How can I find out the balloting history for <1km for Phase 2B ACS(P)? I only recall everyone gotta ballot even for <1km ...


Following this year's ACS(P) for Phase 2c <1km, the ratio is almost 1:2, a 50-50 chance. So stressful. If my boy doesn't get in, then he would be randomly posted to a school nearby isn't it?

How do we find out about these school group chats? Are they listed somewhere on this site?

Certainly hope you'll get in at Phase 2B, then nothing to worry at 2C. But in the event, Phase 2B wasn't successful, I won't go for ACSJ as there is usually no chance to ballot for 1-2 km applicants.

At 1-2 km, the chance at SJIJ is better although in recent years, it is also getting to be v popular where SC within 1km applicants had to ballot last year. This year, heard that there would be balloting for 1-2 km applicants, but for v small number of spaces. I don't see why you should give up ACSP at Phase 2C since it's within 1km to your place, at least there is opportunity for you to ballot. Nearer to your registration time, you can join individual school group chats. The parents there take turn to call schools and report number of applicants by distance on group chats. You can use those info to make a much better decision on whether to place your bet on ACSP or SJIJ.

Hi, I am within 1km with ACS(P) and 1-2km of ACS(J) and SJIJ. My intention is to apply for Phase 2B with ACS(P) and either of the 1-2km schools for Phase 2C. Between ACS(J) and SJIJ, which has a higher chance to get in for 1-2km Phase 2c? No point trying 2C for ACS(P) again isn't it? Please share your thoughts. Thanks!

Based on past stats is sure in.

How about 1-2km, SC?

Hi all, can anyone advise the historical for Sji phase 2C 1-2km? Will there be ballot every year?

new here. hello all. are any of your kids in their PG program? do you find it very stressful for the kid or just about right? we had a tour of the place, we are quite impressed by the curriculum, but were left abit uncertain about the prinicpal. Perhaps we didn't have time for a deeper conversation with her. what do you all think of the principal?

which branch are you referring to?

May I know for k1 curriculum, have they started ting Xie and spelling?

Do they bring home books to read weekly or day ?

Ting xie and spelling is for K2 and the words are hard! I would say its P2 level.

No books to bring home to read except the readers that are given back at the end of every term.

Thanks so much!

No problem, please be totally honest since I’m really here to learn about this complicated process. So if I’m physically staying with grandparents for 30 months, which phase will that be? Does doing pv hump my chance up?
[quote=Estéema post_id=1964214 time=1582186769 user_id=66413]OK, I try to be direct & diplomatic. :nailbite:

Use address grandparents’ only when you & yr child will be staying in that address which u hope to use to be given priority for P1 registration. Can’t use or be found out if u’re staying >2km but using address just to get in. It does matter if it’s grandparents, it matters if u’re physically staying for at least 30 mths.

It’ll be good if u’re going to stay there for yr child’s primary sch duration but what happens if u register the address but can’t get in? Will u change address for ano prime sch?

Do PV will be phase 2B, else 2C. Definitely chance up since you can apply both phases.[/quote]
