Scary,

i see...i hope its not a case tt i gave the wrong contact no. to school due to nervousness....
Will go with my DH...i dun want to go thr this myself....we will probably go early ,'chop' seats & sit there like obedient students as early as 9.30 am...no kids...think too dramatic for them to see their mummy go crazy or faint if we dun get in .....hope they have a medical team standby for such emergencies :rotflmao:

Hi Scary, Willow,

Me and DH also not bringing DH too cos not confirmed yet so dun wanna stress her like us! I did ask about her preference and she told me she's ok with either one of the sch (PHPPS or BTPS). This is for sure an assuring reply for me at least! :boogie:

So we jus hv to leave it to fate and cross our fingers! :xedfingers: We've done our best and I'm sure our children appreciates our hardwork/effort. :hugs:

Let's hope for the best and good luck to 3 of us on balloting day!

HI Parents,

All the best for balloting this coming Friday.
Be it Pei Hwa or Bukit Timah, I believe both schools have advantages.
If your child goes to BTPS, he/she will enjoy morning session from P1 which is actually more time for rest in the afternoon.

Hi Cheerie,
I know you are really stressed...judging from what you mentioned earlier.

The challenge is that there is not enough teachers, eg my dd at MGS, has 40 students to 1 class, and not enough teachers. I spoke to some ex-teachers, and they felt the policies and bureacracy these days in schools and all this measurements/ranking leads to unnecessary overhead instead of focusing on the kids development and potential. Every child is unique, and has potential to excel in their passion.
:imdrowning:

Don't think there are insufficient teachers as there are enough vacancies for all the children. The problem, as pointed out, is a misallocation of these vacancies to schools which are not popular. The teachers at these unpopular schools, given thoughtful planning, may be re-allocated to the schools which are overscribed.

Hi, does anyone know how many PR vs Sporean for P2C <1km at RGPS? Thanks.

[ngsc23]

Think normally schools will not disclose the ratio between SGP and PRs.

As for RGPS, i was at the registration on 2nd day. The one in front of me is already a PR. While on the last day, think the last on that register looks like a PR too.

So gathering for the few posts earlier, think there will be quite some PRs in balloting this coming Friday.

But if anyone has any insight on the ratio in RGPS, plse share.
