Would prefer to have the option to have that.


It means for jy they won’t have option for kid to go higher Chinese class from p1, but tamp pri has that option from p1?

Hi anyone has any experience to share for junyuan and tampines primary? In terms convenience like:

- student care facility, need waiting list etc.?
- school bus arrangement, is it flexible like it’s available even if child attend cca or student care.
- any other opinion

Thank you!

Newbie question:


Choosing between Junyuan and Tampines primary at the moment and notice that on MOE website that JY doesn’t offer higher mother tongue but tampines primary does. Is there any reason for that?

Dilemma in choosing the school now as both school are about equal distance from our place. CCA doesn’t has alot of diff as well.

Any advice or experience to share from gurus here? Thanks!

SC 1-2km


Looking at Junyuan and Tampines Primary…both should be safe so far? Anyone know if both school has student care?

Other sch within 2km (all 1-2km) are Damai, Poiching, St Hildas so basically no chance right…

Is 50% chance a good minimum threshold to go ahead with ballot? It depends on one’s risk appetite but wanna see usually what’s everyone’s opinion…

Hi all, how’s the chance for SC 1-2km for 2C Jun Yuan and tampines primary? Any of them is safe for 2CS?

I posted earlier. See link above

Poi Ching is -43 and St hilda is -35

Most likely both <1km ballot. Even in a situation where poi Ching encounter a balloting for 1-2km, the odd is v low.

You can adopt a wait and see for the results to unveil to you, look at the last day and then proceed to apply.

Please look for alternative as the odds is stacking against you.

Can I confirm that I can be on standby on 1 Aug and check the latest application status for both poiching and st Hilda's at says 12pm, and go to apply the one that doesn't have application more than available slot? Is there a way to see the applicant whether how many are less than 1km and how many are 1-2km?

Thanks!

Since you are > 1km from St Hilda Primary School, you can skip the school and not waste your time.

Your only hope, and a slim one at that, is Poi Ching. By the end of second day, you should have an idea from MOE website your chances (I suspect applicants > vacancies). On the last day, you can drop by the school and ask (nicely) for a breakdown if they do not have a display for it.

Your more realistic option, would be to consider another school.[/quote]I thought poiching is in a worse situation than st hildas as it's minus 43 vs Hilda's minus 35?

The other 3 schools that are within 2 km are junyuan , tampines primary and damai. Should I go for them at 2C or try my luck at poiching first and go for the other 3 at 2CS phase?

Hello all,

I am new to primary school registration and would like to ask the following question. A bit of background is I am staying 1-2km for both poiching and st hildas which are the nearest school to my place. No other nearer school that's within 1km *sob sob* and I am only qualified for 2C, both me and child are SC. And I've heard both schools usually required balloting so I was wondering:
- I understood that the website of application will be updated daily for 2C during the few days of registration period. Should I wait until the last day of application and check the number of application first before deciding to go to poiching or st hildas? Does it even work that way?
- Is the best way to assess risk of 2c is to look at the actual applicant in 2018 and compare to the vacancy left? There is no way for us to see if the applicant are belonging to less than 1km or 1-2km?
- any other useful advice for first time newbie?

Thank you all!
