      Thanks. How come got rejected? I applied for PV quite late last year. Can't remember exactly when. Think sometime in Jun or Jul and they say they will call in Dec but they didn't call me. I have kept calling them asking for job to do. I only started doing PV in Apr.

      I think maybe too many pple applied.... we started enquring since 2011.... and the school never replied us until had to go to school to ask if they have rec'd our application....

      then last week got rejection email from them.... they didn't even send us a proper rejection letter.... or is there a proper rejection letter being sent to house in 1st place?????

            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. 😛
            SA1,2 - Semestral Assessment Test
            CA1,2 - Continual Assessment Test
            Yes, not exam but call assessment test.
            Cos, i read Zhangde do not have. And Newtown do not have till P3.
            So am checking does GES have it?

            BTW, have is better or not?

                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

                Hi All,
                Just failed to get in my daughter to CHIJ Kellock because we're PR within 1-2km. 😢

                Now looking at other school as alternative even though I don't have much choice. I'm thinking about BRPS because it's very close to my place.
                Anybody can brief me about BRPS? Seems that this is the least popular school in Bukit Merah area.

                How is it compare to other school such as Cantonment (which is apparently a new school but seem more popular), Stamford, Newton, Queenstown?

                  Hi Brainiac,

                  Heights area...... BRPS is the nearest school in the area....

                    Titank, what is your rationale for recommending Cantonment? It's a new school and likewise, hasn't 为校争光, if that is what you are looking at. 🤷


                    Remember two years ago when RMPS didn't perform so well at PSLE, the top scorer for Blangah Rise was actually higher than RMPS'. I am not sure of the other statistics, though.
                    I was told that last year RMPS PSLE top pupil was transferred from Blangah Rise Primary School, poor Blangah Rise Primary School. if good pupil always try to transfer to other school before PSLE, how to espect the school to 为校争光
