        Your interest for 2012 P1 registration very interesting. Do you know that ACS and SJI are boys' school and St Margaret's is a girls' school? So which are you considering? Boys' school or Girls' school or mixed school? :scratchhead:

          Lol.


          I have 2 boys 1 girl. Currently staying in east. I would like to choose a school that requires no balloting for 2c within 1km.

          So I’m trying to find stats before I make my move.

          I’m from grassroots for bedok but still need to ballot under 2b 1km.

          So I thought go to acjs or sjij since up till 2010 2c 1km no ballot.
          Then I heard 2011 both schools balloted during 2c 1km.

          So back to drawing board…

            Can I register twice? First i will register my child under 2B outside 2km and is successful than register again under 2C within 1 km for other school near to my house.


            No. You need to withdraw your registration from the first school before you are able to register with the second school.


            Thanks! Do you know what is the chance for entering ACS baker/primary under 2C within 1 km that is near my house? Since I have 2B but outside 2km, I know the chance is very slim for popular school in Tampines. Unless, I rent a place so as to be qualify under 2B within 1 km. Is there any rules for renting. It is really a big headache. I am living just a stone throw to ACS/SCGH but what is the chance of getting into the school? Very scary!

              hi phtthp,


              i’m looking at ACSJ, SJIJ, St. Margaret, Temasek Primary School, Red Swastika, Tanjong Katong Primary School.

              Reason being i have 2 boys, 1 girl. Currently grassroots in bedok but heard that temasek 2b 1km required balloting.

              thus i’m trying to find a school that does not have balloting for 2c <1km.

              thanks!!

                    Oic.


                    Entering acs or sji in phase 2C under 1km is a tough decision. Most of the time is a betting game. Like what jangoh had mentioned and it is true that balloting took place under phase 2c for 1km.

                    Even for phase 2B, it was so near to balloting in 2011, just a shy of 2 seats only.

                      Thanks for advice.


                      Blueblue, u r right. Maris Stella had any 2c 1km balloting in 2011? Was it very close gap between app & vac?

                      Laughingcat, e problem with sjij and acjs is that I have no clue wat shld backup school b if I don’t get in at 2c. Any suggestion?

                      Thanks!!

                        Hi Peers,


                        I actually been a PV starting this year, but currently I am staying 1-2km away from the school, based on the \"abnormal\" spikes of registration this yr, even PV for 1-2km also needs balloting.
                        Right now, I'm considering to move to a new EC, which as per onemap, it's 900+m away from the school. So with PV + <1km away, I think I got high chance of getting in.

                        But I just called up the school, she told me she cant advise me on the distance, coz the distance guide for next yr aint out yet (aint it suppose to be similar to this yr i tot? hmm.. i guess the admin wasnt v helpful)..
                        anyway, do you know is there any other way I can find out?

                        2nd qns, as the TOP is 1Q2014, but as per latest data, likely to be 3or 4Q2013 (P1 in 2013), so during my registration for nxt yr 2012, can i uses the \"new address\"? DO i need to write some appeal letters to the school/MOE to prove that I really did purchased a house there (though IC still showing old addy)?

                        Appreciate your advice , thanks 🙂
