      Also remember that schs will have to gradually become single session, even if they are not yet doing so.

        You are right. Cos the intake for P1 this year has reduced 30 no from each school till they can become single, those schools which cannot fill up the vacanies will then merge together with other primary schools. Make parents no choice but just go to those schools within 2km!!! As told by a VP from a primary school.

          I prefer AM session. PM is quite rush. Only about two productive hours at home in the morning. Then need to go to school. Evening too tired to do anything after so many hours in school. Hard to squeeze in enrichment class in morning (too rushed) or evening (too tired)

            Exactly - I also prefer morning session. My gal told me that sometimes she would feel tired and sleepy after her recess (330pm)..

              Yup, you got that in a nutshell sleepy.. šŸ˜‰

              One thing to add though, for P1 kiddies who
              aren't used to waking up very early the PM
              session suits them fine.

              Anyways, eventually all schools here will be
              single session. No need to think anymore..
              Hehee.. šŸ˜‰

                  titank, some schools wud have already

                  converted to single session before that
                  time... some already are now. The rest
                  wud still be in transition like my DDs'
                  school already next year, P3 to P6 AM
                  and P1/P2 PM. So by following year or
                  the next shud be all AM liao. That's one
                  reason for some schools' reduced intake.
                  Make sure enuf space for everybody by
                  the time everyone goes into single session. šŸ˜‰

                    Hi Buds,

                    I had ever ask MOE when all schools would go single session, they said that would depends on the following parameters.

                    (1)\tEmploying more Teachers.
                    (2)\tConstruct more schools.
                    (3)\t Reduce the volume of intake every year.

                    It seem they are taking Step 3 more than Step 1 & 2. Yes hopefully everyone have a space.

                      Hi Titank!

                      MOE has to make sure there is space for everyone because of compulsory primary education. The only question is - where..... šŸ˜“

                        Yes, u r very right....question is 'where'....coz most
                        parents cannot settle for just 'any' schools.

                        Before going through this P1 registration, I never
                        understood the agony of the stress till I personally
                        endured all these analysis making, sleepless nights
                        & finally the ballot day.....sigh.

                        thank God its all over for me.... šŸ™
