I dunno which is the next better choice. Mayflower is the next closest to my place. I am considering either this or Teck Ghee. But Teck Ghee is a bit further away.

I am going to register for Teck Ghee Primary School. Its results are so much better than Anderson Primary. Just wondering how come so many people want to go balloting at Anderson?

[quote=\"jodi_mum\"]hello.. wd like to share in this too... i am registering my girl in Anderson but i am not sure of the chances too though i stay within 1 km.. Am thinking of going for Teck Ghee for Phase 2CS if she fail to get in... not sure if balloting is required for phase 2CS for teck ghee?

I think high chance need to ballot for <1km in P2C. Look at last's year stats...61 vacancies for P2C and 93 applicants are <1km. I am thinking of going for Teck Ghee too for P2CS.

Hi

For Teck Ghee:

Past 5 years, no balloting needed for 2CS

http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/ang-mo-kio

TUR this year is 38% until 2B, still seems to be within the threshold, although this a 5 % increase int he TUR until phase 2B as compared to last year.

On the other side, anderson has a huge increase on this year as compared to the last 5 years. For P2C, it left 33 places.

You may used past record to plan your move. All the best.[/quote]It's more important to measure the school by the results it produced than by popularity. I heard from my neighbours that Teck Ghee produces much better results than Anderson consistently over the years. My neighbour whose son is in Teck Ghee told me that the principal is very serious about producing results and imparting school values. According to my neighbour, she is at the gate and she monitors her teachers closely to produce results and ensure discipline. That was why my neighbour transferred her son from Anderson to Teck Ghee. Could anyone verify whether Teck Ghee produces much better PSLE results than Anderson? I have registered my daughter in Teck Ghee. Luckily no need balloting
