[Bukit Merah] Primary Schools

[ksks3mum]

This year’s registration is kind of unexpected, outcome no longer can estimate base on past three years data. Can someone provide birth rate for 2007,2008, must do the planing now.

Maozai:

Titank, how do you get the stats for GESPS? I was there and I asked one of the teachers but she couldn't tell me a specific number.

Someone called for me to check GESPS. I just standby in case Kellock push me out then I still have GESPS as a final backup.

Any update for zhangde??

Zhangde Pri tel very hot until nobody answer. Everyone rush into this school where RMPS & CHIJ (Kellock) they stand no chance. Tuesday I obtained the information which the staff said 167 staying at 1km require to be ballot. :yikes:

mousey27:

Zhangde should be about 150 SC within 1km! Good new for Zhangde, just now one parent came over to cancel her child placement who belong to Phrase 1A ! Meaning the total no available should increase by 1 ie 124!

Wow 150 SC in 1km? Where does all these came from?The new flats? :siao:

Ivy Teo:

How about CHIJ? I called earlier was told that the quote exceed. 103 applicants register. But she mentioned 1-2km still safe. So you stay put at RM.

Yes total about 57 consist of 1km & 1-2km which are in the safe zone for CHIJ Kellock.

The birthrates do not tell you anything. Suggest you try target the area that you are looking at & I believe the forum members can share thier input.

Yes this year P1 registration a lot of unexpected situation surface out. School like Gan Eng Seng 1st time exceeds the quota. Meaning demand more than supply.

Those taking part in the ballotwish all good luck. Possible schools with vacancies in Phase 2C Supplementary as follow:

Tabulate base on Bt Merah, Queenstown & Central

Blangah Rise Pri = 180
Cantonment Pri = 31
Standford Pri =72
Queenstown Pri = 73

ksks3mum, CHIJ only has SA2 in P2. No exams for P1 and P2. Only topical tests.

Thanks.
How about GESP? I heard school has SA1, SA2,CA1,CA2 starting P1? higher Chinese start p3?

hi ksks3mum,

please search and go to thread on GAN ENG SENG PRIMARY SCHOOL.... it seems like one parent say higher chinese starts at P2..... i am not sure abt SA and CA at P1, P2....

so far comments abt the school seems overall positive..... principal seems good.....

anyway i am also trying to find out more abt the school so if any 1 has experience with that school, do share.... tks.....

On tues night, moe website showed 110 total applicants for ph 2c for rmps but last night reduced to 84 because the school called those no chance to even ballot to withdraw, not to waste their chance. Quite ethical of rmps to do that

[Maozai]

ksks3mum, I thought MOE announced that all schools were to drop exams for P1 starting this year?


Dino, my DS should have a confirmed place in GESPS. Update you next year regardingly DS’s experience in sch.
