Would anyone know seats vs applicants for Chongzheng?

within 1km; considering this school.

P2C

Chongzheng - 86 applicants vs 65 places

Gongshang - 81 applicants vs 78 places

St Hilda - 85 applicants vs 42 places

Thanks again!! You have answers to most of my questions.
it is 76%, 96% and 45% proabailities.

I am within 1 km for chonzheng only.

I came to know that St Hildas is moving to new place in upper changi road. So do we calculate the distance based on the new school address?

I think to get into SHPS you have to be very lucky… too many people vying for limited vacancies.

Can anyone advise whether Poi Ching is a good school?

[mamachen]

Hihi, poi Ching has historically good school, and with high emphasis on Chinese. If I'm not wrong, they only offer Chinese as second language.


Btw, any feedback on junyuan pri?

And parents here, just in case you may not know, shps moving to holding school at Bedok for 2 years to build additional building to cater the move into single session.

Hope this thread goes hyper again in 2013 registration!!! :imcool:

Happy new year!!!! :celebrate:

The category your child is in does not depend on the distance.

Please refer to the MOE website below:

Apply, as in apply for P1 or apply as PV? :scratchhead:

If it is P1 registration, yes, you will only need to apply in 2014.
