2014 P1 Registration Exercise for 2015 In-Take
-
hi imami
the school will inform u if u are selected & when to start your PV duties. I did PV for my elder gal & the school conduct interviews prior to selection. But I’m not sure if its the same for all school. U can check with your choice of school when u apply for PV. -

Hi imami
I feel doing PV is not just abt clocking the 40hrs or 60hrs (in some schools), u get to know the school & teachers better & assess if this is the school for your child. -

With reducing birthrate, getting child into preferred school should be easier. Right?wow...saw the results are out from Phase 1...
my choice of sch only left half of the vacancy for the Phase 2....
Heng this year is not the year yet...
Looking at this year number, this might be the case.
Nowadays, parents are better educated and informed thus more KS.
And with the booming tutition centres island wide, getting a guarantee place in 2B or 2C is almost impossible without balloting. -
Yes, the birth rate is not high nowadays…but found the latest direction of MOE is plan to change to one session for all school in coming few years, so some of the school start to reach this by cut down the P1 vacancies that they could offered. This is what I worried… Don’t know how many vacancy will be offer in 2014 year.

Most of the neighborhood including malls, CC conducts some form of enrichment, tuition...etc for pre-primary onwards.
Which inadvertly influence parents behavior (those not so KS to become KS as well). How often does kid education crop up among friends meetings? Very often we tends to follow the herd mentality (KSu and KSi). -
My ger will be registering for her primary 1 in 2014 too. We have no problem on this for my son. We got in ACS via 2a1. For my ger, I have a few choice.
1) marymount convent (1km)
2) Kuochuan preb (1km)
3) pei Chun (1km)
Which school will be better ? -

Are u sure the reduced birthrate is helping our kids getting into preferred schools???

the reduced birthrate is not helping as we still have new citizens + new PRs every year whose kids are also going to pri sch too(and those parents who have kids under the phase 1 + old boys/gals from that school)... and the direction from MOE is not helping cos all are going to be in a single session soon which mean more schools with reduced classes... and more new pri schools built but no one wants to be register cos of no history and so on...
Usually our \"preferred\" schools are of some long historys, establishment or some achievements. That is why i was saying that the school i want my DD in (in 2015) already have half seats taken this yr... but luckily my DD can register under phase 2A2 in year to come....
It is definately not Ksu or Ksi... -
Asking my wife to do PV at Chongfu
60 HRs
hopefully we can put my first DD to that school , heard it is quite good but dunno la
if she cannot adapt…then may have to set a lower expectation
