hurriedly proceed to ICA... :gloomy:
