Hi,
Want to seek your advice and opinion. I am registering for p1 this year for 2021 cohort under 2c. Checked the distance calculator and we are 1.1 km away from temasek pri, which needs balloting. Does this mean that we are considered as being 1-2km away? Wondering if the distance affects anything.

We are also considering either tg katong pri or ngee ann pri. Not sure which one would be a better choice. My child is SC and we are living in the Bayshore area.

Thank you in advance. Did not know how competitive p1 registration is until now! Appreciate your help

Ngee Ann is a wiser choice.

Not just having affliation only

Of the 3 schools u mentioned, (Tanjong Katong, Ngee Ann and Temasek), Ngee Ann is the best, if you can get in

In Marine Parade area
,
Ngee Ann is the 2nd most popular highly-sought-after primary school, after Taonan. (popular, because Taonan is GEP + SAP school). But, for parents who do not hunger after nor interested in GEP school, Ngee Ann is their Top choice. Not all parents in Singapore want their kids to study, in GEP school

However,
based on your distance from ( home to school), if cannot get into Ngee Ann, then go for the school, while u still can enter, based on the distance that qualify you, on the last day of Phase 2C balloting, obtain the latest figures, after 3.45 pm afternoon (2C, last day) by distance break down for SC.

If fail to enter Ngee Ann via balloting, eg. No chance to even ballot,
either Temasek or TKPS, also good

Use one map application tool, to verify your distance

Because

This is the accurate official tool used by MOE, to confirm your actual distance. Not use any other tool, in case end up in un-necessary confusion yourself

Thank you so much for all your replies.
I used the onemap.sg.
I am likely to now consider Ngee Ann Pri. I realised that while we can see the school from my home, it is actually more than 2km from my house!
I am such a noob here. For phase 2c, how is the selection process be? Would it be SC<1km first, then the rest? We are SC but now realise that we are more than 2km away.
Appreciate all your advice
