[phtthp]

hi Power Puff,


CHIJ St Nicholas phase 2B, for baptized Roman Catholic :-

no balloting for 2009.

however for 2010 and 2011 -
there was balloting for applicants living < 1km, hotly contested.

Hi phtthp,


Thanks for the info. Hey, I just remembered that my dd2 is a Tiger baby. Perhaps there will be a lot less competition for p1 spaces in 2017 :rahrah:

hi Power Puff,


i just pm you.

Hi everyone, I’ve just joined this forum and would really appreciate if I could get some advice regarding the P1 registration.

I hope to enrol my son(born in 2007) into ACS(either primary or junior as I am staying within 1 km of both schools) .I am currently serving in the NC/grassroots which puts me into phase 2B FOR ACS Primary.

However for ACS Pri ,balloting is required even for 2B. Assuming if this 2B balloting fails, would phase 2C (ACS Pri )still be available ? Or should I try for phase 2C for ACS Junior ?

If both fail, what shd my next step be ?

Pls give me some advice. thanks !

Based on past years' statistics, you should be safe for both schools in P2B.

Again, based on past years' statistics, ACJS seemed safer in P2C.

You will only be able to register with a school that still has vacancy in P2CS.

Please refer to the balloting statistics for more information:

ACS Junior

both ACS schools are sizzling hot cakes!
by end 2C, all seats snapped up. No chance at 2C Supplementary.

by end 2C if you fail to enter into either ACS school, last choice:-
can only go for schools under 2C Supp, that still has vacancies.
Foreigners will start to pour in at phase 3.

correct me if i am wrong, but i think for the past 2 to 3 yeras, for phase 2b at acsp, the no. of applicants (within 1km) = the no. of vacancies. just nice (no balloting needed).


amazing isnt it

[phtthp]

parents who wish to know which schools lie within 1 km, within 2 km or > 2km from your house, may type in your address with Singapore postal code, hit \"magnifying glass\" query button. The answer comes out on the spot:-


schools appearing within BLUE zone Circle: < 1 km

schools appearing within RED zone Circle: 1 to 2 km

schools appearing outside RED zone Circle: > 2 km

Sorry,pls excuse me, Im still kinda confused here after looking at the stats.


For ACS Barker, Im within 1km as well as in grassroots.
For ACS Junior, I am only within 1 km

so I should definitely try for ACS Barker first rite ?

[LOLMum]

Yes try barker under 2b first.


If unsuccessful, monitor the situation between the two schools and decide which one has higher chance of getting in.

From past records, it is easier to get a place in junior 2c within 1 km.


Just curios, I am unfamiliar with grassroots thingy but your advantage in 2 b doesnt allow you to apply at junior in phase 2b?
