[Bukit Timah] Primary Schools

[VooVoo]

If I can get into PV ever, I’ll think of shifting house then…

I heard from a colleague that he initially got rejected PV (not NYPS) cos he was outside 2km, apparently the school told him it was a waste for him to PV since he was outside the 2km radius, until he showed his purchase agreement for a nearby condo within 1km.

babyronz, I think both MGS and SCSG are quite risky even if you rent a place <1km, esp MGS. Under phase 2C, both schools usually conduct balloting for 1-2km and MGS even did it for <1km in year 2007.


A safer bet would be RGPS i think. Reasons:
1. More classes (300 places compared to 200~210 places)
2. No affliliation to sec sch (hence less popular)
3. No church/clan connections

Actually since your daughter is so young, have u considered that all your plans would have gone awry if you suddenly have a son?

Errr..not really coz if I have a son he'll definitely study in a boys' sch..I have direct connection with one of the boys' sch in Bukit Timah..hehe..

Is there a all boys’ sch at Bukit Timah?

Boys Town? I thought this is a reform centre.

Assumption English Sch - Is this international sch?

ACS? :lol:

[Luanee]

Either ACS or SJI I guess? If you dont mind ur 2 kids in diff schools, then I guess single-gender schools be safer bet?

[matrix0405]

2 kids in 2 diff schools will really take some effort. If both on same session, who are you going to send first?

[VooVoo]

NYPS is not single session, is it?

[babyronz]

Just curious…why is NYPS so popular?
