Just curious , are most who work as PV here working parents ? How you guys afford the time !! Is it min 80 hrs ? Any min hrs by week ?

My ex-colleague went as far as to tender her resignation (tried to take 1 year no-pay leave, but HR deem that PV is not a good enough reason for granting no-pay leave) so that she can PV in 3 schools! So she has more choices during 2B registration. She is Singaporean by the way. Really :salute: her for her dedication. In the end, she succeeded in enrolling her boy in one of the 3 schools she PVed in. I'm really happy for her that her sacrifice and labour paid off.

I think some are working and some are not. For those who works, I think they take leave or time off.

I did my PV before I go to work since the school is within 5 min walking distance from home

In my situation with 2 kids and no maid nor in-law helping, PV would not be an available option for me if I am still working. Wouldn't even have time to start reading up on P1 registration info from KSP forum! Glad that I am still able to catch up in time since I stopped work few months ago. Reading up on KSP forum has provided a great start.

I am planning to use my leave, time-off and maybe some saturdays for PVs. Of course, provided such arrangements is acceptable and suits the school. Guess gotta make sacrifices here and there...sigh....
