[Bukit Merah] Primary Schools

[quote]Touch wood, should your child be unsuccessful in the P2C balloting, you just need to go up to the Principal or Vice-Principal (either one or both will be present for the balloting) and put down your child's name in the wait list.[/quote]
Wonder how they choose those in waiting list, first come first serve or according to phase and distance? If according to phase and distance, those in ph 2b will get priority over those in 2c. But it's gd to put in waiting list as not all may put in waiting list, then got chance -
Hi all! Any idea why Is Blangah Rise Primary school is so unpopular?

Yes maybe need to feedbacl to MP or MOE where suggest build another 2 schools in Tiong Bahru area. The current ZDPS have limited capacity intake for the students. :lightrod:
I suddenly recalled that a new primary school will be built along Alexandra Road (opposite Gan Eng Seng Secondary). Read about it 1 or 2 years ago. Totally forgot about it until just now, i passed by the land. They are doing the piling of foundation now. Guess it will be ready in 2 years' time? -
There! Found the info!

Frankly, I would suggest you enroll your child into either Radin Mas or CHIJ (kellock). Being a student from CHIJ (kellock), I would say that the school was very balanced - in academics & in a child's well-being. Now that I'm pursuing my secondary school education, I have a fellow classmate who is from Radin Mas and she has also expressed to be on the views about her school. Both schools are not only able to achieve rather pleasing results but they also encourage a well-rounded education.

From the website, you will find CHIJ Kellocks CCA. Extremely impressive. I doubt many schools can match that. CHI Kellocks education very holistic.
I went to the school to take a look last week. On arrival, a girl was pasting some posters on a pillar smiled at me. So sweet! I walked around and when I saw her again, I asked her some questions regarding the school. She was articulated very well and volunteered more information. She was so proud of her school and encouraged me that there would be no regret if I put my girl there. WOW!!! -

Do you know anybody from other schools to come to such a conclusion?

Hi Smile smile, CHIJ strength in sports and range of CCA were the key factors why I decided to choose it rather than ZDPS although I find both sch have similar programs.
Trouble_teen96 - thanks for the feedback -

Putting in waiting list is as good as zero chance. The Phase 2B being ablloted out I assuem that he/she is in the waiting list. Then with 30+ being balloted out also in the wait list?My backup plan is actually Cantoment which is 1-2 km. but looking at the situation, with only 30 over vacancies left, chances of me getting in will be very low too.
Was told that RMPS is 77 balloting for 52 vancancies.
And if my DS name wasn't called, how should I go abt to put him in the waiting list for RMPS?
Only chance is to get in at P4 where a group of 10-15 GEP being posted out. other than that you have to liase with the school principal. -

Great then maybe in P1 Registration of 2013 this school would be listed in Bukit merah area. Maybe with some publicity like Beacon what IT school then sure can draw some crowd. :imcool:
