          Hi mummies out there,


          I had successfully balloted into school A for my elder boy for P1 this year. However, our ideal school is school B. Thus, if I am able to successfully enrol my younger boy to school B, can I still transfer my elder one to school B by riding on sibling studying in the same school? Is there any criteria which i need to note? Appreciate mummies here can share their experiences with me.

          Thank you

            hi kiakiamom,
            this is what happened to someone i know of.
            Elder child enrolled in Sch A. Younger child balloted successfully in Sch B (of choice). Parents put Elder child in waitlist for transfer to Sch B. When a vacancy arises in upper primary, the sch notified the parents but informed them that the Elder child will not be allocated to class according to exam results as vacancies are in other non-banded classes.
            You can approach Sch B to request for transfer and they will probably give you priority (over other regular/normal) waitlister); but be prepared to accept any vacancy even if it is not in the first few classes (although Elder Child may be in top few classes in Sch A).
            Good luck!

                different school, different requirements.


                best to call up that particular school you’re interested in. Ask to speak to the Officer in charge of Transfer Admission, not just any admin staff. Both email and telephone are found on the school’s website, under "Contact us".

                    those seeking transfer to either popular affliated schools by P5 latest or for GEP programme, here are some psle.


                    most schools won't entertain incoming Transfer requests at P6 - because the effective time duration needed for a child to prepare psle is 1.5 years (beginning P5 to mid P6, after that is prelim)

                    ideally transfer before end P4 -
                    so that when there's a re-org of classes at end P4 into P5, the child still has the chance to join one of the few best classes.


                    if child transfer in at P5 -
                    child had already missed the boat, end up cannot join the best few classes.

                      Does anyone has any idea how to arrange for transfering to a new school which will only be operating in 2013?


                      I appreciate any information
