2011 P1 Registration Exercise for 2012 In-Take

[Monster Mummy]

Hi,

If I am not wrong, birth rate that year 2005 is also considered low.

If based on birth rate(Singaporean vs Singaporean), I don't forsee school like acsj, Chua cho Kang primary, sji will need to ballot in phase 2c....


Somehow, some seats are taken up from unexpected foreigners turn PR and they do pv, church/clan/grassroot(?) that occupy the places.

Birth rate in 2005 is not that high, you know....

I don't know about CCK Pri, but ACSJ and SJI all have a long history, strong alumni and desirable affiliation to sec schs. The number of private housing sprouting around these schools could also account for their popularity. With SJI Sec going IP, there is no surprise more parents are interested in SJI.

Schools have also reduced intake in order to go single session. However, new schools have also been set up.

The number of P1 vacancies will always be higher than the birth rate and will certainly have a comfortable buffer for PRs. But there is really little control over the popularity of schools which is shaped by one's perspective.

Hence the increase in foreigners / PRs in Spore is not the only reason for balloting in schools. And we certainly cannot use birth rate to predict if balloting is needed in schools. There is no direct nor obvious corelation.

I'm not from MOE by the way. Just feel that we should see things in perspective.

I don't have the statistics, but i just feel there seems to be more 2005 boys than girls. Every class my little girl attends seems to have more boys than girls. One class has ratio of 8 boys to 2 girls.

Hmmm .... i don't need to worry that my DD can't find a hubby. :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Hehehe, DS class also has more boys then girls. Well actually there is only 1 girl in his class.


But no worries, he can go after girls of different age also.

Yaya. .must look at the stats for boys vs girls in 2006, 2007, 2008, etc. Not just 2005. In fact, most of my friends have girls born after 2005.

after phase 3 foreigners registration, P1 2012 has come to a close, grand finale .... farewell 2012!


all the little golden roosters have joyfully hopped onto the band wagon(s), happily and excitedly destination bound for different Primary schools orientation all over SG, waving good-bye :imanisland: :grphug: ...
Exit the golden roosters, they now hand over and pass the baton over to 2013 troupe.

Some kids who are borned in 2005 before CNY are still considered to be under the Chinese Monkey year. The same will apply to yr 2006 kids.
