      Hi,


      I saw somewhere in the forum that the principal from ZDPS was recently changed, and she is previously from QPS. Can anyone throw me some light as in what such statements are trying to imply? How important is the principal in the choice of a pri school?
      I heard pretty good comments about her over at the QTPS Parents' Networking Group, that she is approachable and actively involved in the school activities.

        May I know which year your child will be registering for P1? Cos' for ZDPS, PV application has closed for children registering in 2013 for 2014 intake.


        GEPS do not have the priority application via PV route, as they have a strong PSG network already

        Based on past history of balloting results, ZDPS has the risk of balloting if you stay > 1km at Phase 2C, while GEPS has no problems at Phase 2C.

        Hope the above information helps šŸ˜„
        My kid will be the 2014 intake. You are in the 1-2km range?
        I have submitted the PV application, but as I stayed < 1km :oops:, I am wondering if there is really a need for me to perform the duties. As you have said, the past history showed that balloting only occurs >1km for Phase 2C. But also understand that there are alot of new flats around ZDPS.. so... :lightrod:

        Do you have any idea how many PVs are there for the 2013 and 2014 intake? Last time I heard was only about 10+, which is consider low is it? Wondering if the reason behind the low number of PV is because everyone is living <1KM and not seeing the need??

                Radin Mas may break record in history in which balloting occur in phase 2B. 51 vacancies with 52 registrations.


                The school guess has increase the intake of PV in recent years but if surface out balloting is not a good sign in Phase 2B.

                  I once overheard a staff saying that whoever applies to be PV will be in. The school takes in all applicants. Perhaps it should be more selective of the applicants.

                  Strange. With so many PVs, I wonder why the school sometimes struggles too find parents helping out in some events. :scratchhead:

                      25 SC = 1Km

                      20 SC = 1-2 km
                      6 SC = Beyond 2 km.

                      Looks like the PR have to go into balloting. 52 Vacancies (Phase 2B)

                        R u talking abt RMPS. If so I hope there only 51 vacancies for P2B if iam not wrong. Then it means that all the vacancies r taken up by SC? No chance of balloting for PRs?
