[Bukit Timah] Primary Schools

[phtthp]

babyA:

my DD is due for P1 in 2016.
Based on the statistics you posted, am I right to infer that for HPPS/RGPS, there's no balloting for Phase 2B? If I do PV but do not stay within 1km, there's still an allocated place?

you’re looking at wrong info – because you were looking at Phase 2C data.

for Phase 2B , last year (2012) :-

i)
There was balloting for Henry Park primary, under 2B.
Balloting was conducted for Singapore citizenship children, residing outside 2km of the school.

19 registered, 12 places.

refer 2B detail :-

ii)
for RGPS, -
last year (2012) Total intake was 9 classes (270 pupils).

No balloting involved, because :-
42 registered, 42 places. (both numbers happen to match coincidentally)
PVs (out of these 42) staying beyond 2 km - ALL got in.

each year is different.
for HPPS and RGPS -
Total number of Singapore citizenship babies born are different, each batch.
If you do PV, there is no guarantee that you’re automatically allocated a guaranteed seat, even in 2B. Besides PV, another group of parents that also come under Phase 2B are Grassroot Activity leaders.
Once demand exceed vacancie(s), balloting occur.

eg: if one day condition change(s), eg: RGPS intake were to drop to 8 classes, then balloting likely to take place, within 1 km.

Hi there,


I’m new in this forum. Still confused with all the abbreviations used here.

I would like to know more about Bukit Timah Primary School.
Is it a good school? how is the academic level there, the diversity of the students, the teacher, the school environment…
Any mommies here can give me some input?
Thanks a lot in advance.
