      Hello - this forum is really active - my last posts is at page 40+ and now we are already at page 74.


      Just saw the balloting results for P1 for next year and oh dear - even Yangzheng now require balloting too at Phase 2C?

      My 2nd and 3rd child qualifies for Phase 2A2 for Yangzheng Primary School and initally I was thinking of trying for Rosyth under Phase 2B (but I dont think I get selected as PV after the 1st interview) - so Im not placing my chips there anymore.

      I was looking at CHIJ Toa Payoh (within 1km) - but seem that they dont do PV - only allow PV for parents of existing students. Their balloting under Phase 2C I also seem quite xiong.. and Im worried if I withdraw from YZPS and try for CHIJ TP - if I dont get the place, then I will end up loosing both ends and places.

      Dilemma.. should I just stick to YZPS for my gals šŸ˜ž this is so stressful... when P1 is still a few years away.

        No harm registering them with YZPS at P2A first, and monitor the situation.

              Are you in the same registering phase for all schools?

                        Then, you may like to choose a school that is most easily accessible from your house.

                        In terms of results, I would say they are rather close to one another.
