2012 P1 Registration Exercise for 2013 In-Take

[phtthp]

agree! September coming up fast next week, December is Christmas season.


so left only last 3 months (Sep, Oct, Nov) before step in P1, steam engine fully turned on. No turning back anymore. So focus on whatever need to brush up, for remaining 3 months left. You’re now driving on right lane, got to maintain speed.

jia you!

b)\tif dun want to shift (for whatever reasons) – fallback strategy is: consider alternative nearby good neighbourhood school(s). means one spouse PV, perhaps another spouse grassroot.

Dear phtthp,
How do you define what is alternative nearby good neighbourhood school(s)? Do you mean neighbourhood schools there are bad ones :? :scratchhead:

phtthp:

in the event last minute suddenly MOE announce sudden change of 2A rules, at least 2As are not caught in dilemma. Then 2B kicks in. If fail under PV – your spouse grassroot becomes safety net ?

Safety Net :? :scratchhead: So, you are encouraging parents to do Voluntarily work as PV or grassroot members in order to \"play safe\"

[quote=\"30plus\"]Chief, you really KS. The 2012 exercise has not finished yet. You put up 2013 already. My DS1 will be there then. More and more challenging from the stats. :oops:

But I'm really ChiefKS. Or you prefer to call me ChiefReallyKS?

Anyway, I created this thread because someone has already started asking questions about it and there is no existing thread for it.

good thread to be initiated. My brother was concerned abt his daughter who might have problem looking for a good school when Y2013 registration comes. Cos he stays at Pasir Panjang area and no school around.. any advice from pple staying at that area ? Thks[/quote]Pasir Panjang can try Blangah Rise Primary which is the nearest.

There will be balloting. My friend also PV >2 km and had to ballot. This year about 60 people balloted for 40+ seats if I'm not wrong. So around 14 pax didn't get in.

Thanks very much michyms, will let her know. :scared:

phtthp, if possible, would be most ideal if your friend can move a little closer to the school, or else so sayang if do PV and cannot get in. I feel very sad for parents when that happens. My friend was saying that many PRs who do PV initially live >2km from the school, then will move to within 1km when registration starts.

my friend stay in Toa Payoh.


seems like for all boys’ school - St Andrew Junior and Marris Stella very hot!

[phtthp]

Thanks very much for your concern, michyms.


i’ll convey her the message. Understand what you mean to increase her chance … esp.PV clocking many hours at St Andrew Anglican boys’ school.

phttp, ya all the boys’ school in the area very "hot"… SJIJ, SAJS and Maris and CH. But I think for SAJS and Maris - balloting only >2km so if within 1km, is guaranteed at Phase 2B. Only CH balloting for within 1km, and the odds are scary. If I had to choose, I’d rather move within 1km of Maris or SAJS than CH.
