LOLMum:I am the mum who got 2 ballot slips last year but that does not mean if I am within 1km I have 2 ballots slips and if I am > 1km I got 1. The article simply implies that if you read it carefully which is wrong.Nothing wrong with this article if you read it before the new rules kicked in this year.
Up till last year, during balloting, citizens have 2 balloting slips n pr only have one. Surprised you have not heard of it.
Some time this year before pri 1 registration started, moe changed the rules and gave citizens priority over pr in the registration.
Simple as that.

RE: [Central] Primary Schools
There is something wrong with the article.
“Those who live closest to the school of choice get more ballot slips should there be a need to ballot when there are more applicants than places available”
Never heard of that.
It should be corrected as parents got priority if they stay within 1km for each phases. -

RE: Principal of top school under investigation for hiring prost
insider:
Before AIDs evolved in 1980s, a lot of people also have the same excuse. Wait until another time even protected sex would transmit disease...emmm...this case reminds me of a male friend of mine whom I ever shared in some other posts.
Friend, about 48 years old currently, successful in career, with a U grad wife and two lovely kids, enjoy prostitution.
Legal or illegal, he will go for 'fixes' now and then. Used to be more regular when he was younger but now think 'tamer'.
His reason is wife is not 'hot' enough and will never 'co-operate' with him in the 'stunts' that he wants and so he finds it 'justifiable' to pay for services. (His theory: wife must be 'decent' and so sexual fantasies are not wife's job to satisfy.)
His position is such that he doesn't go around sleeping with friends' girlfriends/spouses or go around molesting others or find under-aged girls and he meets his needs by paying and so that should not be 'too bad'.
A nice husband, father, child (to his parents), and friend to have (see such an 'honest' man who can share with his childhood friends about his 'hobby' and as friends, we don't judge him at all...)
Maybe the principal involved in the case belongs to the same 'category' just that unfortunately he gets caught...
Men...come in many colours...
Again, we are talking about executing self control, loyalty, trust.
It makes us no differenc from animals if our moral standards becoming lower and lower. -

problem is .... when MOE appoint a male to head the leadership position of a primary / Secondary school/ JC, how to tell the morals of a male character ?
They may need to spend some money for PI to investigate.....worth it or not? I am not sure. -
RE: All About Home Addresses
tigerlily:
1) Both parents should have the same address, this is the experience learned by my friend which her address is different from the hubby and got rejected.Can I get an opinion from you guys regarding a question I have?
If I were to own a condo and either buy or rent a resale HDB flat, can I continue to stay (and ic address continue to show) the condo's address? Or have to definitely
stay in the hdb?
I read in the previous pages that I can change my address to another house in the few days between phase 2b and 2c, to try for another school that hopefully won't need balloting at <1km (if kena rejected at p2b for first school).
Does anyone have any experience in this?
Would MOE /school get suspicious of 2 different addresses in a matter of days?
Of course I would keep both houses n not rent out either so that I could stay in either,
after successful p1 registration ?
Thanks!
2) It is also too obvious for you to change different addresses within such a short period of time. It may not be able to found out during your registration, however, if there is any auditing after the registration, and if you are being spotted, then your's child school place will be forfeited. It is also wasteful of resources as once this address changed, all the government agencies will have that changed as well.
3) By right, if you own a condo, you can't buy HDB flat.
The best is to choose the property that can give you the higher chance. If the Condo can give you higher chance of entering your favorite school, and you are the legitimate owner of the condo, even you rent out later, I believe no one will question you.
However, if your favorite school is with the HDB flat you rent, then use your HDB address asap. At least then you can have some reason why you change back your address to Condo if you are not successful in P2b. (end of rental period, need to move back to condo etc). -
RE: All About Pri 1 Registration for Foreigners & Phase 3
sc88:
Certificate from PD is good enough. Sometimes, the government registry does not have the full information. Like my case, they said my son lack of one vaccination whereby I need to photocopy back the PD's certificate to ask them to add it back.sakuratattoo:
my DD is in K1 now and we will go through this next year. im already preparing for it. (well at least the needed documents).
we went here when she was 2+yo. all of her vaccinations were from the Philippines. I know one of the requirement is the immunization record. i also know there is a central repository for that here but I we havent submitted hers yet. is this necessary for all schools? i have a certificate here from her PD listing also all the immunizations she had. will that be enough? or do we need to do something else? or provide other proof to the school?
Is better you call and check with the MOE .

NewKSmum:
Probably the author wanted to make up the number 3 school when asked to.Hi,
Rulang has been headed by female principal all these years, how could it be this school ? And it is clearly reported that this MALE (男性)principal resigned from the school suddenly in DECEMBER 2011 !
In fact, if you follow the thread, someone already posted the real school name with a link to the discussion thread on the principle suddenly resigned from the school in Dec 2011. -
RE: Principal of top school under investigation for hiring prost
Very ironic to see the school’s webpage with the 4 big Chinese words.
With just one person’s lust, the school becomes topic of the town.
The trust and respect that placed onto him is being tarnished.
The family would also be affected as they become the target of the reporters.
So really in Singapore, everything can do but just don’t get caught? Is this the real spirit?
