Ahh... at least you have one more year to prepare. Thise here have to regiser by next week or the week after in phase 2B or 2C already. You can imagine the anxiety.

besides, Phase 2A is almost 99.9%.

Hi Lonejean - really panic when you mentioned queue no was 159. i called NHPS to check but unable to find out immediately, she advised to call back 30min later for P2A2 updates.


Hopefully Mummy of 3 is correct, 240 less 159 = 81. :xedfingers:

THC, did you manage to get any information from you phone call to NHPS? Getting really nervous now!

Still got tomorrow to go, don't know how many more will register tomorrow, so the # will only get lesser and lesser ... i think last yr, left over into 2B and 2C are 28 seats each... and 84 fighting for 28 seats under 2C. What's more, heard there was 1 triplets and 2 pairs of twins got balloted.. and that took up 7 seats in 2 ballot slips... :nunchuk:

The school of my choice has 119 vacancies for 2(A)2, I called today and 60 have registered. I have this feeling it will go to ballot. If that happens I will withdraw since I live more than 10 km from the school. Can anyone advise if this is a good idea? I understand that if lets say 120 or 121 kids apply for 119 places, management may take in all to save on balloting procedure … can anybody confirm?


Thanks much

Hmm.. My understadning is that we go by distance. If a;; 121 kids for that 119 places are n teh same distance category and also all are SC, then even if exceed by 1 application, all must ballot. Anyone else have a different understanding, please help enlighten.

I can understand why some parents felt getting balloted successfully is better than striking lottery now. Pretty unique Singapore experience.

Not really uniquely Singapore.

This is a growing trend in Asia, where parents get stressed to get their precious little ones into choice schools / kindergartens
