[Novena] Primary Schools

[zakashi]

Does it shows how many applicants are Singpaore citizen and PR? I just came across this thread and was surprised to learn the take up rate just for the phase 1. Worst, someone guess that there will be balloting for Phased 2B within 1 km. This is before phased 2A!

Seeking views on what people on this forum would do:


Apply under 2B (<2km) at CHIJ Toa Payoh or risk applying under 2C (<1km) at SCGS?

For me I will try the 2B first, if it's unsuccessful then go for the latter (sg got absolute priority).

50-50 sharing of crumbs for phase2b and 2c. Efforts (pv or grl) all goes to waste if didn't get a place will feel worse than phase 2c parents.

Phase 2b if within

1km shd still be v good chance…but how to be phase 2b for scgs since they are v selective abt their pv n from wad i understand, scgs is one of the schools whose grc changed due to the boumdaries redrawn during the GE, hence many grl in tanjong pagar grc (before the GE) didnt manage to get to phase 2b of schools that were affected.
