Thanks mummy3streams!
OIC, so they quite strict with "strangers" which is good in a sense.
Laughingcat,
Just wanted to go and take a look. Do my due diligence before registration next year. I saw from outside some of those blocks white with blue colour does not look nice at all. How does the school actually look like?
Furthermore, I thought we can go in during school hours, recess time or what and do some observation. ie. the mood, the happiness level of the students, vibes etc. What is the point of going to the school during off hours so quiet?
But anyway will abide by the rules, will write in and pop by to take a look soon! -
Hi Desertwind,
At the quadrangle is more than enough already. There are noisy boys. You can pop by at Phase 2A2 registration which is tomorrow and friday. Just ask the admin people in-charge at the PA room which is beside the quadrangle. They will allow you to do so. Both ACSP and ACSJ allow parents to have a look at the school environment during the registration. But then again not at the classroom. -
K, thanks, noted, laughingcat!

Hi jass,
I think you should just go for 2B ACSJS first if secured then at least you got into a good sch. ACSPS has less places and you wouldn't know wht is the situation at 2C.jass:
Hi
I am able to register my son in acs junior under phase 2b however I very to drive to acs junior as compared to we can walk to acs Barker. However registration for acs Barker will be 2c.
Am thinking of logistically my son can walk to school if acs Barker but 2b and 2c is also some risk. I am a Singaporean.
Could any kind parent advise what we should do? Is there any difference between these schools please? Thank u for ur time.
Just wondering if you are using grassroot to apply ACSJ? Usually parent who apply 2B using church letter would be able to apply to both acs barker and acs junior.
So.. Are you within 1km to acs junior for 2B? -
If the house to the ACSJ is 1.04 km, will it consider as Phase 2C within 1 km or 2km? What is the chances like? Should I aim ACSP less than 1km or ACSJ?

How far your house is has nothing to do with registration phases.

The phases you are in depends on your relationship with the school eg. current sibling still in school, alumni, PV, church/clan affliation or GRL and not the distance.

Thanks. I knew that. I post wrong question. I know it is phase 2C but with the distance just over 1km, will they take it as phase 2C within 2km or 1km? What is the chances like? Should I aim for ACSP (less than 1km) or ACSJ (1.04 km) under phase 2C?zakashi:

Historically speaking, no chance for ACPS at phase 2C since they ballot within 1 km or just nice vacancy and applicants.dorisp:

Hmmmm........tough. :scratchhead: i would opt ACSJ because it has slightly more vacancy and hence better chance.
