Hi, long-time living in Tampines foreigner here, looking to get my daughter into a school for 2015 in Phase 3.


The choices are:

Junyuan, East View or Angsana. Angsana had the most seats left for Phase 2c, so the assumption is that’s the safest choice for Phase 3. But I have no idea of the quality of the three schools, do we have any parents on here with kids there at the moment? The survey here is old and swamped by St Hildas which we all know is impossible to get into!

Thanks in advance.

Hi, any parents planning to send their child to the student care centre @ Junyuan Primary? Or any parents whose child is already in there? Need more info on the available slots, waiting list etc.


Thanks in advance.

My child is in P1 in PCS tis yr. So far so gd, his teachers are very caring but strict. Expect lots of homework/assignments and tests though, especially for chinese. The kids use 2 sets of chinese texts from P1-2, the MOE HCLPS as well as the Yunyu text developed by the sch. The expectation from wat i saw in the newspaper article prev is for them to master the chinese wordbank of a P6 student by the time they complete P2. We are mainly Eng speakers at home but I am amazed his chinese improved by leaps and bound after 3+ terms in sch.

Hi, I understand that based on balloting history, there was a need to ballot even under Phase 2B for St Hilda’s?


However the eventual take up rate was lower than its capacity therefore there were slots left for Phase 2C.

Does this mean that everyone was eventually offered a slot under Phase 2B but because some rejected their slots there was balance.
Just wondering what happens if I was under Phase 2B, balloted and was unsuccessful but the successful ones chose to give up their slots. Does this mean I will be offered those slots or will it auto go into the Phase 2C pool?

Thanks!

If anyone withdraw from Phase 2B, it will be brought forward to Phase 2C.
