Just to share my girl is also 1st child to apply for NCPS last year under phase 2B. During registration then, admin staff informed that we most likely no need to ballot cos we stay within 1km, but told us to check MOE website then for details. True enough within 1km under phase 2B no balloting. Not sure about other phases tho.[/quote]For more detailed and accurate balloting history for NCPS, you may refer to http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/seng-kang.
Did you find out from them which phase they applied? Likely Phase 2C. For Phase 2B (if you're eligible), no ballot if you stay within 1km. However, this is past records and may not apply for future intake, more so if there is reduction of intake due to single session.timtim:

wonder if anyone try the school alumni - creative writing class?
like to know the feedback from parents.
very concern with my gal composition, especially SA1 is round the corner. -
I think you can expect the intake to drop soon especially when the new primary school opens nearby. currently, there’s only anchor green to absorb the excess of the residents nearby but when this new pri school opens, u can expect ncps’ intake to drop significantly.
where exactly is this new pri school? it’s at the junction of seng kang east way and anchorvale link. it’s the new construction site some 50m away. they’ve started piling so u can expect the school to open its doors as early as 2013.
those non phase 1 or pv parents, u can start documenting the building of ur child’s future school esp if they’re going to go into P1 in 2013.
single session means smaller intake for ncps. more schools nearby means smaller intake. all signs point to it so as parents, we shud stop living in a fairytale world la. otherwise, we’ll end up being disappointed. -

I have checked with MOE this morning and they replied there's no new pri school at the said location but there's one in Fernvale Rd (in 2013) near Fernvale LRT. I believe the construction there is for the new General Hospital which was announced few months back and not pri school.

Anyway, I don't agree that just because of a new pri school nearby, the intake at NCPS will/must drop when it goes single session. There are pri school (famous ones) that maintain the same intake even after going single session. It also doesn't do any good to school since the catchment will be smaller for bright students to boost its ranking. I believe as far as possible, NCPS will want to keep its current P1 intake of 300. Lets wait for more details to unveil.
In fact, with AGPS and NCPS, they have served the demand well and I see no need for a new pri school at the vicinity. -

I am confuse also now. It's MOE staff who called and replied me over phone. He told me there's only 1 new pri school in Sengkang West in the next few yrs. If really it's a pri school, isn't it weird to have it next to upcoming Hospital? What a combination!http://www.sengkang.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12184&sid=8c12148d3632f1775f038469e3120c3a

The hospital will not be opposite the temple, it will be nearer to the Sengkang Hub , where the polyclinic is.
There will be a new EC next to this new primary school.
