Parents of one-year-old move to be near brand-name school

Having a house within 1km of a popular school is definitely a good bet. That was exactly my thoughts when we bought a house within 1km of TNS few years ago.

I am staying 2 blocks away from Tao Nan. And was unsuccessful in balloting. Ended up in a school that is 2km further away. House nearby does’nt guarantee 100% in.

So sorry to hear tt.
I m just across the rd frm TN. But i choose NA cos i din wanna go thru the stress and uncertainty of balloting.
Well, i shd say all the schs in the MP area is reputable. Just depend on the parents perference.

We shifted to MP coz there are many good schools from primary to higher secondary within 1 km for us to choose. So we are happy that we need not move again for at least the next 10 years or so. Moving is such a chao for us.

There's only 4 places left for ngee ann in phase 2c(s). will be very competitive for those less than 1km.
