Yes i heard it has an affiliation. But since i am a PR it is difficult for me to get into the school

If you like affiliation, then you may like to monitor St Gab's in Serangoon and Montfort in Hougang.

But i heard St.Gab is not a good school and i would like my son to go to a mixed school. Because my son is already a rough boy and if i put him in a boys school he will get even more rough. So i chose KCPPS. it is a very hard situation for me since i am a PR.

Hi everyone,

My son is a PR from China. Our home is near both the Potong Pasir and Woodleigh MRT stations. We are looking for a school providing higher Chinese lesson or more Chinese oriented. Due to the new registration rule, our choice is very limited. We don’t anticipate to get seat from those TOP school like Pei Chun. Are there any schools recommended? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I live within 2 km of Rosyth and hoping to register my girls (3 of them) at Rosyth under Phase 2C. I noted that 145 of the available space already taken up in Phase 1. What do you think are my chances of getting them in at Phase 2C? Thanks

If you go in at Phase 2C for Rosyth and you are outside 1km you will not get in, unless there are a large number of PRs applying. It always go to balloting within 1km.

Thanks, Bluebelt. If I fail to get in, would they simply post my girls to any school that has vacancies or can I choose another school? Sorry, am asking 'cos its first time I have to register kids for school in Singapore.

If you fail to get in during Phase 2C you can still try again in Phase 2C Supp but there will be very few places left. You will almost certainly end up with Zhonghua if you want somewhere relatively close.
