Last time I checked propertyguru.com.sg.

wow, you reply really fast.Thanks again! I will go to check the website.

Sigh, now got to think about buying a new property. The price of a condo located within 1km of ACSP should be quite high....

It appears that we can only explore (a) being a volunteer, and (b) stay within 1km , to increase the chances of admission. Is that correct?

ACS (Barker) primary does not have parent volunteer service.

Phase 2B -
this is for the parents who are members of the Methodist church.
You need a letter from the pastor.

Hi phtthp,

Thanks for the information.

FYI, I have checked with ACS Primary, and they replied this morning that our son will not be qualify as \"a child whose parent is a former student of the primary school of choice\" by the fact that my husband studied at ACS (Secondary) School (located at Barker Road) during 1986 to 1990.

About the church membership referred in 2B, I myself am not from a Methodist Church, and my husband is not a Christian.

So now, the only effort we may consider is to move to a place located within 1km of ACS (Primary) in order to increase the chances of admission. However, I do understand, even we take the trouble to change house, there is no gurantee of success if balloting is required (which is most likely to be the case under phase 2C).

After these few days's research, now I understand, the primary school education system in Singapore is quite unique. In order to be admitted into a popular school, not easy.

But the email said it was a full school only between 1994 and 1998.
I'm checking with them further whether those studying in ACS(Barker)
within that period can enjoy phase 2A registration.

Those studying in ACS (Barker) between 1994 and 1998....rejoice!!
[quote]Yes, the old boys who studied at ACS(Br) during the period: 1994 to 1998, will be able to entrol [sic] their sons' into ACSP via Phase 2A1 / 2A2.

Don't know abt the price range but you must keep in mind the timeline. For new condos, the TOP must not be later than 31 Dec 2015. As for resale, I think there's also a timeline. If do not meet within the timeframe, the new add will not be recognised for P1 registration purpose.

Good that you post the letter here.

Thank you

[quote]Dear Sir

My apologies for giving you the wrong information. I just confirmed with my Admin Manager that ACS(Barker Rd) and ACS(Primary) were 1 full school during the period between 1994 to 1998.

I am also curious whether those studying in ACS (Barker) between 1994 and 1998 can enjoy phase 2A registration.

FYI, My husband studied at ACS (Barker) (Secondary School) between 1986 and 1990, and ACS (Primary) replied this morning that we can't enjoy phase 2A registration. The father must be an old boy from ACS (Primary) in order to enjoy phase 2A registration.

Thank you.

Yes, for new condo, my understanding is that, if the new condo's address is used for P1 registration purpose, we must move in the new condo by the end of Child's P2 year.

For resale, I am not sure about the timeline at the moment. Will try to find out. My understand is that, for resale, we need to move in before p1 registration starts. Although there is no clear requirement as in how long in advance we move in, but in order to change our NRIC address, we will need to show the unitilities bill to prove we indeed stay there, which means, we still need to move into the condo at least a few months before the registration starts.

skysky2018,


Not to probe but becos you mentioned that your hubby was fr M’sia. Your child is Singapore Citizen? The new policy eminplemented last yr gives pirority to SC in the event of balloting.

Hi SAHM_TAN,

Yes, my child is singapore citizen upon birth. Both my husband and myself become singapore citizens before our son was born.

Thanks!
