2014 P1 Registration Exercise for 2015 In-Take

[MR06]

Bukitteresa:

To: MR06 and Meiah,

Thanks for your views. It's two different schs for my options: as catholic, I wld want my ds who is catholic to attend mission sch but not academically focused. Under 2B, I can choose another sch to avoid balloting but will be far though. Under 2C, it's popular neighborhood sch but balloting inside 1km is a risk to take. You r right, shd try 2B first and if failed then still got the option for 2C. In order not to make ds travel too far to sch, I hv to relocate for good I suppose. Never thought I need to do that until I started monitoring this yr's registration. Am certainly not one who just choose the sch because it's popular or w high PSLE results, I believe an overall balance environment is more important and ds doesnt need to stress in the important 6 yrs of growing up. Life as adult is stressful enough so I do not want to deprive him of some carefree yrs at his tender age.

Good to hear you had thought it through and made up your mind.

If you are a grassroot leader, you will be able to register under P2B.

If you are in the school advisory committee, you will be able to register your child under P2A1, not Phase 1.

School advisory comm members usually appointed, by MP or Minister. Some senior grassroots or PAP party members could also be in there. Better think of other more practical approach....

By the way, NC has also increased the minimum clocked hours to 80! I guess that's why it started the PV for 2015 intake now, to allow more time for PV to clock the 80 hours.

thanks class monitor & tim tim.. yup. better think of more practical approach!


i wrote to Rosyth and they say they will make a decision whether to proceed with PV or not by end of this year..

For Nan Chiau, do you know if they will limit the number of PVs? As in, if there are usually only about 30 vacancies, then they will only take in 30 vacancies so that there will be less chances of balloting? or they don't care and just take in as many PVs (free labour! ha) as possible?

thanks all! quite sian hor.. must do all these things...
